Fundamentals will always be fundamentals - not really anything new, but depends very much of the teacher and his experience (showing nugget bites to take with you during the learning process

Perfect match for what i was looking for. However, I was hoping to be able to download the content as promised from the beginning but couldn't find any download link. But got the summary and hint at the end of the course.

Audio has lots of background noise. Presenter's voice often trails off or he speaks too fast. The dialogue is slightly different from my country so is somewhat challenging to follow without stopping to rewind to catch words. In response to the presenter's response of my review: You asked for a review, so I truthfully spoke about what I was experiencing at that time. I hadn't even completed enough of the course to speak on the value I was getting from it, which as I continued listening and despite the audio issues, seemed to be helpful, interesting, and resourceful. If at all possible and only as a suggestion, maybe place your request for reviews at the very end of the course. It's hard to read inflection but somehow your response reads somewhat condescending. All in all, I think this is a worthwhile course.
