I find it very clearly presented and well organized. I really enjoyed it. Thank you! I liked it so much that I decided to translate it in my mother language so I can refresh the notions learned.

Excellent course!!! I enjoyed the historical background the lecturer used including the brief synopsis of the Chinese emperor consuming mercury pills to gain immortality.

On the whole this course was worth my time. I had never taken a chemistry class and I was looking for a course to prepare me for other science courses that required a background in basic chemistry. I found the course very easy and quick. All concepts were well explained, except those in week 6, where a plethora of new and basically unexplained notation (Lewis Dot models, chemical structure diagrams) made the lectures harder to follow. I expect that I will learn more about that notation in the second course.

It was a wonderful experience. All lectures were excellent. Simple and clear kind of lecturing it was very easy and interesting to follow. Sometimes i feel sad if my phone shows low battery power during the class time. I hope i could attend almost week exercises well. Demonstrations also very helpful. I spent time for getting better mark by repeating exams when ever my percentage become low. Special thanks to Prof. Dorian Canelas.

Great content! As a thirteen-year-old having virtually basic to no prior knowledge in stoichiometry, I found this incredibly useful. Very approachable, and quizzes were actually easy and doable once you've gotten the hang of the core concepts. But honestly - honors were grim but rewarding! Overall, a very good course to opt for if you're willing to take my word and your time for it. :)

I have not had chemistry for about 12 years but was able to follow the course without any problems in order to review the basic concepts of chemistry. It's really for beginners, but still makes you feel the progress of what you've learned while advancing the class. A good balance between theoretical concepts and stoichiometrical calculation. Thanks!!

Отличный курс для начинающих: материал структурирован, много примеров и задач, а лектор подробно объясняет правила, расчёты по формулам и типы химических реакций. Единственный минус — некоторые задания на платформе Coursera сформулированы неоднозначно, но в целом курс даёт прочную базу по общей химии

Quality course. Very basic in material but fabulous to understand nomenclature and other technical necessities. I used it to prepare for a honors chemistry course I am taking in my sophomore year of high school. It, in my opinion, is perfect for that use.

Le doy 4 estrellas,bien explciado pero por motivos de mi establecimiento debi temrinarlo rapido no logre hacer los demas ejercicios con honores y aparte mu buena explicacion para retroaliementar los temas vistos

There were some errors in the video playback, one entire lesson near the end seemed like it was skipped.

I wish more time was spent going over the mathematical equations and more examples were given.
