The teacher teaches well, and tries to explain while going. Having said that, this training is NOT for the absolute beginner, due to the complexities of Android and Kotlin programming paradigm. I learned a lot, but also had to look up a couple of things to actually get it. Thank you very much for this effort.

Simple app to understand and follow. Lecturer would implement one way then back track to implement in a better way. This was good for explaining the inner components but was slightly confusing and could have saved time by doing it "right" originally. Overall a great introduction course to using kotlin for Android applications.

The explanantion in this course is very nice and very much helpfull but there some topics is missed in this tutorial 1. Life cycle of application 2. Life cycle of activity and Item 3. There is not much designing concepts like how we scroll more content, web views etc... 4. Should have explained How to call API 5. Should have include how to use local database 6. I can not see much information about Kotlin here like how to use conditional operators, using call backs, protocols etc.., If possible can please update this course with updated topics. Thank you.

Good for beginners but the instructor could've explain the Recyclerview better. I'm in section 4 and I liked the course so far. The are few changes in the newer version of Android Studio but you can figure it out by yourself with a little help from the internet.
