I am very thankful to have met helpful people (Alfred and Jan) for this course, as my laptop was giving me multiple problems for the first day (cannot connect to wifi, charging wire was not working, later also found out I had issues installing python packages which needed fixing at home). The spare laptop allowed me to pay attention to lessons in class for the first day without much worries. Jan is a very good trainer. Jan was very attentive to students in the class and was always patient with questions. I really appreciate that. Have liked the Facebook page

I recommend to introduce every section taught by an explanation of "why we are going to teach you that". That will help understand the use and the importance of the topic, in particularly for people less familiar with development's area. (Posted on 1/9/2017)1.
