Too bad that the timing to do the exercises and assessments are unrealistic. Also, if some topics are heavily emphasized in tests, there should be at least an equivalent amount of time to explain how to solve them.

A brilliant introduction to Linear Algebra. This is an excellent course. My objective for doing the course was to refresh my knowledge of Linear Algebra as I completed my mathematics degree almost 30 years ago! I had completed the sister course entitled: Introduction to Calculus and so I thought I'd follow-on with this one. A few hopefully helpful observations: 1. The course was the right level of difficulty for me and was quite challenging in parts e.g. the section on modulo arithmetic. 2. The videos are superb - the description of Markov processes was a particular highlight. 3. The recommended timings were not accurate but this could be a reflection of my own (lack of) ability. I probably took double the recommended timing but this wasn't a particular concern. It's good to invest the time to really understand and be able to visualise the concepts. 4. I found it really helpful to have done the Introduction to Calculus course beforehand. The Linear Algebra course is much harder and at the very least, one needs to have some knowledge of basic trig to be able to understand some of the concepts. In summary, an excellent course. Brilliantly explained and a good challenge to complete.

From my perspective, as someone interested in the subject but without prior exposure, this course has been both challenging and incredibly rewarding. Professor Easdown excels in teaching and adeptly presents the materials, covering linear algebra from both geometric and arithmetic perspectives, as well as its applications. I strongly recommend treating the readings as required rather than optional, as they provide many examples of problems you would come across in the exercises. In terms of support, it's rare to find another course where the instructor is as responsive to students' questions as this one. Many MOOCs often leave you feeling isolated, navigating through materials alone. However, in both this course and the Intro to Calculus class I previously took with Professor Easdown, he consistently engages with students' queries in the discussion forums. His dedication makes this course as close to a traditional classroom experience as you can get online.

Professor Easdown has an obvious passion for mathematics and it shows. I truly enjoyed every single one of his courses. It is rare to find a professor who can make advanced mathematics so accessible and easy for the student to understand. Each lesson really builds on the next in a logical progression, and the course structure is simple and straightforward. I used these courses to help review my undergraduate mathematics before starting graduate school and found them incredibly helpful.

This was a very detailed course, and took me longer than any other EVER - not because it was difficult, but so detailed and SOOOO many mandatory quiz questions. The advanced Calculus course is similar in style and workload.

Intro concepts for linear algebra taught well, but I found the modular arithmetic topics out of place for something like an intro course. The last section has applications too which is nice.
