For a free course, the lectures have great examples and slides have lots of informing pictures and video material. The lecturer is energetic and uses humor to support the content.

I like her style of teaching, lessons and the fact that she takes the effort to put together those useful documents and break down each term in the industry. The case studies were a good addition.
