Forest Zemel
Courses Plus Student 550 PointsFeeling discouraged.
Hello everyone,
My name is Forest and I'm brand new to iOS development. I'm looking for some words of wisdom and or encouragement.
I briefly took some of the JavaScript course not long ago and the instructor was amazing. Everything he said and did clicked with me. After quite a few challenges and quizzes, there may have been 1 question that I didn't understand right away.
Currently, I'm taking the iOS beginner track with Pasan as an instructor. Now, it may just be me, but he loses me in almost every track. He's very fast paced, not descriptive, and doesn't exactly elaborate on any vocabulary he uses which makes it a little difficult for me to keep up(at least this is how I feel).
Does anyone have any advice? I really want to continue on this path but I'm struggling and feeling like I'm not really retaining much of anything.
