One final word – the biggest challenge for some students appears to be self-discipline. Some students have difficulty handling the flexibility of the lesson scheduling. You need to set aside time to do the lessons on a regular basis so that you will not get behind. Decide each week when you will complete the lessons and take the quizzes, then do your best to stick with your plan!
