Definitely what I needed and the lectures are broken down to allow me to understand the concepts.

I am loving this course

By Ron Turcotte on 11/11/2020

A good match, but the delivery is so slow...

By Audrienne Womack on 11/10/2020

Wow! I learned so many different areas of psychology that I didn't realize before. I appreciated the review or rather the evolution of psychological thinking from the past to the present. I never heard of "positive psychology" before and found that to be quite interesting indeed as well as the break down of PERMA. Psychologist's Three Main Levels of Analysis is also something that I will read more about and take time to follow up on.

As a teacher or as an educator this is the best course I have come across. I will use the skills on students and try to understand my students in a better way.

By Julie Richardson on 9/26/2020

Very interesting, a lot of theoretical knowledge. Some of the information is based on the USA which isn't relevant to me but there is a lot of knowledge to be gained that will assist you if you are working in a classroom or with children. Being given a strategies on how to address and manage children with the disorders would be extremely beneficial.
