Are you bored of lengthy, feature-based product training? Do you believe that learning something new should be exciting and fun? I do! That's why I left my career at Microsoft to create a new type of learning experience where the focus is on the value - not the features. I'm passionate about technology and storytelling, and I thrive to share my experiences of how technology can effectively be used to work smarter - in a more engaging way. I'm the founder of two companies - Business Productivity and Storyals, the mother of three, Swedish and live in Dubai.

Information provided was very useful but it was too fast to be able to follow along.
By Anonymized User on 8/5/2020
Good course, plenty of examples and highlighting the new features in 2013 that I was unaware of or their functionality.
By Evelyn Valdez on 6/29/2020
I can't open the resources for this section.
By Juanita Withrow on 5/18/2020
The pace is very good. Short quizzes, and I pause the video & practice the techniques frequently. She is giving me a deeper understanding of the excel templates I use for work. Great Course and instructor.
By Aleli Tirados on 5/14/2020
Interesting course. Hopefully I'll be able to apply what I learned here in my line of work. Most of the examples used here are related to finance. However, some of the functions might be quite useful for me.

I like the simple explanations and screens. But the sound is a distracting; the sound is like listening to someone who is in a tunnel or empty room
By Anonymized User on 11/21/2017
very informative and explained very well however it was done to fast to follow along for someone new to Excel. Much of the information was more than I would ever use but interesting to see.
By Mubashir Sheikh on 7/10/2017
Amazing and to the point explanations; Instructor knows her stuff and is makes it easy to relate to practical life effortlessly (showing how much effort she must have put behind the scene). Highly Recommended!
By Carlton Seymour on 4/12/2017
This is an incredible course that is project oriented. Its clear the author has spent a lot of time and thought in designing this course. The learner gets to learn excel with real life excel use examples.
By Owen Davies on 9/21/2015
In the final quiz, there were several questions that were worded in a way that made two answers applicable. One may have been better but it was not clear which one that would be based on the wording of the questions. The instructor did a great job of staying engaging throughout the videos. It was at a slow enough pace to hear all of her words but not so slow that it was boring. I liked that there was an assumed user level in the excel tutorial as such we didn't have to go over every click to understand what was being described. The content was useful and productive. It was a good introduction to the new features of Excel 2013.
