Ruben highlights his competence in how he held the course. I really was impressed.
Ruben is great at teaching the content, and fielding questions. He is entertaining and made the day go by quickly.
Mr MacKay was an excellent instructor. His credibility and expertise were obvious, but he taught at a level that ensured I was understanding the course objectives
Excellent course, very beginner friendly
Mr. Myles Brown is an excellent instructor. He presented the entire course in a clear concise manner using lab examples, offering question and answer sessions and staying after the class ended to make himself available to answer any further questions. I feel very fortunate to have had this format to complete the AWS course and would highly recommend it to anyone wishing to take an AWS course. Thank you.
