Bought an AWS SAA Solutions Architect Associate course on Udemy
Site's top seller—over a million sold
But
it's taught by a French person
His English puts me to sleep
Teaching ability isn't great
Looked it up—French like Chinese is syllable-timed
while English is stress-timed
Meaning the former keeps each word's beat length similar
sounding flat
unlike native English with natural rhythm
letting listeners' brains catch key info fast
cutting decode cost
Redeemed with a Xianyu coupon
69 RMB
Tried a few VPC videos
Really not as good as some YouTube creators (e.g. Travis Media)
Beyond delivery
Teaching methods have issues
Dry PPT form
Lots of reading slides
Console UI is still 2022 AWS
I think great teachers capture attention
know what to emphasize
That's detail methodology
but overall communication and speaking skill is key
If the overall vibe is comfortable
people immerse and can't stop learning
YouTube creators are selected by algorithm and audience together
Quality differs from sales-driven platforms
Selling hot doesn't mean content is truly good
