I've been watching the Hob Bosold study videos which seems to be very helpful for me. But I would like to know how long the time is between lessons to give me a reference for my own progress. Was each lesson every week or every month?  Thank you.

Hello joed, I'm glad you're

Hello joed, I'm glad you're enjoying his lessons. They were generally every two weeks, with sometimes a month between lessons due to a busy schedule.

Thanks. It's helpful for me

Thanks. It's helpful for me to know this so I can gauge my progress relative to his. I realize erveryone is different but I figure he and I are both average learners so progress should be similar. I believe I read somewhere you're redoing the site and I request/suggest you put the dates in the lesson titles. Thanks again!

Thanks for the input joed.

Thanks for the input joed. Unfortunately Hob is no longer taking lessons (life got very busy for him), and I didn't make note of the dates he took those lessons.

So, is it safe for me to

So, is it safe for me to estimate that Hob completed the 10 lessons in about 8 or 9 months then? Again, this is just to get an idea of what I should anticipate my progress to be in 8 or 9 months.

Yes, I think that is

Yes, I think that is accurate. Level 1-3 material generally is three months for each level, as an average for students. Levels 4-6 is commonly 4-5 months each.

Sounds good. I'm not

Sounds good. I'm not expecting to play Whammer Jammer like Magic Dick any time soon but it helps me know about where I should be by the end of the year! Thanks.
