I think the peer review part of the final assignments should be reconsidered and solved. Some of the peers uploaded blank pages to see other peer's assignments and then they copied some parts and prepared their essays accordingly. This was bad and against the honour code. I have personally seen that a part of my essay was copied word by word by another peer, and wrote him it is unacceptable.

You can solve this by cancelling the resubmission option once it is downloaded.

In general meaning, I am very happy about the course content and the instructor. His method is very productive and supportive. The course gave me confidence. Thank you very much.

Hello,

1. A useful and pleasant introduction to the systematic approach to wine tasting and pairing wine with food.

2. Professor John Buechsenstein is delightful.

3. The chapter on defects deserves to be expanded.

4. The instructions for drafting and sending the final project could be clearer. For example:

- the need to include both wines in the same file or the possibility to upload several files.

- how to evaluate if the chosen wine is not on the list of the 3 proposed wines.

- The exact content of the report. Many things about what is scored are found out only after the report is sent and the evaluation of others is tried.

Thank you very much.

The course is nice and has a good time line for a beginner course. May be we cut implement some live sessions so that we can ask questions in real time, specialy when it comes to tasting & learning assignments. But on the end the course is well done prepaired and i will definitely recommend this Course. Thanks a lot.

John Buechsenstein is superb. Unfortunately the peer assignment rating procedure is a nightmare and should be rethink-ed and restructured. Not all the students are able to do their job well and can be frustrating for a serious learner.

I really enjoyed taking this course. Very engaging and learned a lot. I would have given this course 5 stars but the grading system for the final takes a while and I think is lazy. Otherwise, I would recommended it.

Impressive, one learns a great deal about tasting techniques but also the basics of grape and wine variations. I just wish I had a better for detecting the aromas!

practices and simple exercises to refine the sensitivity of the nose to easily analyze a wine

Great course but how can I get the certificate? Please email at [email protected]

Yes the course is excellent. Learnt more about sensory analysis of different wines

I enjoyed the course. The instructor was very good. Wine tasting was fun!

POOR FEEDBACK

As an auditor this class was a disappointment. I was sorry that the first quiz couldn't be graded, but very disappointed that the rest of the class could only be viewed if I enrolled. I enjoyed the instructor, and found him very informative and warm.

slow, not enough information, again mostly slow content and long videos with little useful info, for example I can ge 5 min of reading more from Wikipedia

The instructor could have showed us how to snif or sip wine for example instead of just talking and explaining verbally and posting illustrative pictures.

The videos tend to be boring since we have to listen and imagine what the instructor is talking about instead of watching a real demonstration.

Interesting information, but it was quite stuffy. I also disliked that the primary method of instruction was slides with voiceover.

One cant figure where to download the pdf of tasting grid from

The type, quantity and quality of wines and glases to be purchased ought to be mentioned at the begining of the course- especially in the times of this pandemic. Im stuck waiting for online orders to come through bwith a 5th April deadline looming over my head

I cannot seem to get any chatline or direct access to get answers to my queries about anything

I tried to change my emial id since the earlier one had problems, and I havent got a mail on [email protected] for verification. My earlier mail was [email protected]

Course material was ok.. the peer assessed grading is flawed.

Necesito mi certificado puesto que tengo el curso finalizado

I didn't got the certificate.
