I'm from Egypt, and I was fascinated by the course's coverage of ancient Egyptian textiles and their influence on modern design. The course materials were well-structured and easy to follow, with plenty of examples and case studies. I appreciated the emphasis on practical skills, such as analyzing and dating textiles, which I found really useful. The instructor was knowledgeable and responsive to questions, and the online discussions were lively and informative. One area for improvement could be more focus on contemporary textile issues, such as sustainability and social responsibility. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others interested in textile history and culture.
