They production value is very low. The background is unattractive (a room or office in the instructors home). The camera is too close and at a bad angle. Looks like I'm looking up the guys nose. The instructors speaking cadence and tone is grating and saccharine. He shares way too much about himself and his personal life, none of which is really relevant to the course material. It was a waste of my time.
