An enjoyable course.
by Claudia S. on July 16, 2026
its amazing .....
by Claire G. on July 16, 2026
There’s a lot of things in the cultural lessons that I don’t appreciate. For example, one title of a book mentioned that was written in Spanish translates to foul language.
by Andrew H. on July 16, 2026
This course was great and I love that it was self-paced. I could work as fast or as slow as I wanted to. I also appreciated that the milestones were open book. I was able to go back to information that I didn't easily recall.
by Jose R. on July 16, 2026
Great course, recommend for sure covered a variety of topics, if have taken algebra in college you will have a good foundation. Love how its self paced.
