Found this course to be quite beneficial. The way topics were introduced was effective. Just a minor point, some examples felt a bit dated.
So glad I took this course. The examples were relevant and helped break down difficult concepts. Felt like I made real progress.
It's a solid course. The structure is logical and most of the examples were helpful. Could use a few more real-world scenarios though.
