Very useful ideas and resources!
Not that good!
Great input!
I liked that this course inspired me tons to look into my finances and how they impact the globe. But I admit it was a lot of stuff I didn't really understand. The professional talk was over my head. So yes - great inspiration, but I did not understand it all. English is not my native language, but I am usually doing pretty well with it (studying science articles within the areas of medicine, sports, birth, psychology etc. and listening to audiobooks and courses mainly in English) so I did not expect this course to be difficult language-wise. I also liked the upbeat instructor.
Smart content and beautiful hair ;-)
This is a fantastic course, great ideas and I agree with everything in it so FIVE STARS. However...... 1. The Intro is way way way way too fast. I had trouble keeping up and my first language is English. Had I not already been alligned with the thinking behind this course, I'd have stopped, somewhat shell-shocked and not enrolled. 2. This course is FREE. Well, great BUT hang on....the course has got my interest. Why not make it PAID but give away coupons - there are at least 30 facebook sites where you can do this. You'd still get hundreds enrolling but the big difference is that they would be enrolling on a PAID course and so there would be a Q/A section. This really is a big deal because if I wanted to ask the Instructor what she meant by a 'fair' wage then I would ask in the Q/A but as it's free there is no Q/A. I could go to the site and ask but then there'd be no discussion actually on the Udemy course. Of course the same applied to other questions I or interested students may have. It's a major opportunity this course is missing. Make it paid and also keep it free and help really spread the word. Oh and re-do the Intro otherwise about 30% of students who actually want to listen and understand, will be totally lost
