Learner Reviews & Feedback for Quantitative Foundations for International Business by University of London
About the Course
Top reviews
It was interesting course and i really enjoyed a lot. Thanks to all professor to deliver the great lectures and thanks to University of London to organized such a great course.
This course was really good because I remembered all the maths I learned during my career and now I understand why these mathematical operations are so important in Business.

•Gives you experience of the Quantum World and Maths.

•Some topics are not well explain (for example matrix) and for several topis you need some previous knowledge. Also as some other comments refer, the profesor that explains the first video of each course never explains anithing, insted, his students explains all the topics (and they try their best with lot of effort, but they are not the best teachers... they only read the equations!!!) Just to improve, make better videos, maybe only with a board and a penn and just explain all the topics!

•the PhD teacher simply and clearly reads what she says, even in bad way. Sometimes she gives the impression she doesn't understand what she reads. I can't believe UofL can consider this approach a way to teach.
The material offered is not enough to pass the test, so i had to surf on internet and check on my old math books to study in deep

•I felt there should have been more reading material, I'm sure I'm not the only one who struggled to follow the videos. I add the instructors were excellent but my preference is to read rather than continually watch. It can be exhausting stopping and starting to catch all notes.

•The Lecture should be more practical as I recommend the lecturer show more examples as it was confusing and I had to refer to different resources .
By Manoj K
•Prefer if more examples could be worked out in a whiteboard with interaction questions to solve the answers based on session progress.

•Difficult to understand the lecturers English but otherwise insightful when reading each video.
By Shahrukh S
•the pronunciation of the lecturer was at times very difficult to understand !
By Melida G J
•I think the course could be better, some of the lessons were really basic.
By Chris T
•The main instructor lacks enthusiasm. Very boring lectures.
By Ander C
•Good overall, although concepts are high-school level.
By Khayala J
•Very interesting but at the same time very easy one.
By Ahmed M R
•needs more examples rather than narration.
By Johnrey L P
•Good!
By Oliver O
•This was painful. The videos were so terrible in explanation, clarity, and relevance that I ended up going to YouTube to watch the topics, and other websites to read the content relevant to the subjects. This must be improved.
By Brandon R
•I can't think of a worse way to instruct mathematics. If I had just received the transcripts in an email and taken the quizzes I would have gotten as much out of this course. Extremely disappointing.
By Eric P
•Not a good course. Very high level and I was able to pass only because I have taken most of this content in the past. For the other content, I had to look elsewhere for information.
By Anthony V d V
•I found the material already difficult to grasp in the video's and the quality of English of the presenters did not help.
By Alice T
•não se explica matematica falando. e sim dando exemplos.
By Nimish B
•very basic

•It was painful to work through the videos at first place, for more than one reasons. Very linmited (I would say insufficient) and inconsistent use of background data (diagrams, equations, symbols,pointers) on the board to support what was been talked about. It felt like a plain reading of mathematical expressions and descriptions. As a consequence I had to completely rely on the www to learn the topics covered so I could do the exercises. If that is how the standard of tutoring is to unfold for UoL Global MBA program (to which this is a foundation), I would seriously reconsider my decision to go for. I have been into a MOOC UCL and regret to say this course (Quantitative Foundations for International Business) is a big disappointment. Hope someone listens and th

•this course should be titled 'mathematical foundations for international business' since too complicated to validate to another institution once completed: the name isn't descriptive enough as it is now: please find a way to better expose the mathematical concepts: letting a doctoral student reading cards behind the camera (even being super kind) does not help that much: see how KhanAcademy does with such processes, using screencast underscoring the equations, formulations, stat', etc. Way easier to understand from their platform.......finally, what a shame discovering that the course isn't given by the King's College prof himself, but entirely delegated to his doc' student. cheap experience
