If I created a Udemy account with my Gmail, then what's the difference between signing in with email and signing in with Google? Thanks in advance.

I am not sure what Udemy is or how it works, but on most websites that have a "sign in with Google" link, it means that you don't actually have a separate password for that website, instead you authenticate yourself by having a cookie for your Google account set in your browser.
