Great course! A solid way to introduce a learner to programming in SQL!! Sadie is an amazing online instructor! Thank you to Sadie and UC Davis for offering this course through the Coursera platform!!

I thought this course was great! Great introduction to Relational Databases and SQLite. Highly reccomend for anyone new to SQL, Databases, or someone looking to get started with a data science career.

Even reading the prompter throughout the course, the instructor has been extremely nervous and unsmooth in reading. This is the biggest downside of the course and eclipses its good sides.

Didn't feel it actually helped me learn because there wasn't any step-by-step instruction. It just was videos w/script and then quizzes and you were expected to know the content.

The instructor is so hard to follow that it made me not want to continue with the entire specialization. Although I really like the challenges and the idea of peer-reviewing.

Slides have many mistakes. I have experience in other languages but even for me, the lecture is far too ambiguous in some parts and way more details in some other parts.

Hi, First of all I don't like peer assignment concepts. second especially in joins videos if you have shown examples with output, little elaborate, will be more useful.

Below expectation for such a high profile university. Luckily my basic background in SQL was enough to get me through the activities because the lectures were poor.

I wish that the instructor used examples that mirrored the type of questions in the coding exams. We did not cover all the material in the coding exam.

The structure and guidance provided on the final assignment was very poor, resulting in far more time required to complete than expected.

Questions were often vauge and videos sometimes did not display the information being talked about. I found several examples confusing.

El tercer modulo deberia estar mejor explicado ya que muchas de las formas de utilizar las sintaxis y los codigos dejan bastantes dudas

too much theory, I needed something more 'pratical' that allowed me to start using and write code and not see a lot of slide with code

1.Very basic course.
2. Assignments level does not match with training level.
3. Need to provide class which includes query writing.

The teacher was not readily available to answer questions. The course was alright but I do not feel prepared to use my skills yet.

Very slow and badly organised start of the course with no to very little practice of how to use SQLite before the coding quiz.

Mistakes in videos, no possibility of asking quetions to the teachers. It uses SQL lite not used in professional enviroments

The first exercises are still ok. But the final exam is really a mess. The questions are not as precise as they should be.

Too much talking in videos with less examples. The exercises were vague and not enough information was given to solve them

The videos had the wrong emphasis, and were far too long.
More time should have been devoted to the exercises/quizzes.

Rather slow-paced and not maintained anymore. You learn only absolute minimum. There is no good practice hints etc.

Not satisfied. There are better MOOCs for SQL/Data Science out there. I wouldn't recommend it for a SQL beginner.

Great information, however, the site that host the datebase for the quizes is outdated and no longer supported.

The course is good in itself, but answers circulate on the internet, making the certificate not very meaningful.

there is a lot of questions about how the questions were asked, i highly recommend you do see the discussions

Not enough examples were shared.
Certain concepts were explained without telling their underlying basics.

Way too theoretical and almost no practice. This course is the same as reading some slides.
