You need to be careful about about instructors or courses that claim to have thousands of students. You really need to know how many of those students got the course for free. Any course that is offered for free attracts students like bees to flowers. And, it's been my experience that most of the students who "purchase" a free course never really intend to spend much, if any, time in the course. I have no idea why this is. I guess they just like the idea of a free course.

Any course that has thousands of students who paid for it has a few things going for it:

1. The instructor is teaching something of interest to many students
2. The instructor is quite knowledgable
3. The instructor is very clear, both in speaking and presenting, in his/her approach. I cannot overstate how important this is. If I purchase a course and I have a hard time understanding the instructor, I'll return the course or leave a less favorable rating.
4. The course is reasonable priced
