It was an amazing match for me

Al bij al vond ik deze cursus niet slecht. Het probleem is echter dat je bij sommige zaken te weinig uitleg krijgt, terwijl die volgens mij net heel belangrijk zijn om de grote slotoefening te kunnen maken. Ik heb vaak Claude of ChatGPT moeten inschakelen om meer gedetailleerde uitleg te krijgen over bepaalde formules, codes en begrippen. Aan het einde is er ook een grote oefening die de leerkracht meteen uitlegt. Ik had niet het gevoel dat ik met de opgedane kennis uit de voorgaande lessen in staat was om die oefening zelfstandig te maken. Ik begrijp nog steeds niet waarom sommige stukken code op bepaalde plaatsen staan — wat eigenlijk erg jammer is. Misschien zou het beter zijn om eerst verschillende korte oefeningen te geven vóór de grote oefening wordt aangeboden. Ook was er geen cursusmateriaal, zoals een syllabus, beschikbaar. Ik ben daardoor wat op mijn honger blijven zitten. Mijn oplossing is om de cursus volledig opnieuw te doorlopen, in de hoop dat ik meer inzicht krijg dan nu, of eventueel een andere cursus te volgen.

It is an amazing course. very easy to understand and I learnt a lot! But I do think if he talked a little slower it would be better

I'm learning alot more than ever. At first, when i was learning coding. I was a bit confused but now with visuals and examples, i have a better understanding.
