Happy so far, could have used a better introduction to Anaconda and why its needed over just installing the python packages via pip

Bought the advanced web scraping course from the same instructor after going through this course. Really excellent course that walks you through setting up web scraping spiders for your projects. His explanations are always very thorough and easy to understand.

At this stage I have not gone much into the contents. Currently, it has still been easy to follow the steps. However, his accent was bugging me at times. Most of the time it is fine, but sometimes I can’t make out what he was saying, and those are the keywords. The auto generated subtitles aren’t helping too since most of the thing I cannot pick up are not very obvious to auto subs anyways. It will be great if he can edit the subs instead of relying on auto subs. This leads to the next problem which is: he like to put his slide elements at the border of the slide. I keep thinking that my video has gone wrong because the content was being cut off at the top. The contents at the bottom was also always covered by the subs, which forces me to on and off it all time.

There’re few mistakes in transcript. English is not my mother tongue and sometime I couldn’t understand the lecturer and when I check the transcript some of they are not the exact content as lecturer spoke. It’s quite difficult to follow when these happen.
Khalid Gharib –
Clear and precise
Brigitta van Rensburg –
Very explanatory so far, look forward to the rest
Philippe Krepel –
So far this has taught me a lot. I am thankful for the knowledge I have acquired.
Mohammed Barniyah –
Great
Joao Pedro PIRES QUEIROZ –
Great course, well explained, and the 5 starts solid stars are for the fact that the instructor responds very quickly. I made 4 questions, got each answered, and even in one he offered to do a video call. However there are some things that need improvement: The last section containing old material is a bit confusing. And some videos are of websites that do not work anymore, which is a bit frustrating an demotivating. It would be nice to have a newer version of these, and a better struture.

Great Course and Creat Teacher

Content and depth of coverage is good, but lectures can be more concise, and organized better. In the current form, it is easy to follow a single lecture, but very hard to comprehend the big picture. Also it is very hard to look for specific section/example unless you’ve seen entire course once and taken notes every minute.
Saurav Kumar –
I came here to learn scraping and Now I have become adept at that. Brilliantly Designed Course. I would recommend practicing along as you move section by section. This helps me to master the concept Ahmed was teaching.

I also love the exercises that he provides which are great learning assignments! Thank you for this course, I can see the work you put in and you deserve the good ratings
Hamza –
Course is fast paced but very well explained, had to rewatch certain parts a few times to make sure i understood how things work but everything is in the videos. The best part is the instructor is extremely responsive and goes out of his way to help you with any issues you’re having in his Facebook group.

If you want to take your scraping to the next level and really understand the core of scraping this is it. If you could only have 1 course and 1 instructor for web scraping its this one, and its with Ahmed!
