It's really hard to follow along with the sub-par subtitles and audio issues present in these modules. Unfortunately I'm going to have to discontinue this course.

Really really poorly done. The video and audio quality of the lectures, as well as the professionalism of the lecturers themselves is downright embarrassing.

Worst audio quality lectures I've ever taken to this date, I couldn't even continue the course.

Please improve audio quality we are living in 2021 not 1921.

This course is not for me. I'm a visual person and need the instructor slides to catch the progress of the class.

Don't like to sit down and look at videos.

Lectures were rough. The information is there and definitely needed; however the presentations are very dry. It was very hard to focus through the videos.

Outdated by about 3-4 years. Blurry videos, muffled sound. Contradictions between course content provided and quiz questions and answers.
