I started this course with the goal of dipping my toes into economic theory to become more familiar with the terminology in the manuscripts I edit. (I’m a freelance English editor.) I ended up completing all three courses and obtaining my certification because the lectures were so engaging and fun. I particularly enjoyed the never-boring presentation, the visuals, and the way the assignments were designed. The fact that there was no pressure to achieve a high grade removed the temptation to ask for help. After completing this course I feel I can better understand the forces that shape our world, from micro to macroeconomics. The only downside is that I’m now seeing supply and demand curves everywhere, even in the contrails in the sky. What I’ve learned in these three courses now forms the backdrop of the economics stories I edit for my clients, making my job more enjoyable and the result more precise. The best part is that 20+ years after graduating from university, I’ve rediscovered the joy of learning. I never stopped learning, but this has been the first online course I’ve thoroughly enjoyed. I cannot recommend this course or the instructor more warmly!

Fun and engaging lectures, with good quiz and discussion questions that make you think. I think this is a very good course for learning the fundamentals of microeconomics.

Awsome course to learn the basics of Economics. The prof seems to be a really chill guy and he uses funny examples and stories to make his lectures more engaging!

I really like his personality and mood of this professor. He made economics fun for me.
