Cons: Asked questions before things were went over to know the answer instead of after going over that information. Sometimes have to repeat sections to be able to go to the next due to pausing to write information for studying purposes.

Pros: Found to be informative and direct. Interactive features helped to learn. Can learn at own pace and within my own time frame due to being online and the availability that allows.
