I am and have been a subscriber to The Great Courses for several years. The courses that I have an interest in are related to neuroscience and neuroeducation. The presenters are well known to their individual fields of study. The material is informative to tyros and pros. I use the courses as an excellent review as well as keeping me current with research and trends in neuroeducation.
Talking Professor

I have purchased three courses and have enjoyed the information presented. However, from now on I will purchase the audio only. The DVDs and streaming videos are visually dull—just a talking head with an occasional photo or piece of art. Nonetheless, I will buy more courses.
App flexibility

Course material is good. I would like to have the ability to change speed like I can with My Craftsy classes. Would like to be able to bookmark places to return to later. The written material is not as easy to search or scroll through as Inwould like. It would be helpful to to to a chapter by touching the table of contents instead of scrolling.
Wonderful Courses, Great Teachers .....

From Philosophy to History, Quantum Mechanics and outer space, and the fields of Socio-economics, as well as geo-politics; courses from this institution have greatly enhanced my knowledge of the inner-workings of the changing world we live in today. As the Weeping Philosopher, Heraclitus, so aptly stated “no man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river and he is not the same man.” Over the course of the past couple of decades, I have learned more from the various courses offered in different fields by this company than any other period in my life, including 6 years in the field of sciences and engineering. Thank you
Great app

I wish i could get all of my podcasts working as smoothly as this Great Courses app. Well done- makes listening a breeze.
Update please

TGC stand on there own, and their customer service is the bench mark for how a company should be run. This is why I couldn’t see myself giving less than 4 stars and struggled not to give them five. I have been a customer since the cassette days when you use to mail them a check and wait for the course to arrive. I transitioned to the digital format a few years ago and TTC took very good care of this long time customer by transferring all of my courses over to my digital library. Amazing and I was so appreciative for this service which TTC clearly did not have to do. I do not mind downloading lectures to my pad or phone it works as it should. When driving the pause and play “button” works just fine, I don’t see the issue others are having. If TTC would update this app so you could customize the organization of the library it would be a 5 star app in my opinion. S-lama
Great content, good app — needs CarPlay support

The courses are fantastic (been learning from them for many years!) and the app is making good progress. Most of my listening is in the car — developers, please add CarPlay support. CarPlay would make it both easier and safer to use. Thanks!!
