Jason is such a wonderful teacher and personality. It's really a pleasure to learn from him.
The information was very direct and was a great introduction to the technologies we will be using. Video lengths were perfect for introduction to the material.
The lessons presented the material in real world scenarios and plain language that really made sense to me.
I hope you have as much fun taking this course as I had making it for you. Onward and upward!
