The videos were well narrated, but the green screen insertions became a bit monotonous and hard to look at. Perhaps some natural settings would help.

I wasn't expecting a technical course but a bit more detailed information about GCP offerings wouldn't hurt. Still, good course for non-technical professionals who hava no idea of cloud technologies
