After watching your free videos here on youtube I started learning from Udemy and OMG...It's so good

Thank you for the clear and pragmatic explanations of this material! As a beginner programmer it is helpful to see actual applications of concepts sequentially instead of front-loading with too much theory.

Thanks to The Net Ninja I managed to learn html, css, node js, mongo, and react. The videos are great because they give you a basic understanding of the technology you are learning and then show how to build something using it.
