I love this course. It's broken down to simple bits which makes it easy to understand. I didn't like the polls that pop up in the videos but that's just a small thing compared to the value I received.

The professor makes high-quality videos that feel like you're in an in-person lecture. He shows a lot of passion towards the topic of the course. There are good quizzes that test your knowledge and there is one presentation. The strategies and skills that I learned in this short class will be very useful in my and your future.

I have to give a 5*. This can be biases since it is a topic that interests me and that I relate since I see on my work that communication is as important to achieve something as having the actual knowledge.
The course has taught me how to enhance my presentations and to make sure listeners remember the messages I want to pass.

I LOVE PIZZAS! and this course is equivalent to a pizza if courses were fast food.
One of the best courses I've done in my entire college life! If you are seeking personal development, leadership development or just a course to sit back and enjoy, this is the one! I've recommended this to practically every friend of mine!

This is the course i was searching for, but was lazy enough and could not put it in right words. The course description nailed it " The science behind soft skills" I am thankful and indebted to Ivan for this course. I thoroughly enjoyed it and i would highly recommend this course to anybody who wants to better themselves.

Content-wise, It was very good. Thanks very much. I'm looking forward to applying some of this stuff at work (actually already started :) )
The peer-reviews at the end were a little bit funny. I worked hard on my submission but not sure that others were as serious about it. That's on them though. The course was good.

I liked the course. The instructor is so confident and knowledgeable. He offered what he promised. I studied the course twice.
The production of his videos are perfect. The audio level is perfect. No flaws. No error.
I disliked the parts he inserted unrelated issues which seem to be enforced to be imposed everywhere.

This course was so amazing! I've actually saved the videos because I love how the instructor put out his points. The best part is when you reach the end of the course and realize (have the a-ha! moment ;) ) that Mr. Ivan was in fact implementing every point he taught! Loved this course, would definitely recommend it.

Me pareció excelente! en pocas semanas y videos cortos recorrimos técnicas relevantes para mejorar nuestra comunicación verbal presencial y virtual, me pareció muy útil, actualizado, y muy práctico. Fue un reto para mi hacer el video en ingles practicando los aprendizajes y me siento muy bien por haberlo logrado.

I appreciate Prof. Ruiz for his top-notch delivery. Also, thanks to his team that were able to put this together.

This course is very helpful for me because of it's content and trainer who covers three traps(I am one who got trapped very frequently), types of person(which helps me to communicate according to person to person), presentation skills, how to deliver your thoughts, Area 47, bargaining and many more points.

Unfortunately, I could not receive credit for this course due to the considerable time period it took for me to complete it (if you wait too long, quizes and assignments become locked), that said, Ivan was FANTASTIC. And, I truly enjoyed learning and freshening up on strategies for virtual communications.

I had high expectations for this course. Even so, it surprised me in a positive way. I feel like I can apply the knowledge I gained in it in my professional and academic life.

I really liked the course and Ivan, the teacher.
Learnt some interesting psychological theories, and the pratcical tools needed to use these theories in my advantage.
I learnt a lot about online pitchs, managing teams and meetings from a distance, effective presentation building methods and much more.

Very useful, using lots of examples, which makes it better to understand and remember. Very refreshing video presentations by Ivan Ruiz, also the additional resources (readings and videos used are very funny, eye catching, not boring). I applied already many steps from this course during studying.

The instructor made the course very interesting and enjoyable, easy to follow up on ideas and it was made sure that we don't get lost in too much or unnecessary details. The assignments are easy to complete and the course is also faisable with some extra work within shorter period than stated.
