Thanks to your Modern JS, HTML & CSS and React courses I got a job in frontend. I started learning about 6 months ago, still got a lot to learn but you'll always be my first and the best teacher. Thanks for everythin', keep it up! <3 I''m still gonna watch this tut in my free time, maybe I'll learn somethin new

I've taken your React course on your channel. Man!!! the level of explanation. You are really one of the very best tutors for web dev Shaun...whatever I learn I come to NET NINJA to UNDERSTAND STUFF....

I really like the way you teach tutorials, because you understand what can worry to a begginer, and instead of just teaching as an expert as other teachers, you take your time to explain really basic things that probably would be obvious for an expert, but that are extremely useful to us begginers. You also have the empathy to tell us that at the beggining certain part could be confusing but we are later going to undertand it. Thas, as a student, makes me feel confident and learn in a better way. So I really thank you for this courses, becauses they are just great!

This is by far the best React course on All this other crash courses and tutorials are overly explained and complicated... I love your simplicity, I am literally coming from a React.js course that I finished here in youtube, and still clueless. But the way you explain everything leaves me saying "oohhh that is why..."
