The course promised engaging lessons and interactive activities but fell short in delivering depth and variety. Many sections felt superficial, providing only basic information without exploring the cultural significance in detail. The interactive components were limited, making it hard to stay engaged and practice conversational skills. Additionally, the vocabulary presented was too simplistic for advanced learners, leaving me wanting more rigorous content to truly enhance my understanding and appreciation of American holiday traditions.

I found this course frustrating and disappointing. While the concept of exploring U.S. holidays is intriguing, the lessons felt superficial and rushed, lacking depth and meaningful engagement. The interactive activities were often repetitive and failed to spark genuine interest. Additionally, the course glossed over important historical contexts, leaving a shallow understanding of each holiday's significance. Instead of enhancing my confidence and language skills, I left feeling more confused and unenthusiastic about the subject.
