How to Search for Courses on Udemy
As at December 2017 there are more than 50,000 online courses available on the Udemy platform, and it’s here that you’ll be introduced to a collection of the most popular courses in certain topics. Of course it doesn’t mean that you’ll necessarily be interested in the default courses that are presented: we’re all looking to learn different skills, and the default courses may not fit your specific interests.
We know that it can be quite overwhelming for students new to this website to find their way through different topics and courses; however, if you’re already a Udemy user you’ll notice that Udemy offers suggestions of more appropriate courses for each student.
So let’s start with simpler ways of finding courses that will deliver the skills we’re looking for. The first method would be to use their Search Feature. Perhaps an easier way might be to browse through their Browse Courses Feature, which has divided the courses into 15 main categories. But we’ll start with the first method, which is to search for specific skills that we’re hoping to learn.
For the purpose of this demonstration we’ll start with a simple one and I’ll enter the word ‘writing’ and see what comes up. When I enter my query – writing – Udemy will show a collection of suggested keywords, suggested courses, and some suggested instructors. So, I'll click on the word ‘writing’ and Udemy will display a search result for writing topics. In the section on the left you’ll see that there are 393 paid courses and 29 free courses available: it also shows that, among these courses, there are seven courses with subtitles that can greatly enrich your learning experience.
