Testimonials (5)
I liked the interactive examples we worked on, the trainer was extremely knowledgeable in almost every subject we had questions about, and gave excellent advise for our real-world use-cases relating to some of the material in the training.

Course - Rust Advanced
The trainer's knowledge is very extensive, his commitment to conversation and transfer of knowledge is enormous. Good contact with participants. Very well prepared materials, many slides, descriptions of exercises, great preparation for the training was visible. Despite my comments, I still rate the training very well. My comments are only an addition to the training, which was of a very good standard. In my opinion, with participants from area C# and the corrections introduced, the training may be at an ideal level ;-)

Pushing changes on an ongoing basis, when on the 3rd day I started to get more lost than before and it was harder to spot the error quickly, I was quickly able to check out the latest changes and stay up to date with the material
