Teaches basic Croatian grammar fundamentals but I wouldn't say you learn how to speak the language at all.

It is an okay course but I think it would have been 100x better if it was held in person. It is hard to learn a language fully online and even though the professor gave us tons of written practice you are unable to have conversations with others which I feel really hurts the ability to actually learn. It is easy to get a decent mark (70-85%) in this course with little time commitment weekly.

I took this course online. When I took it, the written assignments were pretty difficult, mostly because there was not much resources to help us know how we were supposed to do things. The assignments where we had to speak were pretty easy. The final exam was very easy. My professor gave us a lot of insight on what to expect from the final exam.

super easy if you have previous background knowledge - online course program needs a good refresh though.

Meh. Boring course. Not very easy unless you know some of the language already.
