"Recently I decided to master Wordpress (…). I tried several ebooks and online tutorials but none of them explain things as clear as you did. I really like the approach you took to train your students.! (...) I know providing a course is hard, but providing a quality course is MUCH HARDER."

(Message from student Seng Fei Yang)

"This course was exactly what I was looking for! If you are a web developer looking for an introduction on how to get started with Wordpress or how to migrate an existing website to Wordpress, this is the perfect, quick, concise starting point. Marcelo is organized, knowledgable, and to the point. I highly recommend this course."
