Q&A
How to pick the best course from many?
First, see how much it can teach you. You can roughly estimate from the last lesson. Second, see how detailed it can be and how many mistakes it contains. You can't easily achieve this if you are a beginner of the language. As a result, maybe you should expect to learn from more than one source, instead of picking the best one.
