This is a great introduction course. I wanted to let you know that there was an error on the final course quiz. The quiz asks a questions that does not line up with the data set provided, this will confuse a lot of people taking this.

More hands-on activities for SQL would be helpful! For example, a hands-on activity for each reading or one hands-on activity in each module. Self reflections are helpful for reinforcement but another hands-on activity would be nice!

Everything was special, starting from the presenter of the course, and passing through all the people who appeared

It is very important to feel that you are close to these people and reaching what they have achieved is not impossible.
