Introduction to Psychology leads the participant to understand human behaviour and the reasons why people behave the way they do. It also opens a window to a better understanding by suggesting interesting readings which can give us a broad sense of how psychologist work.

I just wanted to do a basic psychology course to learn about how the brain works and some mental disorders/illnesses to understand my loved ones going through this. This course was just what I expected. It was short and sweet and to the point!

Thank you, Professor Bloom!

This course has been the most exciting and engaging academic experience I've had. From the Professor's ability to explain in-depth concepts with simple words, to the engaging animation and lecture format, to the relevant topics, the course exceeded all my expectations.

An overview of previous research on a topic that critically evaluates, classifies, and compares what has already been published on a particular topic. It forms the foundation for the author's subsequent research and justifies the significance of the new investigation.

A very important course which did not only widened my horizon regarding my studies and knowledge but also helped me understand myself and others. I am seriously considering a course on Industrial occupational psychology with my background in Human resource management.

Great introductory course, giving bits of information on the various aspects of psychology. It helped me refresh what I had learned some time back and kept my attention across the six weeks. The additional readings & referred books are very interesting & helpful also.

To my mind, the course was great! I've learnt a lof of new things and managed to aquire basic skills about psychology. Our mentor Paul was brilliant and engaging. Right now i feel extremely motivated and have a desire to continue my tuition. Thank you and good luck!)

This was a great class. It was informative, the pace was amazing and I learnt a whole lot. It was amazing how after weeks of studying heavy topics and concepts, the last module was designed around happiness and positivity. There was a lot to takeaway from this course!

I enjoyed the course so much! All the topics were very interesting and what is the most important, everything was explained very accessibly, so anyone could understand! I also loved the animation and Paul`s voice, very pleasant to watch and listen :)) Thank you a lot!
