Hello Mr. Landers.

I think that it is a good course. I appreciate the your effort.

But if you allow me a constructive criticism:

- I don´t like a course that I am navegated to other web sites. I prefer a course in wich all contents are original.

- Adicitonaly, I would like to coment that I have taken several courses by the University of Pensylvania for free. I could complete these courses; even the qualified assesments. I didn't get a certificated, but I could make all the exercices.

Despite what I have said before, I recommend the course.

Whith best regards.

Thank you very much for helpful tips during this course. It is a very good course for people, who is fluent in English. Most of the people enrolled in course didn't speak English, and didn't understand assignments. In description it says learners should be intermediate level in English, but people do not realize what intermediate level is in different countries. It would be helpful to include pretest for people who wants to enroll, so they don't waste their time. Most of the people need to learn basic English grammar first, then do this course.

The course is very helpful and taught me very important things. Mr. Landers is a great communicator; he always smiles and speaks clearly and with a great speed. The reason I giving the course three stars is because of its set up. Some screens appear discontinued, some buttons do not do what they should and most importantly, the submitted assignments are not assigned to others in a timely manner for them to be graded. There are many people complaining about this and it does not seem that someone at Coursera has taken action about it.

It seems to be a Pre-Intermediate General English course. The content is very basic. If you are a more advanced learner who wants to improve their professional writing skills or business communication skills, this course is not worth your time and money.

The curs give a good overview, how to write official emails. Somtimes the evaluator are not so friendly and gave bad votes without a reason. It will be apassably vocabulary assumed. All in all, it is a good curs, to bringing back the asics.

This course is very helpful but there's an issue .I enrolled with financial aid but for completing

my assessments it asks me money ,what's the use of using financial aid if you can't even complete the course without money .

I really learned a lot from this course and gained a lot of information that was great and useful for me. but I think this course needs some more information and more details, also it needs more hands-on.

Course material is fine for the subject, the more problematic part is the way its graded, with 5 peer reviewed assignments. Especially the first one which is quite tedious for the participants.

The course is good specially for non-native speakers, but the peers review really really sucks. I had to upload some task three or four times to be approved, that was a big waste of time.

Not bad for a basic course. It really depends on how much effort you put into the assignment and the people willing to critique your assignments.

It is really a simple course. If you're a professional who know how to speak English, I don't think you'll get anything from this course :(

Course 1: I believe it was oversimplified. There is very limited information provided by the instructor in a very slow manner.

Low text context ,high text Context (maybe week4) topic I felt un relevant. Apart from that topic everything is excellent.

A little more geared towards speakers whose English is an additional language. Some useful pointers throughout though!

THE ASSIGNMENTS SHOULDN'T BE PEER-GRADED. IT SHOULD RATHER BE MENTOR GRADED AND THAT WOULD SAVE TIME A LOT.

It's completed, right? Otherwise, how can I rate it?

But why the status still shows in-progress?

It's a simple but useful course, however, it's really hard to get your assignment peer-graded.
