It's one thing to know something, it's another thing to know how to pass it to another person. Also, it is better to disable copilot if your goal is to teach whoever buys your course.

This course offers a solid foundation for anyone looking to build a learning management system using raw PHP and MySQL with PDO. The instructor explains concepts clearly and takes a hands-on approach, which makes it easier to understand how everything works together. The real-world project is well-structured and provides valuable experience in database integration, authentication, and system design. Highly recommended for beginners and intermediate learners who want to improve their PHP skills without relying on frameworks.
