I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for your exceptional instruction during course.My instructor was Sharif Minhazul Islam. His guidance and support have been invaluable to me throughout the learning process.Being part of your course has been a truly enriching experience.
As a very beginner I decided to do the course (Competitive Programming). It was a prosperous experience for me with 'Dev Skill'. I am well benefited with the course as a beginner and for this i am thankful to 'Dev Skill'. Specially i want to tell about our respectful teacher Sharif Minhazul Islam. He was with us throughout the course with a very helpful behavior. He tried to discuss in details even the small things. That was very helpful to build a clear concept in each step. His teaching method was very efficient and effective. There was a great consistency in his teaching method too. Almost it was a great work. Thank you.
The instructor, Sharif Minhazul, was outstanding. He discussed the topic very clearly and in depth. Give advice on what he learned about her learning journey. He told us how to think outside the box. Finally, he was a humble person; he answered every question, even if the question was less important, and he was very supportive.
The course was an incredible experience, largely thanks to the exceptional instructor who made learning both enjoyable and rewarding. Their friendly willingness to assist made the material more engaging and accessible. I am truly grateful for the instructor's invaluable contribution to the course. Through their guidance, I gained a wealth of knowledge and found the entire experience immensely fulfilling. I will recommend this course to anyone keen on exploring the world of competitive programming.
