    Stephen was an awesome instructor (even with the course being online). He appropriately paces the material and doesn't make you feel small for asking seemingly simple questions. I would definitely take this class again!
  • Python for Data Science Immersive

    Very instructive course. Definitely worthwhile if you are trying to learn Python. The teacher was engaging and was able to cater to different levels of expertise among the attendees.

    I started learning python on an online platform almost a year ago and felt that I had completely players like plateaued. I loved the Python immersive course and was able to learn much more in a week than I had on my own over the span of around 8 months. I now I feel fully confident in my ability to continue my python learning independently and I know where to turn when I'm ready to enroll in my next programming course.

    I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking to gain some knowledge with Python. Thalo(course instructor) is the man! He explains things really well and shows great examples throughout his explanation. Again I highly recommend it.
  • Remote JavaScript Programming 101

    Anonymous review on 2/7/2020
    If you are looking for a JS course, then this is not the course for you. We spent 3/4 of the time talking and working on HTML and CSS. If you never worked with HTML, CSS or JS, then you will enjoy it and find it really useful. I felt and expressed that the tittle and description of the course is off. When I asked for more JS cases, examples and uses, I've been told to check the immersive course.

    Stephen was a great instructor and was very flexible with the class on when to slow down and expand on a topic and when to dive right in.

    This class had a great pace, good detail, and gave very practical and usable knowledge and skill. The instructor,Tim was attentive to all in the class and provided the curriculum to the class at the right pace. I plan to take the next level of this course and the machine learning class too. Ed F

    I loved the class a lot because of the fact that it was a week and able to compress all that information into it. I also liked the 10AM start, not too early. The 5pm end was a little late for my particular week that week, since I had things to do for about 3 days of the week and had to leave early. However, any week-long class will present that problem with trying to fit errands before or after the class. The teacher was very fast and he could type as fast as he could talk. I tried to keep up and coded along with him as he presented, which really helped with the hands on and understanding being able to actually see it run in front of me. This type of hands on also keeps me engaged versus just sitting there watching someone lecture. Sometimes I couldn't quite keep up, but all is good, I still got the main points and lots of information in a short time. The exercises were also good practice, but with me, it takes time and experience to be able to rattle off code with intuitive understanding, so I'm not worried about that yet, since with practice, I know it becomes second nature. Overall, I like the way Practical Programming teaches, and I'm thinking of taking more classes from there.

    Overall very happy wit the course. The third class became very confusing and hard to keep up. The instructor tried to touch all the materials that perhaps was too much for one class.
