To much on provider AWS and the sound volume varies per module.

A lot of 1 or 2 minute videos where I was not 100% what the point was after the video except to keep moving on. I had high hopes for the course but it just was not for me.

Lots of repetition in each section. Course length could be half. Audio and video quality is poor (seems like not to much effort was put in it). The example questions contain (small) errors too.
