Excellent program. Wonderfully and entertainingly presented. Plenty of information with use of examples. Much use of peer assessment.

Engaging, low-commitment, and genuinely rewarding. An amazing learning experience for neophytes, dabblers, and practiced poets alike.

The instructor is very enthusiastic which helps. Great course but it could've been longer, more detailed and more technical perhaps.

This course got me writing poems again after a long time. It helped me refine my writing and the prompts were very though-provoking.

Great course to learn about the basics but also to gain the confidence to write one's own poems. Great professor. I loved the humor.

I enjoyed the experience of learning the step by step of making poem with Coursera. I love the workshop and the prompts given too...

This workshop made me realize that there are many ways to write a poetry and it was both exciting and hard but it made me satisfied

I truly enjoy this course. The videos are informative and fun. I learned a lot about the ins and outs of writing poetry. Thanks!

I enjoyed this course immensely. The videos were helpful and funny, the material was engaging, and the workshops kept me involved.

This was a vey good course, helped me o further develop my writing skills and learn new things. Very easy to follow through with.

I have written poetry for years, but this course really sharpened my focus and made me rethink the ways in which I express myself

Engaging course with fun videos. I especially liked the writing prompts. The feedback from my peers on my poems was very helpful.

The professor of this course is so entertaining and able to express the content of the course in a concise and efficient manner.

loved the whole experience, there should be a part 2 and when I get paid (and get a good grade) I will purchase the certificate.

I enjoyed this course! I learned a lot of new things on poetry that have helped me develop a more distinct style in my writing.

Extremely well designed course. Would recommend to anyone interested in writing poetry; beginners and experienced poets alike.

Well worth it, and the perfect mix of a refresher for forgotten topics as well as a great intro all new techniques and styles.

Excellent course, especially for those in the beginning stages of their poetry writing. Engaging lectures and fun activities.

Wonderful course which introduces the student to some of the fundametals of poetry writing beyond simply coming up with rhyme!

Really effective, engaging course. It's so valuable to have a lesson each week, and to get your work peer reviewed like this.
