Great course. I come from a non-literary background, but currently work as a Content specialist. This course gave me so much insight into the amazing world of the English Language. Really helped me step into my career with a lot of confidence.

Good info that is useful to a general audience. I enjoyed what was taught and I liked having a refresher of what makes a good written document.I'd encourage the team to work on creating a better video. Some issues with white balance and editing. Also,, try to use the in-video quiz feature of Coursera to test people's knowledge.
Videos seemed unpolished. Instructor referred to resources that were never provided. Seems more like the first draft of a course than a finished course.
As a business professional looking to expand my knowledge base, I found this course helpful and would recommend it to anyone who interacts with company customers and management.
