Its good course but there is 1 problem. There are too many plagiators just cheating through this course. I got probably 1 proper assignment out of 5. Rest was copy-paste from internet.

The course its a great opportunity to start into C programming but I hope the tutorials at week 4, 5 in particular like pointers, arrays being more clearly and competative! beside assignment!

It has a good summary of the essentials topics about C.It might have helped if the text in the videos would be more interactive. Even so, the professor and his classes were good explained.
