-## Instructions
-This repository has branches for each of the videos in the course. You can use the branch pop up menu in github to switch to a specific branch and take a look at the course at that stage, or you can add `/tree/BRANCH_NAME` to the URL to go to the branch you want to access.
+Go, a multi-paradigm programming language, features design patterns that allow developers to address common problems efficiently. In this course, senior developer advocate Joe Marini covers creation, structural, and behavioral design patterns. Joe begins with an overview of design patterns and design pattern categories. Then he gives you overviews and examples of several creational patterns, including builder pattern, factory pattern, and singleton pattern. He does the same for structural patterns, covering adapter patterns and facade patterns. Joe concludes with behavioral patterns such as an observer pattern and an iterator pattern.
 
-## Branches
-The branches are structured to correspond to the videos in the course. The naming convention is `CHAPTER#_MOVIE#`. As an example, the branch named `02_03` corresponds to the second chapter and the third video in that chapter. 
-Some branches will have a beginning and an end state. These are marked with the letters `b` for "beginning" and `e` for "end". The `b` branch contains the code as it is at the beginning of the movie. The `e` branch contains the code as it is at the end of the movie. The `main` branch holds the final state of the code when in the course.
 
-When switching from one exercise files branch to the next after making changes to the files, you may get a message like this:
+### Instructor
