Are courses on Udemy good?

Courses on Udemy are just like people...some are good and some are bad. Here are my thoughts on making the right choice.

Here are some of ways to determine if a course is worth it:

• check out it's ratings (a solid # of 5star ratings means it's a great course)
• see how many students have enrolled (a high number of students means that the course is quite successful, however don't judge on this alone...the course might be new)
• watch the intro and free preview lessons (most courses have some few lessons...watch them and get a feel of how those lessons are presented...see if the style of the author fits your learning style)

Also here are some tips on how to get a discount:

• subscribe to Udemy, they run almost on a weekly basis $10-$20 deals;
• search for facebook groups where you will find 100s of deals
• reach out to the author and ask if they have any active deals;

In fact to prove this last point, just reach out to me and I'll give you my last published course for $1, or even for free, if I'm in a good mood.
