Excellent! A pleasure to learn from Professor Hutchison. Looking forward to the next class.
I really liked this course it was very informative! There is so much dodgy information on the web on this topic and it is really nice to learn from a reliable source.
Will clear out many doubts and myths about the industry. Very easy to read. Quizes and assignments really connected to the material.
