I absolutely loved the Blogging 101 course by Teakisi. The knowledge Salha has is evident from the advice that she gives, testament to her years of experience in the field. The amount of content in this course is of incredible value. The step by step process she has produced is clear cut and easy to follow. I thoroughly enjoyed the live demo to see how to create a blog post. She was able to answer all of my queries regarding how to do well as a future blogger. If you really want to start a blog, this course will give you a solid foundation to do just that. She condenses so many days, weeks, even months of research, into a concise programme. I can see this course being delivered in schools, colleges, and more, because of the ease in accessibility, set-up and content. Thank you so much taking your time to deliver the course, I’m very excited at the prospect of starting my own blog!
This course has given me a comprehensive view of resources that I can use to design my own blog. I loved the step by step guide, and Salha showed a high level of expertise and professionalism. Highly recommended!
