"Stating that this course is for beginners is simply misleading.  The discussion question for the second week is \"What is your favorite interval?\".  First of all, as a beginner, I just learned what an interval was (and even that information is presented as if you have knowledge that a beginner simply wouldn't), and without being able to recognize notes by ear (which a beginner certainly couldn't do, or at least this one can't) how would I have any idea how to answer this question?\nWhile some of this content is presented in a very basic manner that a beginner can grasp and use to build upon, by the time I got into intervals in the second week, I was simply lost, even after going through the entire first part of the second week again.\nPerhaps I'm simply not musically-minded enough for this course, but this level of content and method of instruction seems well beyond what a beginner course should offer.  And unfortunately, it's past my 14-day refund period with Coursera, so I'm out the certificate fee."
