Sounds like a great piece of advice!  😁 ... View more

Keep in mind that the rules will attract or take away good instructors. You may feel that the rule will "select", in fact, they exclude.   I was attracted by Udemy since the course are cheap, and it seems so many people will have access, and I love teaching.   Would you like to have a low-cost course by an expert? Do you believe that an expert will risk his/her career on Udemy?  See that Udemy should not just think about the student, the instructor also should be protected, and considered on the overall rules. The environment should be also friendly to instructors, if they want to retain talents. Not all topics are easy to teach, and be friendly. "Are you saying people complain online and if they are happy, they won’t give a review? " more or less that. It is a curious fact, I must say. No reason why, if there is any scientific study. I would love to hear also from people that give me good evaluations, I am not perfect, even when I am well-evaluated. On the other hand, I am not that bad, as the negative reviews tend to point to. At least for me, those negative reviews are useless, and I have created a ChatGPT app to read them, and give me back just the facts.   ... View more

Dear Rookie, thanks for your feedback. After reading several replies here, and other discussions and more, I have the feeling my educations I was tough. During my school time, I have learnt that the student is responsible for their learning path; the professor does its best. I had several bad professors, and I had learnt to overcome that; in my case, there were no possibilities to complain. For instance, now I am reading a book, the book is outdated 6 years, in coding it is a lot. I am reading the book anyway, and adapting the codes.  I could go do Amazon and complain, and remain crying about the author’s flaw, how he should update the book, and codes.  For me, you either want to learn or complain, you brain cannot do both. When you are too much concerned about finding flaws on your instructor, which you will for sure find, you are not learning. Our brain is expert at finding flaws.   The first lesson I have learnt: the learning process is 70% or more the student's work, not the instructor. Thanks for the feedback, I still hold my position as instructor, and believe Udemy should handle better the reviews. Yours Sincerely, Jorge, Independent researcher and Writer     ... View more

Moreover, the pain never really goes away; even after more than 10 courses, seeing your rating destroyed by a bad review is hurtful.  ... View more
