A very modern way of teaching, rather a learning accompaniment. I liked her understandable language, so there is no scientific psychological knowledge necessary.
Thanks a lot for the ten week, which let my level of happiness increase.

Excellent course, I highly recommend it. This was my first time using Coursera and I really enjoyed the setup of the class, it was easy to follow along and keep my attention during the lectures by breaking them up into smaller videos.

Excellent! In this social media driven society, this should be a required course for all college age students. I helps put the important things in life in perspective and many young adults are not taught what true reality really is.

So interesting! It's impossible not to listen to Dr. Santos' lectures, see the data and the logic behind them, and not come away ready to make some big changes to help improve the level of happiness in your own life. Totally worth it.

This is a course that is meant to be taken by everyone. It helped me improve a lot. I even think these kinds of courses should be taught to students from the middle school level. It will help facilitate better growth of the students.
