About the Course

Very clear and articulate explanation of the concepts. He doesn't skip a step in the sequencing ideas, drawing comparisons and differences, and illustrating both visually and story-telling. Excellent.
Very nice course for beginner, the mathematic level is not high (around french baccalaureat) so available to everyone. I enjoyed a lot this course that show how simple math can be used in real life.

•General description of the modeling, need further work or pre-understandings for some of the contents.
By Johnny V
•Felt a little rudimentary until the last week. I hope the specialization picks up after this point.
By Michael S
•Not enough about formulas or real world application. Was hoping to see examples applied in Excel.
By Sidney A
•Nice primer for modeling, but wish there were more workable problems to help hit the point home.
By Bharat J
•Too descriptive for a quantitative course. Would've preferred more problem solving exercises.
By Eike A H
•-no explanation on errors
-too theoretical and abstract with lack of examples and own practice
By Siva S B
•Could have been more advanced from the perspective of practical use-cases of data modeling.
