Good course well conducted and Jean should be congratulated for her input. Good interaction from some members of the course, plenty to discuss and do. Excellent!

The course was professionally presented and I enjoyed it immensely. There were a few down-loading problems & several sites unavailable. Some of the European sites were not relevant to Australia, but I guess this would be the same problem for any participants in the course. It was an 'easy to read' course and therefore highly acceptable.

Design in Your Life, which I found extremely interesting with lots of interaction from students and the tutor from many different countries.

These online courses are a great way to learn. I am \\time poor\\ with two school children to raise and self-paced is ideal for me.

I learnt a lot of interesting facts about the development of English and also about Creoles (which I didn\\'t previously know about).

I have just finished reading through Unit 10, and I want to thank you for a great course. I have learnt heaps of interesting facts, and a lot of things I always wondered about the English language now make sense. Thanks again and best regards for the future.

I found the course most interesting, and being self regulating, was undemanding as befits someone heading towards senility? I had studied some of the topics some 50 years ago but much of the information was new. For example, for the first time I feel more confident in coping with the phonetic alphabet.

I would like to say how much I enjoyed the course. It was both interesting and informative. Peter Rose always replies to posts on the Discussion Forum. I am torn between the Shakespeare or Romans courses now. Thank you.

I am lucky at present to have the time for courses from home and have computer. I am computer literate and find internet courses useful so that I don\\'t have to catch buses, trains, walk up steep stairs or drive in unfamiliar places. I\\'m not isolated as such and it is convenient. I learned quite a lot with this course, especially about creoles, pidgin and development of languages - I was not aware of creoles in Australia. It is a very good course and Peter Rose is a good support with comments on Discussion Board.

It was an excellent and enlightening course. I found it readable, understandable and enjoyed the fact that Peter Rose was so quick in his responses to Discussion Board comments.

I found the course really interesting. I had studied Latin and Phonetics at High School long ago and I can speak New Guinea Pidgin so I found the course easy reading. It was great to read how the language evolved, adapted and is still changing. It was also a good revision for me of grammar, and Syntax.

I was disappointed that I was the only student doing the course - having other students involved in discussion would have been great. I am not at all socially isolated, however I have a medical condition which is exacerbated by cold weather, so on-learning learning at home is a great winter activity.

I really enjoyed the course. The lecture notes covered the development of English over a long time span, and also across many colonial and other countries. There were good links to websites for further exploration of topics of interest. Peter’s comments on my responses were always encouraging.

I learned correct spelling and word order in English sentence, these were the most important for me. I found all seven units very helpful. I live alone in a nice little house with small garden and I enjoy spending time over there. I have nice neighbours and we talk often to each other. My son comes to visit me onece a week and I go to the Hungarian Club every Friday. I spent a lot of time with my computer since I did this course so I don\\'t feel isolated and beside all this happenings, I read as well.
