This was a very fun course! I really enjoyed the style and pace of the information given. A lot of technical information was given while the course made it easy to take in and comprehend the material!

This course was more intensive than the first one, but felt a little more hands-on. I am excited to see how the next course goes. I do feel I learned quite a bit in this course and it was challenging.

Very basic intro, could use more network simulations to get one's hands dirty(ish) implementing a working network

very good but still some parts could be more visual as it is also given to people with no background of the topic.

Great fundamentals, I think it lacks a bit of hands on, but in terms of basic theory it covers mostly everything.

Mostly vocabulary it seems for the test. Still had a lot of good information in it that can be used in the field.

Was just a bit tougher for me and felt it shouldn't have been considered Entry Level stuff but to each their own

Siento que es muy teórico este curso. Creo que le falta un poco de práctica para que sea un poco más entendible.

Really enjoyed the course and explaining the concepts was good but could use more visuals throughout the videos.

A bit too densely packed without enough hands-on practice to help a lot of the concepts get driven home better.

Daunting and at times difficult, especially for a newbie to tech, but also, incredibly fascinating. I LOVED IT!

Covers a good variety of topics, but may be challenging for a beginner, even after completing the first course.

All the theory and technical information is well explained. But I think the course needs to be more practical.

So much more technical than the first course, could probably use many more hands-on quizzes or practice tools.

Some of the quizes are in Russian and they don't seem to be wanting to fix it. Takes some time to translate.
