Educative – Cashback, Rebates & Rewards

You'll learn more from random blog posts on line than this "course" site.

I have taken multiple courses in Educative. None of the courses turned out to be good. They don't explain things well. I feel, reading a book is better. In the doubts section, they'll answer only if they know. If you ask anything complicated, they won't answer, you'll have to find it yourself

I feel that this site has very, very superficial tutorials. The guidance on how to build applications is very sketchy, and you end up wasting time online to find solutions because they do not provide enough information. If you need support, it is very difficult to obtain. You can 'ask a question', which opens up a forum. The tool they give you to ask a question is just atrocious, almost impossible to use. I have definitely wasted my money.

Received free access through the GitHub access for students program - and it's not worth 'free'. The number of grammatical errors? Astronomical, and surprising. The content desperately needs review by a professional editor and native English speaker. As well, the content is too 'bro' for me, informal and conversational, when I'm trying to learn a programming language. Finally, the course creators need to take an educational design class before creating new content. Concepts aren't explained before using them, and there's a lot of "Bro, you know this already, right? Of course, you do," when of course, I'm taking this course to learn something new. So, no, I don't know this already, right? The only thing I do enjoy about Educative is that they focus on written documentation, not videos that I'll just read the transcripts for anyway.

Fantastic platform with a wide variety of high-quality courses and is very affordable for the knowledge you gain. I have used it for interview preparation and will be keeping an active subscription to continue learning.
