I am sorry to point this out but this is course is my most frustrating Coursera expierience until now. The content is quite high level and requires a quite solid mathematical background. Unfortunately the lecturer's language and presentation capabilities are so poor that I found it really hard and sometimes impossible to follow the content.

Atrocious experience with the answers parser in the mandatory quizzes.

Informative but approach employed to teach material was somewhat abstract.

very poor presentation

good course and lecturer.

it is nightmarish that there are no more his courses currently.I'll be waiting for his new courses.

good contents.

but somewhat challenging(especially for last programming assignment)

good peers(hints from forum is not a direct answer but very useful)

A really good course for refreshing basic math and understanding the reason why Gradient Descent is used

Good introduction, effective as a refresher.

Many of the subjects were not presented as clear as some of the subjects, in other courses for the same specialization

I found out the material is good but unfortunately the instructor often gives really bad explanation which bring me to somewhat lost during the course. But this course covers essential calculus that people need

its very hard to follow his lectures as well as his writeups and also its very difficult to understand his way of teaching and language.

Professor is almost inarticulate and the initial class reeks of hucksterism.
