I thoroughly enjoyed this course! Very easy to understand, and I especially liked the fact that I could enjoy it at my own pace. The advice to do another activity to keep oneself lightly distracted while learning worked very well for me! I have personally done two different MTPE projects on Smartcat, but I had not received any formal training for this skill. Thank you for offering me this opportunity to take this course!
