It was an insightful course giving me a lot of background for data before I start learning about different phases of data analysis.

Also, I enjoyed the bit size introductions to different aspects of data analyst work life through employees of Google and other companies.

I really enjoyed it. The course design is extremely professional and very user friendly. Thanks! The only little critique I have is that some of the content is explained very or maybe even too detailed - on the other hand it's very good to address all experience levels.

I think this course is quite a complete one to clear the idea of Data Analytics, what it is and how it is done through different processes and what we need to achieve in the end. A lot of things that I have learned from this course, can't explain in two or three lines.

I love this foundation course, it gives detailed information, great examples, excellent and clear lectures. It teaches you from scratch, takes you step by step to understand materials, and then tests you to anchor the learning and understanding of the topic.

Great job!

This helps me better understand the difference of Data Science and Data Analysis. As well as Knowing more the importance of data in our everyday life. We might be not aware that we're analyzing data already from day to day task but it's what data is doing in our life.

Fairly well organized.

Engaging. Encouraging.

Good questions to test knowledge.

Lots of repetition.

Readings were a bit much and a little too much link out to extra resources that could have been perceived as overwhelming (e..g links to external videos, readings etc)
