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.

The course is very much on soft skills. I anticipate to see more real-world examples and videos of higher quality instead of just instructors talking to the camera.

I learned some interesting things like what type of questions could be asked, how to effectively communicate with stakeholders but the course was very theoretical.

This course provide some excellent video, for example, structure thinking, how to ask proper questions, etc. However, some courses are basic level, like Excel..

I would love more practice problems and examples with spreadsheets. Questions helped me evaluate if I was actually retaining information. More practice problems.

I felt this 2nd course a little bit slow and repetitive. Probably it was because I have make it with previous knowledge and through the course I get unfocussed.

Los cursos son importantes pero muy muy básicos, si sabes de excell o tablas de datos, no te lo recomiendo. Unicamente para personas nuevas en estos temas

Same feedback as the first. A bit too long and too foundational. I tried to move through this one faster but had trouble with the quiz for module 2.

I found the videos to contain too much general knoweledge like communication skills, etc. would prefer it to skip that as it seems self-explanatory

I feel like the content and what they were trying to teach was a bit all over the place. The order of information doesn't make sense all the time.

An okay course but quite a bit of redundant information. Issues around communication need to be better embedded within data analysis contexts.

this course unlike the primary one tried to cover a lot of information in a short amount of time without spending enough time for each section

Way too basic. It can be shortened into a two weeks course and be a lil less repetitive. Still worth going through tho and Ximena is great.

I feel like most of the information was common sense and generally applicable to any working environment. Very basic use of spreadsheets.

I don't know why are they dragging this? I'm loosing interest.

Nothing that's going to help build technical knowledge in this course.

Very basic. I think this one is for beginners who don't know or needs refreshing on how to use spreadsheets, formulas and functions.

Too basic, Expected to learn a lot of Excel but I didn't, Except for a few links. Could have been much much more informative.

Very basic and some pointless/inefficient quizzes/excercises. Interesting content but really only needs one 5-10 min video
