I leave this rating because I like this course

By Steve Gunn

Person recording the video had his mouth too close to the microphone. Can hear breathing in between words and sentences. Other than that it is great.

By Anonymized User

I recommend this course to someone who needs to work with MS Excel. Some subjects are too long (more than 15 minutes). In my opinion, each subject should not longer than 10 minutes to be more effectively.
