Reviews for WordPress Courses

"Ben did an excellent job with presenting the WordPress material and making certain that the students were understanding everything. He also focused more on the areas that the students needed and wanted. I feel like I'm at a place where I can really use my WordPress skills. Ben provided us with a lot of great resources going forward and he emailed us additional training notes."

by Tony B

"Jon was great! I had very limited experience with WordPress and Jon really got me passed the surface level of my understanding. This class was truly very helpful and I would recommend it to anyone!"

by Patrick B

"Excellent course. I came out with a much better understanding of how Wordpress works. Jonathan answered some pressing questions I've had for a while that I was not able to figure out before. Thank you!"

by Denise C

"Greg did a good job explaining the introductory steps to Wordpress. I also appreciated his training on optimizing photos for the web. The facility is comfortable with nice big computer screens, comfortable chairs and desk. I appreciate the break room and the snacks."

by Ana Luisa C

"Jonathan was exceptional in his delivery, knowledge and organization. Also he was open and patient to our questions throughout the class, no matter the level. This course was informative and Jonathan made it entertaining and useful at the same time for all students involved. All 5-stars, awesome, clear, useful and he already provided so many resources. The quality of the course was outstanding"

by Ana E

"Great pace for the class and the instructor was very accommodating to different career backgrounds/roles. My only complaint is that the classroom was too cold"

by Hilda J

"David has the best temperament for teaching this class! His easygoing approach and encouraging attitude helps instill confidence and demystifies the tech side of things. I would definitely take a class with him again. I learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed myself."

by Lara H

"Great demeanor, good interpersonal rapport with students, confident, composed. Articulate. He had a diverse appreciation for and understanding of different website needs and could engage with all students regardless of their level. I took this course knowing it would cover a lot of things I already knew. I think it would be a very good course for someone who is looking to build a WP site from the beginning or is at a very entry-level for an existing WP site. I myself gained a lot of knowledge about areas of WP and how they function together and govern the display, outcomes, etc. and am appreciative of that knowledge that I can now combine with my experience, ideas, and network contacts to learn more about how it applies to my company website. I also feel a lot more confident in my ability to build my own WP website should I wish to do that for fun or a creative outlet or a freelance business."

by Lori R

by Marybeth M

Even with my little understanding of websites and the internet at the start of the class, I was able to follow along. When anyone had questions he would restate what we didn't understand and walk us through what was needed. Thank you for this great class. I am sure to take the next level when I am ready for it. The on-line lessons were great."

by Katie S

"The Photoshop class was nothing short of excellent. Greg was highly organized, enthusiastic about his subject, was able to give real world examples, answered all questions and was able to point me in the right direction on my individual questions. I have taught many online classes on Computer software as well as teaching at other schools in the classroom setting so I am alway analyzing how other teachers teach. As a Adjunct Professor at a college I consider myself a student of what makes a good teacher and Greg has those skills. He has the ability to be very personable and clear in the material he is presenting. Obviously I learned a great deal. Thanks to Greg! The book and the headphones were an excellent idea. I will enjoy reading the material. Everything went well and I'll be back for another class."

by Roy S

by Constance F

He molded the training to fit our abilities and objectives and made himself very available for questions. There were only 3 of us in the class which was helpful."

by Stephanie

"The WordPress training at AGI with Jonathan was terrific. He is a great communicator and was patient with our questions for the entire session. I feel that I learned the program and was able to see its potential. The class size was small, with just one other student, so we got personal attention. My only compaint was my chair on the first day, which wasn't comfortable, but we swapped it out for another on the second day of class."

by Pamela B

"I was satisfied with the Word Press course - it was great. The classroom was super cold. I recommend students dress warmly as the A.C. is chilly."

by Diana V

"WordPress class was great. Jessica was very patient and knowledgeable, a pleasure to work with her!"

by Ruth L

by Brent M

"Jonathan was an excellent WordPress instructor and tailored the class to our needs. I was impressed that AGI ran the class with only 2 of us. Impressive. Even more so was how flexible they were when we encountered a New York snowstorm with rescheduling class. Also gladly surprised that we received a thick WordPress manual. Fantastic experience overall."

by Nikki F

by Tony A

by David S

"There was more html coding than I expected. I had hoped that WordPress would let me avoid code, but the teacher explained everything clearly."

by Scott A

"David was very helpful and funny, making class enjoyable. Was always kind and patient. It was very helpful that it was a hands on class by giving each student their own computer to build the site and do it themselves instead of just watching and listening to the instructor. This was a good way to learn WordPress."

by Chelsea G

"David knows his subject and ran the WordPress class in a relaxed and professional manner."

by Pedro M

"The jump from intro to wordpress into the advanced wordpress class is a big transition. I needed more time to practice between the classes. Jessica adapted the class to give me more practice building a website (awesome). This was more beneficial than overloading me with info that I wouldn't be using right away."

by Paul A.

