Very good teaching of fundamentals. Everything was explained in a really structured manner. Final assessment was like cherry on the cake as it helped in revisiting what has been taught over the weeks.

Really well done! You kept me interested and motivated, and that's not easy to do!

I enjoyed the balance of instructional videos and hands-on exercises, and I'm excited to try the Intermediate now.

Very good for the Foundation of Spreadsheet (Excel). The most important week was Week 1 to me because in self-learning, there were many gaps and that were covered rigorously.
