Mr. Fernandez "Freddy" has done a fantastic job teaching this course. Overall, the course was well-structured, informative, and engaging. It provided a solid foundation in hardware, software, and networking, with a good balance of theory and hands-on practice. The instructor was knowledgeable and made complex topics easier to understand. The platform was user-friendly, but incorporating more real-world simulations and interactive discussions could further enhance the learning experience. I feel more confident in my IT skills and would recommend this course to others looking to build a strong technical foundation.
