I have 5 days left until my first Masstercursos degree expires and I'm going to finish the whole thing in that time (I had done most of the reading in Spanish before with a dictionary, but stopped once I hit the videos as I can't understand any spoken Spanish).
I enabled Google Chrome Automatic Captions and it works decently well, there is a huge delay between the speaking and the translation but it works well enough for me to get most of the videos.
Someone told me that the Masstercursos degree isn't impressive. What's impressive is doing the degree in a language I don't speak!

I started Cybersecurity. So far translation has been easy (using DeepL and Perplexity Pro). The only snag is DeepL has a word limit and Perplexity is starting to cut its responses short. Probably going to do the DeepL 30 day trial

Masstercursos replied about my refund. They said since the Black Friday sale is now over, it would be more expensive for me to cancel and reorder than to just keep my order and they strongly advise me to keep my order. I ended up getting an unexpected windfall so will just suck it up and keep my order.
I highly recommend the Deepl 30 day trial for exactly that. Merge all the PDFs together into one file and chuck them all into Deepl.
I'm currently going to take an alternate approach of reading only the sections relevant to each homework assignment.

There are free programs that can create a written transcript of a video, which you can then translate into English.
