Jamie was really great, he was enthusiastic and passionate during all the course and it was really easy to understand him. For an introduction to a language I think the course is really good and easy to follow.

By Conway Li

The course was well-designed for students with a programming background, even a Java programming background. I found the course to be a great refresher on Java programming syntax and concepts. It also provided very good explanations and examples.
The instructor is very easy to listen too, which is good considering the large number of video lectures. The pacing of the lectures was just right for me. I was able to absorb most of the material the first time.

By Thaddeus Collier

This course is awesome. Everything is well explained, drawn out, and then shown with code. Best part is you get to do it all on your own machine also. Make more courses Learn by the Byte!!

By Weiyi Lee

This course is great on introducing java to programmers that already know OOP such as C++ or C#. In other words, it is clear on explaining the syntax of java and theories of how things work, but if you are not familiar with, lets say exceptions, polymorphism, stream io, then don't expect to learn it from this course, cause the practices aren't enough.

By Adam Whipple

I absolutely loved this course. Jamie is by far one of the best online teachers out there. The course was high quality and easy to follow.

By Maciej Pradzynski

If you are looking for the course to help you get started with programming in Java, I truly believe you can't get anything better than this.
* Jamie is a dedicated and energetic teacher. You won't get bored even for a single second.
* the content of lectures is explained step by step and there is no way to get lost!
* I also appreciate many insightful comments on how Java works "behind the scenes"

By Andrei Istudor

Very good for beginners in Java learning.
Also very good for those have some knowledge about Java and want to add some new stuff from this course (my situation).
Very good professor and very experimented.
Very good code examples materials
I recommend to take this course.

By Brian Jester

Love it, easy to watch, comprehend and exercises are meaningful and Jamie Romero is excellent & entertaining. I'd recommend listening at 1.5x or 2x speed if you are already somewhat familiar with the concepts, sound quality & voice tone is still excellent.

By Brendan Ahern

Well Delivered by the Instructor. Very informative and makes Java easy to understand. Could have maybe used some larger scale projects but it is an intro after all. Also GUI's would have been nice to look at perhaps. Overall though, great!! Definitely recommend.

By David Mueller

Hi I recommend this course for everyone, who is interested in Java. From the beginnig to advanced. But if you want to know something about graphics interfaces like AWT or SWING, take a different course. But I am satisfied with the course.

By Anthony Chidi Njoku

The instructor has perfected the art of teaching. This is the first course that i started and followed all the way to the end. If you are a self learning aspiring programmer like me, i 100 percent suggest you take this course. It will be well worth the effort. Thank you Jamie Romero with learning by the byte..

By Dean Ross

The content and instruction of the course was great. The only negative was when the instructor displayed content from the hard copy material it was blurry. You could read it but you had to focus.
Overall it was a great course.
