This way, the student will be able to broaden their lexical and grammatical repertoire in English, thus increasing their professional value and skill, and contributing to not only professional but also social mobility.

More importantly, the course is held online, distributed massively, and accessible anywhere in the world through Coursera.

asi como en otros, deben dar la opcion de pagar el certificado antes, durante o al final del curso, porque pagaria algo que no me gusta si fuese asi? no tienen criterio o que? porque cobran algo en medio de una leccion? porque siempre todos siguen con la misma forma corriente y ordinaria de pedir plata?

LAS ACTIVIDADES NO FUNCIONAN, HAY AUDIOS QUE SE ESCUCHAN MAL, LOS TESTS ESTAN EN ESPAÑOL Y AUNQUE PONGAS LA RESPESTA QUE INDICA CORRECTA ESTÁ MALO IGUAL.
