One of the things I recommend to everyone who creates courses is to make it incredibly easy for students to provide feedback.

I blatantly copied this idea (even design) from one of the best programming courses out there (no ads, just take my word for it).

In each lesson, right at the top (in the header) and at the bottom, I have a button that opens a modal where you can send me your feedback. I’ll automatically receive the URL of the page you were on and your email (since you're logged in).

I considered adding a thumbs-up/down system or a star rating, but honestly, if I get a 3 out of 5, I won’t know what’s wrong with the lesson. Plus, connecting lessons to ratings requires extra work. It's fine if you're deeply into coding, but why waste time when content is what really matters here?

If someone gives me a 3 out of 5 but doesn't explain why, what does that number even mean to me? Nothing. What truly matters is what the student tells me—what I should fix.

✅ One text area

✅ One submit button

✅ Easy to find on every page

No need to copy-paste email —just write what's wrong, and I'll receive it directly in my inbox, ensuring I don’t miss it.

Alright, starting from tomorrow I’ll keep posting about the course mostly, since keeping silence hurts a lot. I won’t post the whole content, but rather each lesson with a brief summary, some sneak peeks about the process of writing & coding and so on.

I’m afraid people will unsubscribe, but reputation is at stake, and I’d better lose 100 subs, then credibility from others
