Computación Básica, desde cero (Udemy.com)

This is a Spanish-language starter course for people with zero computer experience. It runs 6.9 hours across 30 lectures and six sections: getting to know the machine, folders and files, the internet and browsers, search engines, and email. The pitch also reaches parents who want to keep an eye on what their kids do online. Pepe Sosa teaches it under Black Road Code, a company that cites 22 years in IT. The syllabus shows no Office or typing practice, so it is about understanding the basics, not producing documents.

Reviewers mostly like the explanations. Several call them clear, one praises the instructor's steady, fluent voice, and a few first-time users say they now know things they did not before. The 4.3 average from 1,684 ratings holds up: 764 are five stars and 587 are four. The complaints are specific, though. One student wants more exercises, since practice beats talking, another finds the delivery monotone, and a third says the stories run long. One reviewer notes the last lecture promises a final internet lesson that never appears. Another suspects parts were re-uploaded from older material.

The material was last updated in August 2017, so anything about specific software, browsers or online shopping safety may feel dated, though the basics of files and email have not moved much. With 11,555 students it is a well-used pick. It is a gentle, low-pressure start, not a skills workout. For someone who needs to stop being afraid of the machine, it fits. Anyone who learns by doing should pair it with plenty of practice on their own computer.
