This is a very well structure course that I think anyone who is interested in IT or Computer Science will enjoy. The Google Course includes historical information that I really enjoyed learning about.

I really enjoyed it. It was engaging, challenging and rewarding. It was the perfect mix of the three. I look forward to my 3rd class with Coursera, to complete my Google IT certification.

The best online course I've taken in my life, I learned many new things, before this course, I didn't even know what IT Support specialist is, enrolling to this course is more than worth it!

Google courses always break down everything so it can be understood by the very basic beginner and this course is no different. It has the very basics and goes quite deep in customer service

Great course, very informational. Google does a wonderful job explaining everything and preparing you for the IT world if you are new, or helping you understand more if you have experience.

It was really a very great eye opener in understanding and implementing the basis aspect of computer support skills . The labs were so interactive just like a real scenario problem solving .

Great fundamentals. There are a couple places where clarification could be used. Some things that are on the quiz were "briefly" touched on during the video material. Otherwise, great stuff!

In general the course I liked, the content is very interesting and very well explained.

On the other hand, I would have preferred to have included more illustrative and interactive material.

I've been used to the traditional method of learning, didn't think I could pull this off considering it's a field I'm entirely new to, but, the lectures were concise and easy to understand.

The course was very informative, and what I liked the most was that the instructors explained the topic in simple language so that even non-native speakers could understand it.

Many Thanks!!

I would only suggest to have a few more visuals. I'm a visual learner, and really like hands on types of learning. This course was great but I'd love a little more involved work! Thank you!

Simple course, but filled with your basic good information for starting in IT. I currently work as a Web Developer. Just exploring the other fields of IT and I honestly found this to be Ok.
