Instructor Details

Fatah Gabrial

Hello! I'm Fatah Gabrial, an enthusiastic web development instructor passionate about teaching practical skills in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, PHP and MySQL. With decades of experience in web design and development, I've built thousands of projects, including custom PHP scripts and WordPress themes used by various companies.

My journey into teaching began during the Covid-19 pandemic when traditional training institutes closed their doors. I transitioned to online platforms like many others, but I sought a more efficient way to share my knowledge. That's when I discovered Udemy, and I was inspired to create courses that could empower learners by teaching once and reaching many.

As a self-taught web designer and developer, I believe in a hands-on approach to learning. My teaching philosophy follows the 80/20 rule, where 80% of my courses focus on practical applications, while only 20% covers theory. This method ensures that my students gain the essential skills needed to excel in the ever-evolving world of web development.

This course refers to WordPress.org. It is exactly what I expected: A fast course, explaining how WordPress works, with a log of examples and fast paced. I certainly now have a grasp and on how WP works and this course really helped me!

This course is good for a beginner who doesn't have prior experience. Basic knowledge about what is WordPress, how to install and customize a theme, and so on.

By Deepanshu Munjal on 9/1/2020

The Course is Basic, Very well explained. However, I kind of got lost when learning about Post, Pages and menu. A live demo on one of the themes would have been fantastic too. It was worth it Overall. Thanks :)
