TOP REVIEWS FROM TEAMWORK SKILLS: COMMUNICATING EFFECTIVELY IN GROUPS
One of the best online courses I've seen so far. Especially liked the the assignments because they forced you to think about the contents - nothing you would be able to find with a simple web search.
Thank you so much Mathew Sir, My Course instructor for the course where he is a very energetic person I have learnt the course successfully and earned the certificate too. Thank you Coursera
IT IS GOOD AND MORE HELPFUL TO IMPROVE KNOWLEDGE IN COMMINICATION IN GROUP WORKS AND IT WILL IMPROVE THE CONFIDENCE AND ALSO KNOWLEDGE WHERE AND HOW TO USE THE LANGUAGE AND DOING WORK IN GROUP
This is a well crafted and, considering the pandemic world situation which is having an effect on us all, it is prescient in its teaching. Well worth the time spent. Thank you Professor Koschmann.
