The explanation was crystal clear, and step by step information given just great

By Scott Novak on 11/7/2020

I like her corny jokes----keeps it interesting.

By Malayaj Srivastava on 11/7/2020

I am a beginner in R, and this course gave a crisp understanding and a sound introduction to R

By Somnath Bera on 11/7/2020

It will be better to show the example screens with zoom in rather than highlighters. It gets difficult to follow.

By Dean Layman on 10/26/2020

I have loved the first half of the course. It is a great intro to R. I used the S programing language back in the 1980s when I worked for the Bell System. I understand that R is like a follow-on language. I am glad to be learning this again.

By Hossameldin MKML Abdelrahman on 10/18/2020

All the session are so informative and give different ways to perform the same task. However, more time is needed to fellow or at least provide each lesson R script. I enjoyed it !

By Dhanaji Parshuram Ghorpade on 10/17/2020

Easy to understand language but found too much stress on Basics. Should focus more on Statistics and Data Science as topic suggested

By Christian Dimitri Lecorps on 10/6/2020

it is a very good match! Only hope I could have the answers of the erxercises to see if I have the right results or not

By Ilir Sheraj on 10/3/2020

I would say that this is the best R course i've seen so far. I took courses on R from EDX and Coursera which are very deep and detailed and give you a headache, but here Simona has done a great job in putting a lot of emphasis into the practical side. I am enjoying it a lot and the way she explains keeps me glued after a long day of work. I have experience in R so for the beginners, doing the exercises would help a lot, think a bit before looking at the answers and don't skip them. Great work!

By Silvia Convento on 9/23/2020

I highly recommend this course. It is one of the best I have ever attended. Lessons are clear, easy to follow and exercises are very useful. It is very comprehensive and addresses many of the basics of a programming language that you usually have to figure out on your own (or even worse, you end up never understanding how to do). I feel like it gave me a solid foundational knowledge of R and saved me a lot of time!
Finally, I feel now I have the tools I need to continue exploring and applying more advanced statistical methods to my datasets in R. This was really great, thanks!

By Fausto Felix Lopez on 9/21/2020

Me gusta mucho la forma en que explica

By Calvin Clarke on 9/19/2020

The instructor for this programme, is extremely enthusiastic, and explains things in laymen terms...the best training I have had so far across some of the course's I have subscribed to.
