The course setting is great and includes basic elements needed for beginners. But I wish we can get explanation after we submitted the quiz, in order to better understand the points, instead of guessing what is the right answer. Besides, we may repeat same mistakes in the near future since we have no idea about what is right in the end.

I like a lot this course, it helped me improving my skills. However, It was difficult to hear the voice of Ms. Gaskell, the volume of the tracks were too low. The exams should also be more practical and the general presentation/format should be improved. Thank you

Teachers should also grade our assignments, not just other classmates.

Some internet links in the readings no longer exist. The course content and materials need to be revised. It is noticeable that it is a few years old.

I liked it very much. The only thing I think you should try to focus is to explain a little bit more of the vocabulary and try to make some more audio practices.

It is a great course were you can learn a lot of skills for effective communication. i think that the audio from some videos should be fixed.

Overall is good. But some clips' volume need to fix and make it louder as it's hard to listen and study.
