Excellent course notes that can be used for a reference in real life after completing the course. Great practice problems with solution explanations in the notes, and clear and concise lecture videos.

The course materials are well prepared and organised. The teaching style is approachable and clear. I have learned a lot from this course. Thank you so much, and wish you all the best Prof. Chasnov!

Great course - it is a beginner course for differential equations, but you need a sound basis in single variable calculus as the course gets difficult from week 3 onward!
Overall, I am very happy to have studied this course and learned a lot in the process.

This course is valuable for engineering students. Saying so, if you are a mathematics lover, do join this course as you will be expanding your knowledge. The lectures and reading materials are very helpful. I enjoyed being a part of this course. Thank you.

This is an excellent overview of the subject. Although I wish there was more coverage of partial differential equations, I understand the limitations of a four week course, and feel that Prof. Chasnov did an excellent job of covering the important topics.

I really learned a lot about differential equations from this course and enjoyed taking it. Prof. Chasnov explains things really well and the exercise problems and quizzes were well-designed and helped a lot in making sure the topics are well understood.

The professor explains everything in great details in a calm manner. After each video there is a small but not trivial exercise which I found very useful in consolidating the concept. Highly recommend for anyone who want to study Differential Equations.

Exceptional work. I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to anyone starting differential equations. It will allows you to have a broad view of topics, before delving further into some of particular interest with other course (if you elect to).

Although personally speaking this course is the most difficult one in this series, the course arrangement is systematic and reasonable. Students can easily follow the course. Hoping Professor could come up more high-quality series courses like this!

excellent course! Jeff has awesome enthusiasm and explains things incredibly clearly and well. I really enjoyed this course. I am really looking forward to his future courses. Some tensor stuff or more applied pdes for fluid mechanics or or or... :-)

I took this as a review course and had a great time time learning from Professor Chasnov. His videos and readings made learning differential equations very straightforward, and using real world problems helped put them in an engineering context.

Another excellent course from professor Chesnov. Covers mostly the basics of differential equations but does it in a very straightforward and intuitive way. Interesting applications. Recommended as a refresher for other, more extensive courses.

Excellent course! The videos are really informative and easy to follow, great quizzes and course compendium. I have learned a lot from this course that I can apply when solving various differential equations when modeling physical phenoma.

One who has some knowledge of college physics would achieve a better understanding of a small part of the contents, but even without the knowledge, one would find the course a very helpful review of ways to solve differential equations.

Solving the diffusion equation by Fourier series is very illuminating. As far as I can work out, Professor Chasnov's course shows in principle how spatial spectral components can arise directly from an underlying differential equation.

Excellent course. Excellent teacher. Well balanced. I'd recommend it to anyone interested in this subject. I took Diff. E.Q. as an undergrad in 1974. Glad to see nothing has changed much in the past 46 years ... or make that 349 years.

Best course I've taken online.
Simple and explicit approaches, the teacher masters what he does. I am happy to take this course. I learned a lot of things and I feel that I have better skills in Diffenrential Equations as an engineer

I took this course as a refresher before I start my PHD and it definitely gave me what I wanted. It's simple enough to work well for beginners and comprehensive enough to give you all you need to start working more difficult topics.

Amazing Course. Every aspect of the differential equation has been explained thoroughly with an ample amount of practice and examples. The key outcome was to learn modeling physical problem as a differential equation and solving it

Excellent introductory or review course on ordinary and partial differential equations. I enjoyed very much this course. I am a retired engineering professor reviewing math applications, and I found this course very helpful.

Well balanced between video lectures and quizzes. The videos are very pedagogical and the right length to digest. A good reading material is provided as well, but the solutions to quizzed could be slightly more detailed.
