Really enjoyed this course. It was very well taught and I particularly liked the way that it was done within a classroom setting, rather than just the lecturer talking to camera. I also learnt a lot

One of the best online courses I have ever taken. The instructor too is really nice and the way she conducted the course was engaging as if I am in a classroom with her

This course is very helpful for basic knowledge of vital signs, especially for non-medical people who need this information, like circuit engineer or business managers

This was a wonderful review. I felt like I was right back in the classroom. I wish I would have had an instructor like Dr. Scanga when I went through nursing school.

Technically well done. Course is for beginners - if you read anything about human body and how it works, then this probably isn't for you ;) Quizzes are enjoyable.
