I learned some cool skills. Overall I was happy with what I learned. There was a bit too much backtracking and re-doing parts in the videos for me and I started to get a little impatient with it in places. It's good to know how to fix errors, but maybe we didn't need as much of it as there was.

David Newton has proven over numerous tutorials that he knows the subject matter and presents it in an engaging fashion and does not skip details and even when he makes mistakes he goes back and explains turning it into yet another useful learning experience. I highly recommend all his courses
