    I really liked this course, It was an experience that provided me a better English experience, a practice and mainly writing skills. I only don't give five stars because I thought the exercises kinda specific, even you are not wrong you really should guess exactly the answer even has a lot of alternative answers.

    The course was interesting but the bad thing is having to review and grade the work of others. If you are learning english how it can be possible to grade the work of others.

    During this course you may get a lot of issues. Discover many interesting information from different countries. Also you may start to use wealphy vocabulary, improve writing and communication skills.
    Moreover I would love to notice that there are many repetitive materials. Its about when you need to grade another students. It’s useful to explore different opinions, but it may be boring as well. Anyway, the is always favor, it’s up on you.
    As for me, that course allowed me to practice English. Improve my level at reading, writing, listening, grammar and even speaking.
