I was struggling in the first few lessons and tended to quit. However, thanks to the instructors sharing about their backgrounds, their goals, their sense of humor in-between the knowledge, I was motivated and kept picking of the lessons.

I am glad that I could finish Course 1. Can't wait what they have to offer in the future courses.

Worthwhile course for anyone interested in the IT field. Whether you leave here feeling this is the path you want to pursue or not, it definitely gives you an insight on what to expect. It also prepares anyone who doesn't have any IT background on what they need to work on. I really enjoyed it and leaving this course hungry for more!

I already have a bachelors degree in IT so this course was relatively easy for me but looking at a newcomer's standpoint it is a very good course just at the right difficulty for beginners. Everything is clear and to the point. There is no extra stuff thrown in there to mess with you like you may find at a proper university lecture.

Excelente curso, aprendí bastante sobre los conceptos más importantes que rigen al mundo del soporte técnico de IT. Las lecciones aprendidas me van a permitir ser mejor en el campo del soporte técnico y me han ayudado a mejorar en mi trabajo actual. Es un curso que yo recomiendo a las personas que se desenvuelven en el campo de IT.

I loved every moment of this course. I really enjoyed how the instructors were thorough with the information given. The only thing I would change is during the videos, when the instructor says something wrong and the bubble pops up to correct the mistake, just have the instructor "act" out that part again. It is kind of distracting.

My love for computers has always been a driving force for the things I do. Combine that with my job as a mix engineer and recording engineer, you get a enjoyment of all the techy stuff with the human interactions. I loved every bit of this and I am going for more. Thanks for bringing it Coursera, and thanks Google for providing it.

Great a course for absolute beginner interested in pursuing a career in IT! Intro to history of computers, architecture and computer logic, as well as networking, operating systems, cybersecurity, customer service, and even helpful knowledge on the interview process!

This course is geared towards beginners in the industry. 4.5 stars for a solid introduction to several relevant topics. If you are looking at this from the perspective of someone with intermediate (or higher) experience looking for a refresher, portions of this course will likely be a bit too easy (4 stars from that perspective).

I thought this course was very informative. Moreso than some of the videos I watch while pursuing my degree at SNHU. I didn't get that "im confused" feeling, and if I did, it was very quickly resolved with the next video or later in the video.

I'm looking forward to the next one in line to becoming a Google IT Support Specialist

This coures gives you an overview of what IT is and what your role will be. It helps you to understand all the different avenues in IT. The videos were helpful along with the notes. My only negative is that on some of the quizes a wrong answer didnt always tell you the correct answer. I am looking forward to moving on to course 2.

As someone who has been doing tech support for a while, I really appreciate the scenarios. As silly as they may seem, they are exactly things I have experienced before. This is especially for the one where the customer wanted to hear from the male tech instead of believing the woman tech. This helped solidify these courses for me.

Wonderful Course instructor and easy to learn method of lecturing. It was an insightful session for me and I greatly appreciate Coursera and Google for putting this together. For the financial aid given, i say a big thank you, because I was given attention to like those paid for their enrolment. Warmest regards to the entire crew.

Responding to support requests personally makes it easier for users to contact us directly, shows that you are taking responsibility and makes your team more approachable. Having confidence in support interaction and using positive lexis reassures users that you are in control of their issue and will solve it as quick as possible.

The instructors were very good at explaining the material very intuitively . How the course is design helps the learning process very smooth and easy. Through text, in person video, hearing. And on top of that it allows you to revisit the material that helps the material stick. The visuals were very helpful too. Thank you Google!!
