I have really enjoyed learning this course, and professors made it so easy for me to understand the concept. As I was proceeding with the course, I applied some of the ideas and guess what? It worked

It's a course that sum up the most important skills you need to learn for your professional life. Amazing material and subject conducted in a very fun and appealing way. Thanks for both instructors.

Complex methods well explaines. I recommend this course to anyone who is looking for an initial induction in communications techniques.

The only reason why I didn't select 5 stars is because I missed more practical exercises

Really useful course but this type of content would benefit from having additional course notes covering the main points so that I could refer to it in future (i.e. when looking to structure presentation slide packs, etc)

The instructors gave a clear explanation completed with an example or two. I personally think that this course will be better if there is any practical assignment to see or give suggestion for the learner's understanding

I found the Ted Talks and reading articles to be super helpful and will probably refer back to them in the future. This class made me feel more confident about running a meeting or giving a presentation.

Great course on persuasion, but rather little on storytelling. Good content with good examples. But it can be too, much too fast. Its the kind of course that cries out for loads of practical exercises.

Content was great, but some of the test material seemed to be scoring incorrectly and I never heard back from my inquiry. Also, there were a lot of typos. A bit sloppy, but great overall content.

The information provided in the course was very valuable. Unfortunately, the translated text was consistently incorrect. As someone who learns by reading, the inaccuracies were distracting.

Videos were great but the assessment questions had room for improvement - a number of typos and the occasional obvious answers that rendered the question moot.

The course is well-constructed and both the instructors are really good. I would suggest adding more examples and case studies,and lesser theories.

Great course. I would have appreciated if the material was more generic. Some techniques were difficult to apply to the science field.
