The course was concise and to the point. No fluff included. All the lessons were effective in teaching the concepts of speech writing. The instructor was professional and engaging too. And the quizzes and assignments were icing on the cake. In fact, it would have been perfect if the final assessment had required the learners to craft their own speech and receive/provide feedback to/from their peers. It's still an incredible course nonetheless. That said, I'd like to thank the Coursera Instructor Network for putting together such an informative and constructive course. I thoroughly enjoyed it and highly recommend it to others.
