Good presentation of themes. But he is sometimes going too fast which compounds the clarity due to his accent.

Content was good for beginner point-of-view. Tutor needs to explain more of the terms present in the tools in a general way rather than explaining from the tool itself
By Abubakar Hamman Zubairu on 10/12/2023
The instructor has a well planned mode of delivering the materials
