The trainer's attitude and the fact that he stopped at each problem/issue to help the ones in need He was also pretty laid back, making the training actually kind of fun and relaxing

Patrick was very helpful and provided real world examples and practices when working with Go. This was not a purely theoretical course on how to use Go, but how to actually develop with Go in the real world. He provided comparison with other languages in order to better explain certain concepts, which was very useful.
