I liked the easy communication between trainer and us, care given to our problems, insights and additional knowledge provided in anwers to our questions. I liked the pace, it didn't feel rushed at any point, even with technical problems. Each subject was taken care of properly.

The pacing of the lecture. Bartek asked if a certain topic is not known and if it was necessary to dive into specific parts he talked about it in detail. if the topic was familiar to all attending the lecture then he would briefly describe the topic so it's for sure understandable to everyone
