+To help manage expectations and develop the material for this tutorial,
+we make a few possible assumptions about *who you are* as a participant
+in the tutorial, such as one or more of the following:
 
--   Assumptions
+-   You want a gentle introduction to what GitHub is and how to use it.
+-   You mostly work alone or maybe irregularly with someone else on your
+    project.
+-   You write text in documents as a main activity of your work.
+-   You are able to and are comfortable enough with only working on files
+    through a web browser interface (like GitHub's interface).
 
 While we have these assumptions to help focus the content of the course,
-if you have an interest in learning R but don't fit any of the above
-assumptions, *you are still welcome to attend the course*! We welcome
-everyone, that is until the course capacity is reached.
+if you have an interest in the tutorial but don't fit any of the
+assumptions, *you are still welcome to attend*! We welcome
+everyone, that is until capacity has been reached.
 
 In addition to the assumptions, we also have a fairly focused scope for
 teaching and expectations for learning. So this may also help you decide
 if this course is for you.
 
--   List of what we will teach and won't teach
+-   We will only interact with GitHub from the website and from a web
+    browser.
+-   We will only write *text*, there will be no code or programming
+    used.
+-   While we will write in a `.md` Markdown file, we will not write or
+    cover Markdown syntax.
+-   We will not go over too many details of Git (a software that GitHub
+    relies on).
