    Digital Marketing

    Mr. Sambasivam was a fantastic instructor! He always put 110% of his energy into his lessons. If I were to start this course all over again a million times, I would choose Mr. Sambasivam to be my instructor every single time. Truly remarkable!

    Great for beginners

    I thought the course was great. It was brief but informative. For someone unfamiliar with UX and design principles it is a great introduction. Our teacher brought real world experience to the course to help contextualize everything. I do wish we spent more time on practical applications and actually learning the tools however it was still great.

    Great overview of the field

    Overall this was a good overview of the field for me. The content was good and the instructor gave a lot of context and content from real-world examples from his own work in the field. The project was good for practicing many of the things we studied in class. Overall I'd love if the class had a bit more content directly available (even as out-of-class reading, though many references to other books and resources were provided) and more examples or practice time for different techniques i...

    A very personalized learning experience about Product Management

    A great intro to Product Management by industry leaders for people looking to learn or break into PM world. Although a small class it was a great experience. The professors Anthony and Jeff are industry leaders that bring so much experience and knowledge. They’ll push you to think outside the box and guide you through the final project process. I recommend this class for anyone wanting to explore a job in tech or intro to Product.
