Nader is an excellent teacher. I especially like the clarity, volume, and cadence of his lectures. He covered the essential information about getting clients and writing gigs for beginning freelancers in easy-to-understand language. I will be reviewing this content as I launch my business as a freelance writer.

I liked the enthusiasm of Nader in this course. He was honest and shared the details of his personal experience he acquired in his freelance writing career. The tips are crisp and clear. I have learned the nitty-gritty of freelance writing by following this course. Although the course could have been much better by providing samples of pitching in newspapers and magazines.

I found some of the information very helpful, especially the info about pitching and pricing. I'm not a fan of freelance platforms, so didn't find that section helpful, and since I've been doing freelance work for a little while some of the info, like setting up a website, blog, and social media accounts, were things I'd already done. However, I think this is a good overall introduction to the basics of freelance writing, and appreciated the instructor's enthusiasm and willingness to share ideas.

Nice course Nader. The most useful hints for me were about pricing and freelance platforms.

My improvement suggestions are to include a section about paying taxes as a freelancer and to add more real-life examples about negotiation, acquiring clients and pricing.

A fantastic template for everything you want to do in all of freelance.
Teaches you how to package your content, pitch, and make sales.

All I would suggest is either another video or course on how to leverage your personality to make more money :)
