Hard to say, really.
You didn't mention what kind of course you're taking and wether or not you have (and if so how much) experience you have with coding in a scripting language.
In general, you could say that javascript is failry easy to learn if you understand some basic logic principles of programming and have a reasonable grasp of the structure of HTML documents.
Having said that, scripting and programming are not for everyone. I've seen students in an entry-level javascript class in desperation because they couldn't understand the 'flow' of a script/code. This prevents one from being able to formulate their programming logic into the proper syntax: if A happens, variable B should get this value and function C should be called next. Or something of the likes.
I'm not trying to discourage you, i'm merely pointing out that it's difficult for anyone to say wether or not you'll be able to understand the logic behind any language. If you do, then the proper syntax will probably be relatively easy.
If you want to get some more info, just try out some javascript tutorials that are floating around the internet by the millions. All you need is a browser and a text editor (like notepad). Just do a google search on 'javascript tutorials' and get crackin'. This will certainly give you a good understanding of the language and at the very least a little head start in the course.
Good luck!
