This course is both useful and interesting. Thanks to some given tasks of following TED lectures, I heard different opinions from all aspects and improved my note-taking skills.

Hello, I’ve completed all parts of my course and scored 98%, but one quiz (75%) is not letting me finish. The deadline is in 8 hours. Could you please unlock another attempt or mark it as complete?

Very long listening tasks while video quality is not very good. But some information is really important for me

Everything in this course is common sense, regardless whether you're ESL. There's an excessive amount of external content you have to watch, and the note-taking segment isn't helpful in practice
