    I am very motivated to finish the course. It's really complete and easy to follow due to the methodology. Instructors are very clear and exercises very helpful.
  • This course is very interesting, i've learned quite a few things already, which is very helping. I have not completed the course yet, and is looking forward to the rest of the material. It helps that i can do it at my own pace, because we don't all have time to be at a certain place at a certain time, that is why this is so great for me.

    It's all well and good, the knowledge is there and it's great for helping people who are total beginners but it's delivery is comes across quiet a bit on the condescending side. I'm not sure if this is just a cultural thing because it's from the States but it's painfully over explained most the time and I just want them to get to the point and get on with it. We're here to learn. I appreciate it may be an attempt to be fun but it all doesn't need to be so drawn out.
    I'm gonna see it out because the knowledge is all there and they know what they're on about, it's just too dressed up for my liking.

    This is a very nice course, it perfectly demonstrates the different areas of Psychology. Taking notes is easy as it clearly shows information, and even provides small quizzes. I would definitely recommend this course for beginners whom share the same interest for Psychology.

    As I have just started this course, so my review will be regarding the initial response of getting a feel for level of study and ongoing assessments. With regard to these two I have found them at the right level and number and so will help me to remember the key topics as I journey through this course. T he online tutor team who teach via the videos are clear and explain key points. I will give further reviews as I progress through this course but so far I am finding this course good
  • muito bom o curso..uma nova experiência para mim e na minha carreira de docente que estou colocando em pratica.
