I like the way how Sebastian was taughting about too many complicated things in such an interesting way and having only 2 days, the training wasn't boring. In my opinion he's a guy with a great knowledge, knows very well what he is talking about, the language which he tries to talk with the audience is intelligible. Just keep the level I think.

Marek was AWESOME. And I insist... he really was awesome. His level of knowledge, enthusiasm, organisation... he really was well prepared and in-control of the course material. I loved he did demonstrations instead of diagrams... it was a lot more interactive, and we could answer questions related to the situation we were seeing.
