I've done JS courses before and went through this to refresh my memory. It was very clear and he didn't make any mistakes (really) during the recordings. Only minor niggle was some of the console logs were a little small, but I listened to it @ 2x on an iPad and then watched it on my laptop on a bigger screen, just manually skipping through. That worked well for me.
There were a number of mistakes that the instructor made throughout this course that should have been edited for the final cuts, for example, stumbling over words, incorrect references to function/method names, inaccurate explanation of PEMDAS, etc. The instructor's phone could also be heard vibrating throughout the video series, which was quite distracting.
What is an object? What is the difference between an object in JavaScript and an instance of a class in C++. C# or Java? What is prototypal inheritance? How to do the transformations among JSON, JSONP, and object literals? What is an execution stack? what is a scope chain? What is a closure? What is an event queue? What is a callback? What is IIFE? what is a function constructor? how to use spread? What does 'this' point to? .......So.... you name this course "comprehensive"?
