This was an amazing and enjoyable course. The material is light and it is just ideal for an Excel begginer. I was able to learn how to operate Excel in the best way possible being a beginner myself. I highly recommend it.

I am so happy that I took this course. The videos and practice quizzes are so easy to follow and for an online course (as opposed to being taught in person) I can't imagine the course being any better. Highly recommended!

Everything is introduced step by step, and the practice videos are very helpful. Practice videos not being long and having a small quiz afterwards help us to learn more effective. Thanks to everyone taking part in this!

This is a wonderful class and what I like most is the tedious class challenge, quiz, and final exam. It is really challenging and extremely effective in implementing all that's been taught for each session of the model.
