poor audio quality destroys even decent/ good content. I think the same is happening with this course too. And the speaker is yawning a lot, that's not good for the viewer and BIG NO NO professionally

Less than even free quality. He should have considered his audience, cleaned up his videos, and edited the yawns and cursing before placing material on Udemy as a "course." The quality is supposed to be like, you know...that of a course! Not an unedited, repurposed YouTube video. Nothing against repurposing, but it's lazy and reflects poorly on your reputation to slap it on Udemy with no thought to who visits Udemy and why. With that, it reaked of lacking experience and professionalism. Had he even looked at other Udemy courses to understand what is expected on this platform? His second video is labeled "b," meaning he didn't even give a second look-through before posting it on here. It would make sense if the lecture titles were just letters, "A, B, C," etc., except the other videos actually have titles. If the "instructor" takes heade to my constructive criticism and gains some more experience on the subject he's trying to teach, I'd give him a second chance. At this stage, however, he's got some learning to do.
Most of us don't appreciated our time being wasted, even if it's free. In fact, I usually pay for courses just reduce the risk of getting my time wasted. However, there have been some really good freebies on here from those who have considered who they serve and want to provide quality content during the COVID-19 economic crisis. Placing this "course" on Udemy seems to show a fine example of what it looks like when someone does something with themselves in mind instead of who they're trying to serve. A serving mindset is content creation 101, which is another reason it shows this person is green. It's difficult to "learn" from someone when you're further along than them on the very basics.
I stopped watching during the second video. I don't care about your waking up usually at 8 am but that day at 9 am. I don't care to listen to you yawn and repeatedly say you haven't had your coffee yet. All that tells me is you showed up unprepared and are thinking about what's up with you rather than how you're going to benefit those who view your content!
Thanks for the content! A good primer to get started. Just a note: It seems the audio is mono (only from one side) though.
