Some questions are repeated which makes it a bit easier. But this is also an advantage because you get to revise you knowledge and ir boosts your confidence which is also positive as it is a beginners course.

Has all the basics and the teacher is explaining the concepts reasonably well. I liked the resources provide. It would have been better to have more in depth external reading resources linked with the course specially around investing and taxation.

Gives a good overview of investing and different types of investment, but I don't feel it's enough to actually get you started

Really great for learning the basics! I live in Canada, so I found it a bit too American. Some glitches in the Week 4 videos. Overall v helpful course.

Very common course and some info is applicable only to the US. If remove the whole water it will be much shorter

The course provides good information on Stocks, bonds, ETFs and other investment types. Most of the course is broken down enough to be understandable.  I didn’t know much about ETFs before taking course.  Now I know more. It is a good course overall for a beginner investor like me.

However, some lessons are confusing. Some lessons could be explained better. The course focuses on Mutual funds heavily. I have no experience with Mutual funds and little desire to find out .

I like this course because it provides a foundation in the basic principles of investing, such as understanding different types of investments (stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc.), how markets work, and the relationship between risk and return.

Thank you for the course. Technical issues were a bit bothering, especially when you didn't check the mic. Also, talking to students, not reading the script, would improve the course significantly. Good luck with the future attempts!
