The course was well-structured, and the materials were easy to follow. I liked that the course covered a wide range of topics, from the basics of scientific writing to more advanced topics like editing for publication. The instructors were helpful, and the feedback on the assignments was constructive. One thing that I found particularly useful was the section on editing for non-native English speakers - it was really helpful to learn about the common mistakes that non-native speakers make and how to correct them.
