    • This is online course. Search Edx online courses in google and then you can have these courses there free of cost but without certification. Certificate is paid.

    • You should start speaking with people whose native language is English. Alternatively, you can practice it with friends who have a better command of the English language than you.

  • Those who want to apply, these courses don’t provide a degree, you can watch them at CS50(Youtube channel).
    But if you still want a certificate, goto edx.com and search for CS50, there you can enroll in the course and get a certificate if you want(but it is paid.. certificate only is paid).
