It is interactive. The videos are a great way to learn. The demos are amazing to follow; it makes the learning so easy. The length of each section is adequate. This course has really changed my perception about Linux, I am in love with it now.

It answered a lot of questions I had about Linux syntax. I took this to improve my abilities to edit technical documents, so I could identify typos better.

The thoroughness and breadth of information covered in this course is fantastic. It is well organized and detailed. It is not half-hearted, gives a good taste of Linux features and possibilities, and has definitely set me up to learn and explore more if I wish to. I also fell confident adding Linux familiarity to my resume.

Unlike other beginner level courses, it gets very real. There was also stuff and commands which I didn't know, even though I'm working with Linux, which was a nice surprise to me!

Information was precise and straight to the point. I'm a newbie using Linux systems, and I've learned a few things on my own, but this course took it to a whole new level, thank you!

I like how it explains everything in general, so that we can choose a better path for ourselves later in order to learn in depth. The try-it on your own was the best part of the course.

The best Linux introduction course I have done.

Even though I've been a Linux user for many years, I still enjoyed this course because it's a great overview. Also, obviously not everyone does everything the same way. I'm considering myself as an experienced Linux user, but still I learned a few things or a few tricks here and there, (re)discovering commands I don't or rarely use, but that can still be useful.

I'm a Linux user with a lot of experience, but this course showed me a lot of new commands, very useful.
