this is a great course for beginners

I think this course is very good. What I watched so far is understandable an simple. Concepts are presented in a simple, elegant way and are enjoyable to follow. I must say I have fun doing exercises. Jana is a great teacher who understand her subject very well and deep. Thank you very much and I look forward to see more lectures!

wonderful lessons, easy to take and points to all cautionary tips

Great course for begin in the world of JavaScript. Is the kind of course in where you'll learn by doing. Jana is a great person to interact with, she response to the doubts.

I like the course syllabus and overall content .Instructor explains the concept very well and have useful examples throughout the course.

So far, Jana has been teaching in a format that I understand compared to other instructors here on Udemy.

This is a very nice course it does what it says and takes you by the hand as a beginner into learning javascript. Jana is very engaging even funny, she does have a great teaching style breaking everything down into something easier to understand. I also love the fact that she responds to students queries and is updating the course regularly and is putting up new lectures and new project to put the learning into practice. Looking forward to building the project at the end of the course when it becomes available. Not bad at all for a free course (initially I had not realized this nevertheless I am very happy to give a positive review) Many thanks for giving me the opportunity to see it much appreciated.

El curso está muy bien, pero para mi nivel inicial avanza demasiado lento. Me gustan mucho los ejercicios.

The course moves pretty quickly and covers concepts pretty well. The set up of the course is really encouraging a sets up effective temp to move through the videos and learning modules. The code exercises are interesting just challenging enough to keep it engaging.

Too little material about the topics, the instructor is too childish and i hate the music in the begining of each video.
