Set aside the fact that your tutor is Spanish and has an accent which sometimes can be difficult to understand everything is explained very well in detail. I am enjoying this course very much. I now feel much more at home at the command line but it is very basic. There is some good free information on many Linux forums. Try https://unix.stackexchange.com or try https://www.linux.com/

What was here was good but I get the impression it is not finished. He almost stopped in the middle of a sentence. Author is quite good I just hope he continues to add content.

Simple and easy to understand. I have been using linux for a while professionally and I am getting more serious about it. This was a good course to brush up on somethings and I learned a couple of things I didn't know before. 4 Stars as there are no labs.

This is a good introduction course on Linux Operating System. More particularly on Ubuntu Linux. It would been great if the instructor had include his slides as resources for the course.
