If you are talking about an online language class as in "I'm learning Yiddish" then I don't understand why it would confuse that that someone who isn't a coder or writer (and they're a big if) who doesn't know what the heck markdown is and hence wouldn't want to deal with it since they're used to MS Word or other word processor app. that's probably like 95% of the population at least.
