Amazing teacher. Made all lessons and concepts very palatable. Easy to understand and I really appreciated how the course was organized. No filler content. All usable lessons.

For Lessons 3 – 7 in Section 2, the videos end a few seconds short, about 3 to 4 seconds short. I'm using AI 2026, and there are some differences in toolbar functionalities. No issues yet, just a little bothersome.

it was good and the pace it is going on so far is appropriate and is quite clear to understand. Hope I'll achieve my goal of course at the end

I am learning slowly and easily the things I never knew about. It is really helpful for someone who is a beginner. The Mentor is really nice and knowledgeable. The projects are very helpful to execute what I learned. I am enjoying this course and it is interesting to keep me engaged throughout and complete this course quickly.

Even though people are using ChatGPT for assistant instead of buying course. I prefer learning more knowledge to support. What an excellent course.

I was Expecting more from it, the talking part I found ultimately boring,and the voice annoying. I had to put it 1.5 speed to be able to go through all lessons. I t was refreshment for me more than learning.
By Anonymized User on 12/2/2025
This course was really helpful! I learned how so many of the random features work. I went it with extremely limited knowledge and now I feel very confident with AI. He explains well and doesn't linger too long on certain things. I did watch at 1.5 speed though.
