Time spent per week, let's just say less than what you might think. I read fast, I write fast, and I only spent significant portions of my brain space on high-yield assignments. I'd say 1-2 hours per week per course. I spend WAYYYYYYYY more time here lol.
Wow, 1-2 hours per week per course! You sure are fast!
I have not taken any other online courses so I cannot compare, but I found TESC courses reasonably difficult and rather time consuming. I spent between 10 and 15 hours per week per course. It depends on the course though, all of my courses were accounting, math, and science, it might be different for other subjects.
