I have no idea what I'm doing with WordPress, is it possible to do steps while hearing instructions?

Hi Tamia!

If you aren't already I would highly recommend following along whilst the videos are being played. This is a great way of learning as you are actually applying the knowledge you are learning into something which you can later reference if you need to check something back out!

Hi Tamia,

I'd recommend just watching the videos at first if your having trouble keeping up, thats what i did. If i wasn't sure about something id watch it again as it only takes a few minutes.
This way you have a better chance answering the questions and completing the code challenge.
Take a few notes the second time around if your unsure about something or go back a minute or so and see it again.
More than anything, be comftable with what you've just watched, your not expected to take it all in at the start, go as slow as you need to and you'll eventually see it falling into place.

Good luck.

yes. watch the videos all the way through at first and take notes, then watch them again whilst working along with the video, pressing pause when you need to. Working along with the videos can be a little bit hard if you've only got a small monitor like on a laptop. To solve that problem you can always connect your laptop up to a monitor so you have a dual display, or borrow another laptop from someone who lives with you, have the videos play on that and work along on your own laptop.
