The concepts are mostly explained superficially, and most of the things are not explained.

Basic SQL topics are covered for beginners, advanced topics are interesting. But almost all of the videos are blurry...

Video quality is poor.
Voice and demonstration of by Mr Biz could be better.

Exceeded expectations on the topics that were covered. The resource downloads were a great help with following the course. Especially learning SQL, it can be a challenge trying to watch and take notes. I really appreciate the time and effort in the prep work. I did however see some grammar errors but in comparison to other training modules, this is by far the best in organization, content and information.

1. Poor quality audio; 2. Not for beginners, 3.Not thorough when explaining just a quick review; 4.When talking it looks like a text to speech machine reading a script

I was excited to take this course but unfortunately, I'm unhappy with the course. The videos are not in details and they are shortly explained.
