I want to submit my first assignment. But the coursera says he will be under maintaince.  Whenever I want to write something in my assignment it will shows that they are under maintaince. Unfortunately I will unenrol the course. I loss it. Even when I want to review, it dose not work. While typing the feedback the words do not sit properly and the cursor is not working. If this  happens continuously then I have to delt my account from the platform. Thank you for all.

I resolved each of the questions in my writing, they are there very clearly, I am not planning to make a new one, review objectively what should be answered. Therefore, if this is not taken into account, I will give a very bad score to your classification system.

Al ser gratuito el curso y dedicandole tantas horas de estudio al realizrlo no dan siquiera un comprobante de haberlo realizado con exito. Es muy frustrante y una verguenza que solo les interese el dinero.

Why canÂŽt I get that Completion Statement? Will I need to pay for the courses, against the initial basic purpose of Coursera?

It is more relevant to graduates or no interview experience beginners. Not much help on discovering self talents or goals.
