The Skill of asking the right questions is usually very underrated and many people just overlook it. That's why I'm appreciative of google for teaching this core skill and making it super interesting.

Everything was perfect but some questions on the practice and graded quizzes were tricky. The answers conflicted from the point of view side so it might need a better explanation for the right answer.

It was great overall, but sometimes it felt very basic, however I believe we must keep patience to get to the hard skills part.

I think the main thing should be to catch the concept of the questions and not the name of it. Need more quizzes with examples.
