Hello RTW friends! In recent weeks, many of you discovered a bug in our site that was causing lessons after April 9 to show as complete, regardless of whether you had completed them or not. It took some work, but we've redesigned the page from the ground up, eliminated the error, made a change to the navigation that will allow you to load multiple months at a time, and reduced the size of the grid on all devices, which should make it a little easier see on mobile devices. Thanks for your patience!
