Course - Master Drupal 9 Site Building / Architecture
That the course was tailored to my needs based on the pre-course questionnaire. Parts I felt stronger on were given less time so that we could focus on my less knowledgeable topics, which improved the pacing of the course. Lukasz was very good at explaining a given topic based on my experience level, and had a lot of relevant examples to match that level.
