Reviews summary

Too much jargon and terminology

The language used in the lectures is complex and filled with excessive terminology, leaving students struggling to follow. One exception is Pavel Shust, who presented the last module with clarity and enthusiasm.

Lectures burdened by complex language and jargon.

"Меня разочаровало то, каким языком читают лекции и как это делают: много тяжелых формулировок, много терминов ради терминов, мало историй и примеров."
