I just finished the 2nd Course in the Google Data Analyst course - even though I have experience in the field, this course reminded of areas that I should focus on and work to strengthen my skills in.

The Skill of asking the right questions is usually very underrated and many people just overlook it. That's why I'm appreciative of google for teaching this core skill and making it super interesting.

Very easy to understand, but somewhat low-level. They walk you through everything in detail, which can be great sometimes and feel like a waste of time at others. Looking forward to the rest of the courses.

It initially felt like the course covered a lot of unreleated topics.

I did come to the realization they are all related in a more abstract level, but it was near the end of the course when I realized this

I am really enjoying these courses. I believe the weakest part of the course is the discussion forum. The forum is not engaging: It just seems forced and I have decided to not bother with it from now on.

Lots and lots of things to do here. Awesome course despite having 2 surgeries and our craziest season at work - made it! Hang in there it's worth the climb, the last part is all downhill and a great ride.

Course provides additional technical information and exposure to tools and theories. Some of the content would better fit in the share/act course but as this is still an initial program course it's works.

Week 4 is a little boring. There can be more activities to make it more interactive and more examples for seeing to put the knowledge to work. Week 1-3 are super informative and greatly planned. Thank you

It was pretty good because it shows all the basics about how to ask effective questions and make decision. But i just dont like the way she talks, her tone was boring and she was not passionate about it.

The part of this course that was most valuable and enjoyable was the section devoted to spreadsheets. I really took away some great tips! The course was well structured and content very well organized.

Overall I learned a lot. I was familiar with some things but most of the material is new to me. In an applicable context. We use data analysis for everything we do but now I'll be using it consciously.

Great course! The final challenge is really good. 4 stars just because the spreadsheet section was too basic, I mean it is good for someone complete new but I did'nt see many challenges in that section

It is an excellent course, but the only problem is there needs to be a point noted for each video, like the first course. Without point notes finding the crucial talks in each video becomes hard.

Good level of practical activities with the Google Sheets errors task and the course challenge - but still a little basic with few opportunities to see formulas/functions in action or to use SQL.

I feel like this course was rather lackluster and only reinforces basics that most professionals and/or fresh graduates are already aware of. Regardless, it was a good refresher and quick paced.

The instructor was not as engaging as Tony was. It was not bad! It's just that Tony set the bar way too high I guess. And that's okay because he was one of the best instructors I have ever had.

Spreadsheets were not a new concept to me and slowed my learning.

Communication tips were helpful although not a new concept for me.

Presenter was engaging.

Quizzes good way to test knowledge.

Good stuff and it was a nice way to get some intro Excel skills. I am not as much a fan of the scripted sound of the instructor, but I understand that may be a best practice for MOOCs. Thanks!

I loved this course! This course addresses my weakest area of expertise. I really enjoyed the deep dives into these skills. I am looking forward to learning more and increasing my skillset.

The course is pretty detailed and focuses on real world working scenarios and forces one to think practically. I just felt the necessity of more technical tasks and everything else was good.
