Professor Paul Bloom was engaging and presented each discussion in a way that made it easy to retain the information. I learned a lot and would recommend this Introduction Course to Psychology to anyone who wanted to learn the basics, or see whether this area of study is an interest to them.

Thank you so much Prof. Blum for this most interesting course. The lectures were very clear structured and easy to understand. I learned so much in that interesting course and I would recommend this course to anyone who is interested in psychology. I’m happy to have been able to participate.

Amazing course!

The way he teaches, his eloquence, the animations, the questions he raises- Truly Amazing!

This course not only gave me a deeper understanding of psychology but also gave me a deeper appreciation for the miracle that is life and appreciate the complexity of the mind.

Loved it!

This was one of the best courses I have taken on here. The lectures were interesting and they put effort into the course material and how it was presented. It was a broad overview of psychology, yet was able to get into some very specific and interesting topics. I would highly recommend it.

Insightful course, great overview and course content, well structured modules and assessments.

Felt like I just got my teeth sunk into the course and it was over.

Definitely worth the time if you're looking for personal growth, to further your educational potential, or just out of Interest.

I got my degree in Psychology many moons ago and have been away from anything remotely academic for decades! The well presented engaging lectures, and interesting links to articles and videos has rekindled my interest in this facination subject. I thoroughly enjoyed this course, thank you!

Introduction to Psychology was very informative and covered a vast array of topics. The instructor Mr. Paul Bloom was very self explanatory in his various lectures making the course enjoyable and educational. To all the future students, I hope you will have as much fun learning as I did ☺️

Very engaging course! Professor Bloom is very good at presenting ideas in a clear and organized fashion. The videos weren't too long so you don't lose focus. I highly recommend taking this course if you are interested in psychology and are wondering if you should pursue it later on in life.

This course was very interesting and well planned. The content, i.e. the lessons along with the animations had me hooked till the end. I really liked the teaching style of Prof. Paul Bloom as not only did I understand everything, but I am now even more interested in the subject than before.

A pleasant professor and very interestin lectures. The animation is a nice plus. My objective was to just gain an overview of the subject and it has been fully achieved. Thanks Mr. Bloom for you clarity and for sharing your knowledge and your opinions with us. I would highly recommend it.

While Yale is a self-explanatory distinction in itself, Professor Bloom presents the course in the best possible way it can be. He balances the curriculum with simplicity and complexity in equal parts, making learning, and acquisition of knowledge throughout the course an absolute delight.

The course was a great experience. It offered the most interesting insights into how the human brain works. The difference of a child's brain and an adult's in particular triggered many new thoughts in my mind. Professor Bloom's great style of teaching also made the course more enjoyable.

A brilliant online course that has engaged and fascinated me during the coronavirus lockdown. Professor Bloom delivers an excellent series of lectures, supported by further reading lists. The video lectures are delightfully illustrated, totally elevating the experience of learning online.

I would like to thank Coursera and Yale university for making such an opportunity available for all.

unfortunately I can't pay for the certificate because of a financial distress, nowadays I'm working on my CV and I would be glad if the course certificate was mentioned there ..

best regards

This course opened up my mind to the finer nuances of psychology. I used to think it is very far-fetched and not significant to look into these aspects. But my understanding of them has now been awakened and I feel a profound meaning in numerous situtations after having done this course.

A great, interesting and relevant course. With an engaging teacher that will share his knowledge in a clear and very understandable way. A must-to-do course that will give you lots of insights on how our brain, body and emotions work and make of you the amazing person that you are !!!

The professor is engaging and with this being my third online structured program that is refreshing. The readings and references coincide with the course,it's easy to follow, now if they could only offer a degree program in counseling and mental health! Thanks for the great job y'all do!

Loved the course, very entertaining topics kept me engaged the whole time, If the entire certificate is done by this professor Im sure I can pass with flying colors and that would be wonderful as I work in spurts and traditional education really doesn't work with me but I love learning !

This is a very good introduction to the subject area. The lecturer is engaging, and the 'cartoon' presentation appealing. The range and depth of the topics covered seems very well-judged, and has inspired me to delve further into the subject matter. Many thanks for an excellent course.

Brilliant course, well structured, and very well taught. Prof Bloom explained everything perfectly - engaging and to the point. The animations are wonderful and pleasant without being distracting. The additional resources are very interesting and informative. Overall, excellent course.

I really loved this course. I took some psychology courses in university a coupe of decades ago and was not interested in it at all. But this was so interesting, engaging and easy to follow! Will be doing some more courses for sure. Thanks so much for spiking my curiosity in this area.

Gave me a good basic understanding of Psychology and it's various branches, providing me a clear idea and choice on which branch is suitable for further studies and research. Very compelling professor, and he works wonders in terms of making people understand him. Enjoyed it very much.

This helped me so much for my psychology class in school. Not only it helped me understand everything that the teacher says in school but also it makes me love psychology! I just get to love it so much and am really thankful for professor Bloom who created this wonderful course for us.

Excellent course. Comprehensive and challenging. Professor Bloom's lectures were clearly presented with alternative views and re-evaluations of established work. Reading material re-enforced the lectures. Stimulating and thought provoking. I will definitely be doing further courses.

Use this course as a crash course if you're an outsider and psychology interests you. If you are interested in this domain this course will lay out a strong foundation for you and push you in the right direction.

Best part of the course is the Professor! HANDS DOWN!

Worst part? NONE?!
