Very clear and detailed with encouragement and motivation from presenting the various paths that have brought the different teachers to IT. Some parts were a bit slow for more experienced students like myself, but I love that it is accessible to all levels. Looking forward to the next course.

I have several years of IT experience and was taking this course as a refresher

since I have been working in Automotive research for the last several years.

I found this course loaded with information and was very entertaining even

being familiar with a majority of the topics.

Great Job Google!

Khóa học giúp tôi hiểu về những kiến thức nền tảng, cơ bản về cấu trúc của một máy tính, cũng như cách mà máy tính vận hành. Thật ngạc nhiên về cách mà máy tính và người dùng có thể giao tiếp với nhau, không ngờ nó phải trải qua nhiều công đoạn và nhiều ngôn ngữ khác nhau như vậy, rất thú vị.

It was an amazing course and the knowledge shared was most valuable. Each and every person from Google had a specific cool IT vibe in their ways of teaching and their expression of passion towards technology. I most certainly can feel it and would be happy to learn more from each one of them.

One of the things that I appreciated most is that I was able to have life interrupt my studies yet I was able to come right back to where I was and pick back up.

I appreciate those who are presenting the information as I found them easy to relate to.

I think Gayle and Marty deserve Webby's. :)

This is my first time taking a course from Google. Of the several courses I have attended, in terms of learning materials, Google's course provides material that is relevant to what happens in the field and not only focuses on improving knowledge but also improving soft skills as IT Support.

Super engaging! Well paced and spaced out nicely. I feel that there is room to challenge the student a little bit more. I definitely enjoy the step by step process in small consumption rather than long winded explanation. The change in presenters keeps the information more engaging as well!!

The course is good at presenting the subject matter without overwhelming the student. I found the sections on preparing a resume and handling an interview well done and gave me a view of understanding skills I have developed in other employment and how they can be carried over to an IT role.

I loved this course. The content was very interesting and presented in a way that made it easy to take up and feel less bored. I especially liked how it was broken down into small 5 or 10 minute videos which together made up such important technical content that was could be easily digested.