"I really liked that the WordPress class was so interactive. Frequent questions were welcomed. We all took turns presenting our sites at the end of the class."

"This workshop day was a fantastic addition. Having 3-4 people for a full day workshop like this was fantastic after taking a fundamentals class. It allowed us to go back to work and apply what we had learned and then come back with questions on what we learned and applied, or couldn't apply. Seeing where others are in their process is very beneficial as well. I highly recommend adding this to part of the fundamental class, as a special add-on session. Thank you so much!"

by Michelle H

"Jessica was a great instructor, she was engaging, responsive, interested in how we planned to use WordPress and made sure we understood the material.

by Stacy K

"Jessica is an excellent instructor and extremely knowledgeable in Web design and Wordpress."

by Steve M

"We were lucky enough to have just two of us in the class- Jessica sat in between us so we got a load of very focused attention and guidance. It was awesome. I feel much more confident in maneuvering through our WordPress website now rather than making attempts blindly and trouble shooting as I have for the past two years. Jessica has a very pleasant and patient teaching style. Great Class!"

by Karen M

"David is a great instructor, I really enjoyed the class and learned a lot. It was helpful to have a discussion prior to class to understand the scope of the class. David, further outlined what we would accomplish in the day when class began, and we were able to cover it all.

by Leah D

"I took the online wordpress class and had no issues. The instructor was clear and answered all my questions."

by Daniela W

"This was a great day for me - Jessica helped me to make real progress on my idea for a prototype and gave me the tools and frameworks to continue working on it on my own. She has a great demeanor - confident in what she knows but also very approachable, really listening and incorporating real examples into her teaching. Would definitely take a class with her again!

I look forward to attending additional training. I am interested in the HTML/CSS training and the next Wordpress Training especially if an intermediate class is created."

by Robert D

"I thought the first day was a little slow when we were installing WordPress. I saw more of the "advanced" stuff I wanted to learn in the second day of the WordPress class. The instructor was great and I enjoyed the class."

by Sandra L

"Good idea to change name to WordPress Custom Theme Course. Would have liked more on the plugins and widgets. I guess "Extra" Advanced? More for the Developer than the designer. Great class! Thank you."

by Chris H

"Jessica was always calm and professional, and was able to resolve the student's issue, if not immediately then during the breaks in order to keep the rest of the class moving along pace. Being new to WordPress, I didn't really know what to expect from the class. As promised, it was a lot of technical info for a novice user, but the more exposure I have to WordPress, the more familiar it becomes."

by Patti P

"Received a book for reference which is good"

by Mildred G

"Pace was good, although it felt a bit rushed at the very end of the day."

by Yola C

"Expertise by fellow class members was a bit all over the place, but the instructor handled it well."

by Shawn C

"I was intimated coming into this class, but I was provided some relief before I even left home. David reached out with an email and asked for my background, and let me know that I would be adequately prepared to participate in this session. The class is hands-on, and my instructor, David, is articulate and patient. I would definitely recommend this class to friends and / or colleagues. I'm glad we didn't just go through the manual and practice each page as it we came upon it. Instead, the exercises were clearly thoughtful and presented in an easy-to-follow manner."

by Julie K

"Excellent! Loved it. I will be coming back."

Still have a lot to learn to do a redesign of the website, but look forward to seeing what will be offered in the Advanced WordPress class. We had a very small group, so we were able to actually take a look into our individual sites as well as the test site. Very helpful to get feedback from everyone in the class."

by Patti P

"I received a one-on-one tutorial session because I was the only student registered. My responses might have been different if it had been a class setting."

by Catherine S

"Although I have experience in Wordpress I felt the instructor was very engaging, great speaker and I did learn a thing or two."
