سعرها أقل بكثير من قيمتها الحقيقية. أتمنى الاستمرار بنفس المستوى في الدورات القادمة.

الشرح بسيط وبلغة مفهومة، والأمثلة كلها من بيئتنا الخليجية مو مترجمة. هذي النقطة وحدها تستاهل السعر.

خمس نجوم عن جدارة. أسلوب عرض هادئ ومنظم، والأمثلة واقعية مو مثالية.

الوحدة الثانية لحالها تستاهل سعر الدورة كامل. معلومات ما لقيتها في أي مصدر عربي ثاني.

المادة العلمية قوية والعرض مريح. بس بعض المصطلحات الإنجليزية ما تُرجمت واحتجت أبحث عنها.

معلومات قيّمة وترتيب منطقي. الشي الوحيد إن بعض الأمثلة تحتاج تفصيل أكثر لمن هو جديد تماماً.
