You can adjust the language of your Coursera account in your account settings. This affects text on your homepage and system text in courses you take. Course content will always appear in the language that it was written.

Note: Some courses are fully translated into multiple languages and we support translated subtitles on course videos. Guided Projects are only available in the language they were created in and aren’t subtitled.
