Content was pretty good. Audio levels could've been better. Almost always lower than they should have been and it was pretty inconsistent between videos.

Much of the presentation so far is saying the same words and concepts over and over again.
By Todd Steiger on 8/8/2023
Difficult to follow for a couple reasons: I'm not used to instructors accent, would have to listen to several times to aclimate. The view to code demos are very small, can't see what instructor is doing in some cases.
By Jennifer Dooloukas on 7/14/2023
The subject matter was covered appropriately, but it would have been nicer if the test application being used in the video was designed for a high resolution display. It was very small, and the text was blurry, making it somewhat difficult to see/read and follow what the instructor was doing.

Great information for a complete beginner & has useful tips on how to mitigate each issue.
