Hello Kristin

Thank you for teaching me the basics of academic writing and editing with proper grammar. In this course, I was introduced to the scientific panel which further enriched my knowledge.

In the middle of the course, I realised that I am not interested in this programme. And I do not want to spet my time on it.

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.
