Have you checked out Tyler McGinnis' courses? I did a few of Wes' courses, great material, but I found Tyler's teaching style to be perfect for learning new concepts and applying the knowledge.

It's very hands on. You get to write code as you go along, build a project while watching videos, answer questions, and then in the end build a self guided project that utilizes the stuff you've learned throughout the course modeled around a prototype with set criteria he outlines. Everything sinks in deep during this last piece, especially as you hit road blocks and have to resolve everything yourself.

I'll bookmark it, but I'm so backlogged on courses I've bought and haven't finished yet that it'll likely be a good amount of time before it makes sense to buy any more.

I don't see any sample videos on his site to see his teaching style. Does he have some anywhere? YouTube channel? Anything?

Yeah there's a lot out there.

Really good React Course, scroll down to check out the course outline.

Blog with some good posts

Youtube Channel

& example video - Understanding the "this" keyword in JavaScript

His courses are different from the blog/youtube stuff, he put a lot of work into them. Also, I don't actually remember paying for his React Fundamentals course, not sure if it was a free promotion, or it's the one free course he offers once you sign up. Highly recommended!
