There was a language barrier with the narration, so I had to rely heavily on the transcript which took longer to complete. Additionally, the transcript also had errors in it, and the course is still showing as in progress in DAU, whereas coursera shows completion. Otherwise the content of the course was very good and presented logically.

The course is not very well presented. There are a lot of moments when someone is talking but there is nothing to see. It's like someone is using a powerpoint presentation and talks freestyle on the matter.
