(Original )Information
What do you like best about FutureLearn?

All the courses are conducted by globally renowned universities and the topics are also based on the important subjects on-demand at present. The teaching is done by articles, videos, quizzes, etc. The moderators also encourage the learners to type out their opinions in the comment section at the end of each chapter and share/engage with the other learners. Sometimes the moderators also reply and interact with the students, which creates a healthy learning environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FutureLearn?

All the courses are not free and payment is needed. The free courses are not accessible after 4 weeks, so one cannot study those at their own pace. Moreover, any Certificates of Achievement/Completion are also not provided for the free courses, which is a huge drawback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FutureLearn solving and how is that benefiting you?

Apart from the problems mentioned in the last section, I did not face any other issues. I have completed 4 courses with them. The benefits of completing the courses are really nice as it enlightens us on various new topics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about FutureLearn?

FutureLearn provides a great way to expand my knowledge and I have already completed more than 5 courses here. All the courses are of high quality and it didn’t cost me anything to learn as it is free to use. All the videos are pretty straightforward and easy to understand with the use of helpful graphics.

The courses are designed in such a way that they don’t take much time to complete and you can pick the best university to choose from for the courses. The user interface is very simple to navigate and you can easily find the course you are looking for in less than 2 minutes. It is very helpful in expanding your knowledge for a job change or higher studies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FutureLearn?

The only thing I like dislike about it is that it has very less courses for the technical programs like Digital marketing, Programming, Wordpress, and more. I mainly use these thing in my job and I need more of these courses to be uploaded on the platform. Apart from that, it is overall a very good platform for learning new courses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering FutureLearn:

FutureLearn is an England based company and most of the top universities are partnered with it, so definitely you can try it to increase your skills. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FutureLearn solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is very beneficial for me to improve my job skills by learning new trends and keeping my knowledge up to date about my interests. Also, it provides certificates when I pass the courses which are very useful for me. I have learnt a lot in the field of Data Science recently using FutureLearn courses.

What do you like best about FutureLearn?

there are tons of courses available from which you can select the ones that interest you the most, the courses are categorised so its very easy to find what you're looking for. the support team is really great, you got a small support button in the dashboard from which you can contact support, they respond really quickly to the queries. many courses available there are free of charge so you could just jump in and learn the course, well other courses got a fixed fee to be paid to enrol. the dashboard is really beautiful with a color combination of pink and white gives a treat to the eyes. the chapters in the courses are available as articles and videos so its very easy to follow. the structure of courses are really neat with portions arranged to be learned on a weekly basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FutureLearn?

for many courses, you can't just jump into the course like other services out there, there is a date from which the classes will star, so you have to wait till then. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

first of all there are lots of free courses available for you to start learning from, this also gives you an idea of what you're buying if you're interested in premium courses, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FutureLearn solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you like best about FutureLearn?

I think that this software offers some of the best courses to learn online and excel in a particular skill with minimum fees or no fees. There are good courses for Languages, especially that I loved the most. So, detailed and in easy language. Some of the other courses for Business, Tech, and others have also attracted me and I like new additions also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about FutureLearn?

I think there are least courses for digital marketing, Wordpress platform, blogging, Productivity tools courses that can help to master such skills. If these courses are added I think people will not like to leave this software anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering FutureLearn:

These courses are short but really conceptual that is what I like and recommend to try once and see for yourself. The courses offered here are sure to help and keep you boosting in your career. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is FutureLearn solving and how is that benefiting you?

I benefitted after learning the language courses which helped me to implement in day to day life so easily. They have helped me to understand the subject as it should be understood. They have good system to keep track of our progress and find out where are we lacking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
