This is my first time ever taking a psychology class, I have always wanted to but never seemed like the right fit at that moment. Professor Bloom's online course has been really interesting and insightful. Mr. Bloom is engaging and the format of the videos are well done! I would recommend this class to everyone.

Really great course, the teacher was very good at explaining things and I felt he talked slow enough for me to take notes and understand. I love that I could always pause the video and finish my notes and re watch it if I needed as well, it helped me learn everything tremendously! Thank you I've learned so much.

This is an excellent course especially for the beginners of this subject. The lecturer is amazing and the examples given by him makes it easier to understand the very technical terms and concepts. On the other hand, the course content is well-organized. I highly recommend for anyone to want to follow the course.

It was easy to follow along with all of the information.

The format of short videos ranging from 3-10 minutes on average made it flexible and easy to fit around my schedule.

Having due dates and times for the quizzes encouraged me to finish each weeks content in a week instead of leaving it all to the last minute.

High quality online course !

The lectures were clear and engaging.The Youtube videos,Ted Talks as well as the additional reading material provided

complement the lectures and go into more detail with plenty of references to learn more.

This course provides you with a thorough basic understanding of psychology.

This course was very helpful in helping me get immersed into psychology and how the mind works. The lectures are very informative and the topics being discussed always keep you intrigued and wanting to learn more. Overall it was an enjoyable experience and I wish I could experience it for the first time again.

Not only enhanced my current knowledge but most importantly restructured & reorganized pre-existing knowledge putting everything in row & place! Extremely clear, concrete and to-the-point content focusing on science and not "academic-mism". Thank you very much for the background work done & opportunity offered!

Professor Paul Bloom is a wonderful lecturer, who capture the audience with easiness. He can explain everithing in such a way that even atendees whith no prior knowledge of the subject could follow the topics and remain engaged. I found the course enlightening and personally I would love to see a continuation.

Although it is not a subject I plan on pursuing further, I believe that knowing psychology fundamentals is useful for both one's relationship with others, himself and his/her environment. Professor Bloom is a great speaker, his lectures are very nicely constructed, have a good flow are and seamlessly connected.

An overall outstanding course with an extremely knowledgeable professor! Professor Bloom manages to balance a delightful overview of this intriguing scientific field while satisfyingly explaining each unique theory and expanding the student's understanding of how each individual field corresponds to the others.

Before taking this course, I used to think that the whole field of psychology was fake and superficial. Now, having studied it, I can say that it is a legit science that is very helpful to those in need. Thank you Professor Bloom for all the knowledge, insights, great lectures, and articles you shared with me.

This course has giving me a better foundation in understanding psychology. Our professor's lectures were clear even in the complexity of psychology through his style of teaching. He also managed to express himself and give us a real life experience on an online course. And that in it-self is amazing!

Thank you!

Its really a wonderful experience to go through this course. The course provided much more than I had expected. although its my first course in psychology I look forward to learn the subject in deep and apply as much as I can in my personal life and to help my near and dear ones. thanks a lot for this course.

Kia ora Prof. Bloom,

The course content was superb. I really appreciated the balance of readings, animation and the structure of the assessment quizzes.

I am considering further postgraduate organisational psych studies here in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Very informative and I love how Prof. Bloom incorporated some moral lessons like humility at the beginning and end of the course. It makes it more relatable therefore interesting. I alos appreciate that Prof. Bloom suggested steps on what to do next after this course. It makes me want to pursue learning more.

This course in psychology talks about many things that we can help people who suffer in their lives, because everything they talk about in this course is very important. It is a course that I like and I would love to recommend to other people who give themselves the opportunity to learn more about psychology.

This is my first completed course on Coursera. Overall, a pretty good course. Made me know a little bit more about whats going on in my head. Prof. Paul Bloom explain it in such an engaging way. Also, thank you for Yale University and the animators for all their hardwork on making this course free to access.

An excellent course that will give you a deeper understanding of the basic aspects of psychology. Perfect if you want to expand your knowledge of the subject or if you, like me, wanted some more knowledge about it before going off to university! Would recommend this to anyone who is interested in psychology.

Agradecer la experiencia y oportunidad de haber llevado el curso de "Introducción a la psicología", me ayudado a nivel personal a comprender y aprender a manejar situaciones emocionales, y también me da herramientas y recursos que me ayudarán en mi trabajo. Los vídeos y lecturas han sido claras y precisas.

This was my first online course after my retirement. I enjoyed the course very much. It provided a concise survey of psychology with all the basic elements necessary for understanding the processes we all undergo all the time from our birth to the very end of life. I wholeheartedly recommend to everybody.

Before taking it I thought I knew everything about psychology (not everything but had a good notion of it), but then I found out I didn't - it was all common sense and not science. This course breaks so many misconceptions we have, it is just great! I loved taking it. Thank you to Professor Bloom and Yale!

Prof Bloom is absolutely amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed taking this class. His enthusiasm and knowledge towards this class made it easy to participate and stay engaged in the materials. Thank you ! I hope to see more of your classes & lectures on this site !

I really recommend this course. I was so very interested in Psychology since many years ago, how out brain works, why we think what we think, the personality, some emotions, you can find these topics in here. The professor Paul is great, he has a lot of experience, and give very good stories and examples.

Very well structured, professor Bloom's delivery is perfect, he makes the course easy to understand, engaging and interesting, and the animations make the whole experience more dynamic. The content and lectures have a lot of information that can be of much help afterwards. I'm very pleased by this course.
