    All the videos and assignments posted by the instructors are really amazing and i got my certificate I learned a lot in this course and equipped myself. This will help me in developing my career. The Video presentations made me to analyse my strength and weakness and o to overcome my weakness. The one thing i dislike about this course is the peer review assignment, i faced a really hard time because some idiots and stupids from the course doesn't know what was the objective of the course and reviewed my assignment and i got low marks. So i request the instructors to personally review assignments. Sorry for using harsh words but this is the sad truth many of the students enrolled are idiots ; for example in the place of submitting a video presentation they are submitting a audio, this proves them they are idiots.

    I really liked the course and how it is designed, I think it is very useful to get familiar with aspects related to pronunciation , intonation and rythmn. Most courses only provide useful expressions and specific vocabulary but this course offers the possibility of sounding natural and fluent in business environments.

    An elementary course for non-native English speakers in business communication which is beneficial to daily work settings. It helps me to boost more confidence in speaking English or using my native language and the skills of presentation to initiate sales calls.

    The course content was excellent as it engaged the learners completely. It was indeed a learning journey. However, I faced problems like my assignment not being graded appropriately. Secondly, I found some errors in the text for week 4 and the audio of the videos was inaudible. Thirdly, the way to reach out to support was not visible on any tab. I could somehow to get the access. But the support team was very helpful -Martha and Stan. Thank you!

    It is horribly long, that causes an overload because almost nothing is learned. The videos are too long instead of being concise and direct. It's horrible that other people who are NOT teachers check my homework or better to put other activities other than checking homework The final exam contains too many empty questions that in the end nothing will help me, instead of being a direct and clear exam.
