This course is very insightful and I have learned quite a lot. My favourite area though is Clinical Psychology and Positive Psychology. I believe I will be better able to understand persons around me.

Paul Bloom was surprisingly engaging as a professor which I thought would be difficult to achieve for an online course. But perhaps that's self-fulling because one has to be enthusiastic and excited to learn about the material to want to complete the course...?

I strongly recommend this course for those who are interested in psychology. I especially appreciated Professor Bloom's own insights that he provided at the end of the sessions. To me, they were the perfect summaries of the each subjects thought on this course.

Prof. Bloom made the difference and while some might describe the way the lectures were presented as "monotonous", I perceive this as a big plus: I was able to follow everything and had no problems understanding the concepts and memorise the notions.
THANK YOU!

Each module was so interesting, I was debating between rushing through it or taking it slow savoring each week. The animation from Julia Veldman and that Prof Bloom sometimes sounded like Ze Frank makes this the best course I've taken here. Highly recommended!

Paul Bloom's lectures (and the associated texts) provide the perfect level of entertainment and information, while giving lots of suggestions for further reading and the baseline knowledge to carry out that further reading confidently. Love the animations too.
