The material is very well-organized, presented in a sequential manner from basic to advanced levels, allowing students to understand in detail. It focuses on key points of the subject, with real-world case studies and practical exercises that deepen comprehensive understanding.

This course was really fun, but I will say write down the commands in a notebook to actually remember what commands to use for each "task". Other than writing notes just practice, I will be returning to this course to regain my memory on SQL & Linux. (it's a bit to remember)

Started to get a lot more challenging and had a lot more practical exercises which I felt was beneficial to my learning experience. The theory in previous courses started to become very tedious so this was a breathe of fresh air. Definitely been my favourite course so far!

Tough but rewarding! Definitely a lot of technical content, but as long as you take your time and not be afraid to play around with examples, you should be fine. Make sure to pay close attention to proper syntax, spellings, and the ordering of the commands you'll learn.

this was an amazing journey learning Linux and command line world. I already had an exposure to Linux and SQL but after this course I feel confident in using commands. I have installed Windows subsystem for Linux in my Windows machine and practicing the commands.

The course was very exciting. I gained insight into Linux, and had hand-on experience using CLI and SQL to protect systems and fetch data. As always, the course was technical but they succeeded in making it simple for easy learning. I am glad I took the course.

Excellent information. I would add any one of the web programming languages such as JavaScript application or java application and illustrate how application vulnerabilities impact overall security posture and what can we do to deal with them. Thank you.

I was already a Linux user, so half this module was a simple review that I breezed through. But it would have actually been a pretty good 'Basics' tutorial to have had access to back when I first started. The SQL stuff was all new to me and I loved it.

The course has been designed for all learning styles. They guide you through the process from the theory to the practice until you get fundamental skills and the knowledge to retrieve information on your own when performing an entry-level job. Great!

It is a TON of information but it's totally worth it. in my opinion SQL was w=easier to learn than Linux but its still lots of information. Take notes because the videos will always have slightly different information than the reading portions.

Prior to beta testing this course, I had no knowledge of SQL. However, I can proudly say that I have gained some knowledge. The numerous labs coupled with the clarity of the course contents will help learners assimilate the course more readily.

I truly enjoyed learning through the extensive hands-on lab activities in this course. The practical, real-world examples made it easier to grasp key concepts and apply them effectively. Expecting the same in upcoming courses in the program.

Loved it!! Though some questions were a bit sketchy and I had to alter more than just the X and Y values but all and all, awesome learning experience esp with someone with ADHD. Though most videos were a bit lifeless, still stuck through!

Great course, great modules. Kudos to the instructor, she delivered. Both Linux and SQL lab sessions were interesting and engaging. I gained so much knowledge from this course, it was pretty much hands-on. Thank you Google x Coursera!!!

Best Linux course I've taken - Google makes it very easy to learn with the labs they provide. Linux is one of the most important tools in cybersecurity and it was hard to learn and understand in other courses. Good job Google!

I just wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation for the "Tools of the Trade: Linux and SQL" course. The structure, clarity, and hands-on approach made it an incredibly engaging and easy-to-follow learning experience.

This was a great course and I learned A TON while completing it. However, I feel that putting Linux and SQL together in one course is too much for beginners. This could and should be divided so that each have their own course.

Coming in to this course, I was intimidated as I knew literally nothing on the subject matter. But once I got going, I quickly became familiar with Linux and SQL and developed the confidence to continue studying the material.

This is one of the best course, I had the opportunity to get the hands-on experience for both Linux command line ( this made me really excited for the cybersecurity world) and SQL ( which is very hard to understand at first)

This was a fantastic course, as I learned skills which will be required in the real world. The teacher was professional and to-the-point. She was extremely thorough and I loved every moment of this course. Thank you, ma'am.

This has by far been my hardest and most practical course. I cried, retook the exams, went back and retook the whole course to make sure i understand what am doing but guys i made it, just don't give up, you put in the work

"Tools of the Trade: Linux and SQL" course provided comprehensive and practical knowledge. Excellent instruction and hands-on exercises. Valuable for anyone seeking proficiency in Linux and SQL for professional development.

Outstanding course! This course has great explanations and reading material with even better hand on labs to practice your skills and activities with example cases that help you think along the lines of a security analyst.

I am exposed to more resources in the areas of LINUX and SQL than I ever had before, It is well simplified to the best of my understanding and I recommend it to anyone interested in becoming a cybersecurity professional.

I was really able to lean new skills and techniques in this course. I enjoyed it and I felt that it was so interesting on the way presented. Did not get bored at all and was so excited to learn in every stage I finish!
