A very structured course to give basic and useful insight to the world of data analysis. From zero, one absorbs the possible levels of details and requirements to get into the world of data analysis.

Everything ok. However, I find these videos based in the experts opinions less instructive and effective than a one teacher planned and previously prepared class. Tnak you

Overall a good course teaching the broad strokes of data analytics.

My only issue is in the videos they pronounce SQL incorrectly. They say S-Q-L when it's pronounced sequel.

Great course overall! Easy to follow, packed with useful information. Can be a bit repetitive and monotone; however, I would still absolutely recommend taking this course.

The course was clear and very much an introduction. My grade for the peer review was a bit unfair as my answers were correct but they did not give me the points I deserved.

Me encantó la parte dónde los profesionales en Data Analysis contaban sus experiencias y consejos. Me gustarían que mejoraran la dinámica de los videos, son muy aburridos.

I really enjoy your course while study, I have just one suggestion that please use normal English in video so who is from non-English background they can easily catch you.

It was a great course for any beginner out there. I was able to get familiar with the basics of data analytics. However, more case studies could give an even better idea.

Como dice el título del curso: es una introducción. En varios lugares los subtítulos de los videos no son del todo exactos. Le faltaría algo de actividad práctica.

Una introducción muy completa en lo que a Análisis de datos se refiere, si bien no se profundiza en temas técnicos, si se otorga una visión general bastante útil.

Not a fan of the peer review. The first time I submitted the assignment, I had all the points/answers laid out in detail but the reviewer still docked points.

Kept losing focus through some videos since it got monotonous at one time I'll also blame my short attention span. Introduce more case studies, they help alot.

Great course, but poor peer review. Grading varies wildly depending on your review, and because of that people copy and paste answers after initial submisison

It was great and I enjoyed it ,but the narrator speaks too fast and the course needs more practices.

But totally it was very useful.

It is a good course as a beginner, but may be a bit too basic for someone who already has experiences in the field. But interesting and useful nonetheless!
