This is a great course! I have learned new knowledge that is far beyond my expectation! Highly recommend for young scientists to attend this course to learn basic principles in writing in the science!

Great course. Learned so much that will help me be a better writer and editor, not only in the sciences, but in other areas. A fantastic professor, clear thinking, speaking, writing. an inspiration.

I did really enjoy this course. As someone who already has science publications I have picked up some very small and important details. In the beginning I really enjoyed remaking texts. But. Examples of articles in this course were in sphere, where I do not understand the sense. Biology, certain sciences... I am a historian and for me it was very difficult. Besides, I am Ukrainian and English is not my native language. On one side the course teaches that the science must be understandable on the other - I could not even not understand the course parts. It was very disappointing. This is my feed back. Thank you for your work.
