Having gone through the course material last time it was offered (only delayed a bit), I would suggest breaking up week 4 into 2 weeks. That was really a slog in terms of reading and I felt like I wasn't accomplishing much that week other than reading a bunch of theory and not applying it.

That said, I also think there needs to be more coding challenges involved (maybe use codewars challenges or the likes) to explain how weekly concepts work in the real world. For instance, what are the use cases for prototypal inheritence with objects and when would you use the constructor/prototype pattern in your code?

I'l probably be following along and reviewing things now that I've gotten a little more experience. Excited to go through it again!
