My experience has been great so far!

Thanks So far, so good.

In fact, almost all of the content I've completed so far (almost to section 5), reading an actual textbook would have been more informative and helpful; much of what Jon has taught has failed to take advantage of the video format.

tutor is a little bit monotonic It is okay easy explain and very complete So far the instructors are very informative, detailed, and well knowledgeable about the course.

the content is good and understandable Instructors seems very comfortable in the lecturer, a show of mastery of the subject I know most basics but this is very helpful So far instructions very clear I left this rating because the setup was straight forward and easy looking to expand my knowledge in SQL and this is a good fit for me Good one!

step by step

excellent explication The only issue, the version of the video is 5.x and at the moment the version is 8.x, a few changes are present Good.. Love the step by step process And the teaching method is easy to follow.

It's very easy to keep up with the step by step instructions provided by the instructor.

I personally hate installations because they can be very ambiguous and take forever, but the instructor's step by step guide made it as smooth as it could be.

I really like how it's step by step.

The course is brilliant I am excited about the fact that I did not encounter any difficulties regarding the installation of the MySQL database I'm really enjoying this course, ithink it's really usefull It is clear and precise breaks down everything but isn't too long It went through step by step and explain why every time something was done.

Good visual representation on how to Install MySQL Workbench Clear structured good paced step by step instructions.

for beginners

perfect course for beginners from this course will raise you from zero to professional, all that happens only when you watch and do a hands-on lab on each and every exercise.

Content teaches in-depth knowledge This course is excellent specially for beginners, all topics explained comprehensively.

especially for beginners.

But for beginners the more visual, the better.

For beginners like me, it is a bit difficult to manage his speed.

good Excellent Great for beginners, I thinks it is a great starting place!

The course was geared for beginners but I feel that some database development and developer pieces should be at the end once you have gone through the basics.

Enjoyed the training broken into small lectures Each section is broken down into plain english for beginners, which is nice!

Speaks at a pace that is good for beginners!

The second major issue I have is that the course is described as being for beginners.

good Instructor was very thorough and easy to follow along.

Simple, clear, and easy to follow :D very easy steps to follow along,the instructor knows the concepts very well and explains tasks in a detailed manner 我正在读这个哈哈。你很聪明 Good course amazing I am not computer literate.

While this may work fine if you simply follow along with everything he's saying/writing, it does nothing to actually teach the students the core concepts so they can be adapted to their own real-world scenarios.
