Absolutely fantastic course with a wonderfully calm lecturer who delivers complex situations in an understandable way. The course material is superb and opens up avenues to explore. Thank you so much.

Super interesting, Andrew Szegedy-Maszak was an amazing teacher, the course was great, well condensed but it was so interesting that I would not mind a follow up course with more detail !

I love my Coursera Plus and Professor Andy seems like a very nice guy and is very knowledgeble. Unfortunately he is also very dry and monotonous. I made it through the first section and exam with a 90% but decided to withdraw from the Coursera offering and watch a similiar course on a different platform with a Professor who is more engaging. Hate to post negative reviews, especially since I failed to complete the entire course, but this one was just too boring to hold my attention any longer.

Horrid course. Questions asked on the quizzes are not emphasized by the instructor. Required Reading assignments continually shown as not available on the web when you click on the links. I am going to try to finish the course as I have paid for it, but am not going to take any further quizzes.

I couldn't read any of the assignments because the links didn't work. I could do everything else, but without the reading assignments, it was difficult to follow the instructor's allusions to the reading.

Lamentablemente, el audio no permite disfrutar de los vídeos apropiadamente. El material es más bien mediocre, muy descriptivo y extremadamente selectivo.
