because one of the early steps, I was told to press one of the buttons then she said it will look like this ,but when I did it looked completely different maybe this is because Roblox updated it or maybe I did it wrong which is less likely but there is no problem after or before that.

My child and I are happy and engaged so far. We have only done a few lessons, but the pace feels appropriate.

at the start it teachs u basic things. but it slowy turns into actuall helpful coding.

The curse was ok, but it was to simple for my opinion, i want to build good games, with shooting mechanics, bombs, and more... *She didn't even showed how to add the run tool, or the HD Admin(I already know how to do this but not everyone know ) so you just need to add more and harder lessons.
