Two different courses?

Had more nightmare problems with the system last night - whenever I tried to move people to breakout rooms, the programme kept freezing up (not responding) on the screen.  The Powerpoint froze on two occasions, too and I had to reload it.  Will talk to Adobe today. I suspect it's glitches with the new system.

Had a bright idea this morning.  I could offer a 'foundation level' course with just 4 or 5 hour long sessions covering parts of speech and verb tenses, active and passive ie just the nomenclature, and then a further add-on going over some of the more tricky parts of the grammar eg present perfect, relative clauses, the future etc.  This would mean that I could offer the first one very cheaply and a lot of people might feel that this was all they needed (even if it really wasn't, but at least it'd be something and it'd be affordable for everyone.)
