For a foundation course, this one was easy to understand, it explained all basic concepts in a fluid way and built up the base for the upcoming courses. I'm eager to move on to the other courses now.

The course is well paced and they get you comfortable with the topics even though we do not have any sort of prior exposure in this field. It is very good for the beginners who are new to this field

I'm really interested in learning with Google. This is the first lesson I've ever done with this particular school though. Let's see, from first impression, I admit the website looks rough and I'm nervous to navigate through. Its layouts are scattered and I can't get a good focus. I had to watch the videos over again and again before I could remember all of them. For someone trying to learn, this may be a setback. You should always plan your lessons out so that they are even, sequential, and easy to learn, I plan to keep learning with this program so I hope the other lessons will improve. I also hope the material is worth learning, not under training in other words or less than an employee is looking for. Now let's see how my ratings change as I continue along with my lessons.
