It would be great if the assignments are graded by professors.

Although the course is aimed at Chinese translations, the professor manages to bridge that gap by introducing translation techniques that anyone can use.

the issue with this peer graded course is that it's quite annoying to wait for grading,and the forum comments in the discussion are usually posted by others thoughtlessly, which makes the discussion points pointless to read because they aren't moderated. The assignments are pretty intense, actually, so actually requires quite a hgh level of proficiency in English and Chinese. Otherwise the course theories and techniques are well designed and a lot of effort is put into it. if one is already proficient in both English and Chinese, then it is a very good course if one puts in the efort

The courses are curated with planned introductions for each unit and sections, and Ms.Yao tries very hard to complement it with related examples and practices,.

However, it can be better to expand the scope and the diversity of practice modules by adding some political, socioeconomic or entertainment & cultural materials to them.

The course is great with many materials, especially the examples, they are easy to understand. I learned so much from the course. I also speak Chinese, so the course is appropriate for me, but I think with people who don't speak Chinese, it will be a little hard to understand all the examples.

Good course for beginners, but I have to note that it is for English-Chinese translators only. You can learn from it and benefit from reviewing other students' work. However, it won't help you that much if you want to translate into a different language.

Good video content to get a basic idea of what translating is about. Though I can't really fault a free course for it, it is unfortunate that for a non-Chinese speaker a lot of the nuance and meaning is actually 'lost in translation'.

Useful knowledge however, it would be better if chinese was mentioned in the title of the course. It is misleading. I would not have chosen this course if it was mentioned in the title for I do not speak chinese.

Chinese English translation is not the only one I wish., but I wish they would teach me to translate by paraphrasing English words instead. other than that, it's a good course.

In the syllabus of the course is not clear that the focus is Chinese-English translation, I think this information could be more clear before signing up for the course.
