by Asma R. on June 28, 2025
Very informative, despite having taken a sociology in high school, the way the concepts were taught felt like i was learning for the first time
by Ryan R. on June 28, 2025
This class was massive and took me forever. There was so much to learn. But the docs were very good, and the topics were organized extremely well.
by Sapresha G. on June 28, 2025
Great course. Highly recommend!
by Harmony H. on June 28, 2025
This was a very immersive course not only with language but learning about Spanish culture too! I highly recommend this course, it was efficient, knowledge-packed, and I really enjoyed it!
by Jeffrey M. on June 28, 2025
This course was very involved. It offered a lot of good material and a lot of information that was enjoyable to learn.
by Faisal B. on June 28, 2025
Just wrapped up my microbiology course—what a wild ride through the invisible world! From bacteria to viruses, immunity to infections, every chapter opened my eyes to how life truly works at the microscopic level. Super grateful for the knowledge, and honestly, I’ll never look at yogurt or antibiotics the same way again!
by Fernando D. on June 28, 2025
This was pretty easy, the graphs at first were in fact difficult but after a few tries it was smooth towards the final milestone everything was crunched together and was a little difficult but nothing crazy
