    Through this course, I have chance to enhance my English skills in many aspects.

    I really liked the content of the Course ... however ...

    I have been informing you that the pages with the activities to record my voice do not work, all the "Speaking" Exercises, I have not been able to deliver them, I have already tried to work them on the Chrome, Edge and Firefox browsers, as well as on Windows and Mac platforms.

    Realmente me gustó el contenido del Curso... sin embargo...

    He estado informándoles que no funcionan las páginas con las actividades para grabar mi voz, todos los Ejercicios de "Speaking", no los he podido entregar, ya intenté trabajarlos en los navegaroes Chrome, Edge y Firefox, así como en plataformas Windows y Mac.

    It is a properly course. I liked the way the content was seen.

    I suggest to improve audio quality: sometimes is difficult to understand. It is necessary to check the videos transcripts as well. (I found typos).

    Thanks for the course!

    The exercises are somehow tricky because there could be more than one correct answer. However alternative answers are marked wrong. Also, the level of this course is lower intermediate. Find it not challenging/informative enough for upper-intermediate learners.
