If you would like a refresher and to go back to the basics, then please feel free to join.

How it's done:

Being slammed with content and instruction is difficult and overwhelming. This course focuses on a form of slow progression education. What this means is:

1. A new topic will be introduced
2. Detailed information will be provided to get a grasp of what the topic is about
3. Useful resources will be accompanied along-side detailed lectures discussing the topic
4. Assignments will be provided to assist in confirming that you understand the new topic
5. Repeat

With 14 overall sections laid out in this course, it should be anticipated that for a new individual to programming the course could take quite a bit of time to complete. However, there is no requirement to speed through the content and taking your time to fully comprehend each topic will only benefit you further on in the course. If at any point you have any issues, you can always reach out to me for guidance.
