Overall, the course is very thorough and the videos make it a bit easier to understand. There are many difficult challenges to overcome, however, rewatching the content a few times will help retain and understand the information that is taught.

This course is one of the fantastic course that I ever participated via online mode. I admit that, this course is many times better in terms of content, practical approach and hands on training with other competitive online training platforms.

It was a phenomenal introductory course. It's not something that'll make you a networking guru, but as I said...its an introductory course. You'll get ample understanding about the underlying internet infrastructure that us humans have built.

Very good course for beginners to learn about networking and how the internet works. Be prepared for a lot of technical terms to be passed out, and read or research each term for a better understanding of the subjects you would need to know.

The journey through this course was pretty taught even for me coming from an IT background. I learned so many valuable technical stuff I will need to become an IT support specialist and I am glad I am able to go through all these resourses.

The instructor was awesome and a genuine one. Even though its a bit frustrating how this lesson is hard because of daunting terms. The explanation of him and immersive actions is truly genuine. Which definitely impacts the motivation I have

This one was harder than the first session but I was able to get through it. I feel like I need a bit more practice. If we can start getting like more practice questions and models to reinforce more. As long as you focus you should do fine.

Great job on the course, I would shorten it a little bit since it's a bunch of information.

Some of the things learned aren't really needed for the day to day job but good to know.

Thanks for the dedication and hard work creating this course.

Entender sobre redes e como deixar tudo oorganizado de uma simples e eficaz, foi o principal conceito que aprendi neste módulo.

Com base neste conhecimento pude executar algumas atividades na empresa de uma forma organizada e bem planejada.

Definitely very techy and you really get into the nitty-gritty of all things to do with networking, but it was well worth it and I'm glad I took this course. Just make sure you have some coffee or something near you to keep you focused lol

Overall it was okay just a bit challenging. You will need time, lots of attention and patience to go through this course if you're just a beginner. You might have to watch some of the videos over and over again to really grasp some staffs.

Great course to invest your time into and learn something interesting. Some concepts are tricky at first but when you revisit it ones or twice you get it all. Had a great time learning and experiencing it all. Thank you Coursera and Google

Not overly in-depth on all subject matter concerning Networking, it gives a solid fundamental understanding of the concepts and operations. Prior to this course, I did not understand the depth of knowledge needed for Networking operations.

Victor Escobedo is an AMAZING instructor. There was a lot of complex information in this course, but he did an incredible job of breaking it down. My only criticism for the course is that the tests had some pretty bogus questions on them.
