It depends on how quick a learner you are?

If you only need to hear things 1 time, then yes.

Chances are that you will need to do alot of practice after you've completed the course to really "build sites as you like".

Take more courses on Treehouse, and just practice by building websites with what you have learned so far, and then come back and ask for help as you learn more :)

But the best way to practice is to JUST BUILD WEBSITES! :)

If you are looking for work you can try odesk.com or guru.com. Make a little money on the side while you practice building simple client websites. You will find yourself quickly researching and asking for help while you try to solve a clients problem. The downside to this is that you will ahve to offer your services for next to nothing, even free, just to build up your portfolio. I started designing websites for clients on craigslist for free just to be able to showcase them in my portfolio. All they had to do was pay the hosting and domain fees.

Once you are comfortable you can start hosting client websites yourself and just charge them monthly an extra 10-15 bucks a monbth on top of hosting fees. You pay the hosting fees and pocket the extra 10-15bucks every month. build 10 websites and you are making an extra 100-150 bucks residual cash every month. If they decie not to pay, you just shutdown the hosting and use it for another client.

Depending on your skill you could charge more or less, offer a bouy-out for hosting ownership. Start with easy jobs. Make sure you include terms and conditions. People will flock to you for free websites Residual income is the way to go. I am amost making a residual 250 a month as of this message on very simple websites. I learned everything here on treehouse. Once you finish the main course and even start the second one you will be very well on your way to be an efficient designer.

I hope this advice helps you or anyone else looking to make an extra few bucks a month.
