HARVARD EXTENSION STUDENTS ARE SAYING…

Jen is one of the clearest and most concise instructors I have learned from. She delivers information to the student with a polished, professional, and entertaining delivery.

Jen's videos are precise and easy to understand for a newbie like me. I love her emphasis on 'mistakes are okay' because when you mess something up drastically on your site, it feels like less of a defeat - more of a lesson learned.

Clear, knowledgeable, and comfortable with who she is and what she knows. She is also understanding and compassionate. Jen Kramer stays on topic and utilizes every possible moment for helping us learn.

My biggest takeaway so far is that it is not only important for a website or an application to be interactive and user friendly but also accessible to every human!

…sometimes it takes a lot of trial and error (experimenting) to make thing work the way you want them to. I learned from Jen to have more patience with myself, and that it's all about trying.

LINKEDIN LEARNING USERS ARE SAYING…

The instructor's way of explaining was very clear and she was well-spoken- in the very top few of all the instructors whose LinkedIn courses I've taken.

Passion is infectious! Jen is extremely articulate and clear- but she also has an enthusiastic tone in her voice that for me makes her more fun to listen to and adds excitement to whatever topic she's talking about! I would strongly consider taking other courses she is teaching based on her teaching style.

I would highly recommend this course to every web developer because Jen is an in-depth instructor with clear explanations and on-point examples.

This is the second course I've taken with Jen Kramer and I want to take all of her courses. She is SUCH a great teacher. She makes everything so easy to follow and helps make sense of things I thought I knew but never fully understood. Her pace is perfect, and her examples really help me retain everything she is talking about. I wish I had learned HTML and CSS from her the first time around. I am finally starting to understand why so many of the things I try don't work (and why they don't work), and how to style properly and with less code. Thank you!

I love how Jen presented her information and walked me through the whole process. Short, sweet, to the point and very precise. Love it, love it, love it!
