It was quite an interesting journey for me while on this course. It is my first course on Coursera and it caught my fancy. I learned a lot about MS Excel during the course of the program and I believe that I am better positioned to work with the package.

Es un curso útil para gente que se inicia en el manejo de Excel, pero es cierto también que alguien con cierto nivel de excel lo puede superar con facilidad y no aprender demasiados contenidos nuevos respecto al tiempo que implica abordar el curso.

Como el curso está hecho originalmente en inglés al momento de traducir en los quices cambia el orden de las palabras y esto puede generar un error involuntario, agradezco que hagan una versión de los exámenes en español y no solo traduzcan.

This is a good course if you are data science student and are using excel to analyze and clean you data. I would recommend this to beginners too, if they wish to explore excel. There can be improvements and advancements in learning though.

El curso brinda una buena información e introducción a los datos, seria bueno que al momento de hacer la traducción se fijaran en las formulas, que estas quedaran en español para los que tenemos Excel en español.

Really nice reminder of basic tools in Excel, however it was a little bit distracting to see both Excel screen and the Tutor's face at the same time - full screen of Excel would be much easier to focus on.

La traduccion del ingles al español cambia el contexto de los textos de funciones, al igual que las preguntas de los cuestionarios generando confusion y perdida de puntos

Good coverage but not as much in depth as it needs to be in defining functions/formulas and how they work and to use them. More examples and practice.

I think the course also needs to include pivot tables, macros and data visualization (creating a dashboard) using excel.
