As a total beginner in this field, I feel like I couldn't follow entirely with all the terms. I recommend adding to course information which courses are recommended to follow before this one. Furthermore, the location of the exam within the course should be changed, as already suggested in the comments. Lastly, I wasn't fan of how the videos had various styles instead of sticking to one style, and the last video also repeats information that was taught in an earlier video. It would be good to pay attention to this sort of things when making changes to courses. Overall, I did learn a lot of new things in Excel. I could follow it relatively well considering I have no background in this field.

I find the course delivery to be impressively clear and systematic. The deliberate pace of instruction is particularly beneficial for someone like me, who is not a native English speaker and possesses a modest level of English proficiency. The step-by-step approach to learning Excel has made it much more accessible, helping me grasp complex concepts effectively. As I continue with the course, I'm confident that I will acquire a strong foundation in Excel, thanks to this well-structured learning experience.

The course is insightful, educating and interesting. i like the fact that the videos are short and explanatory. straight to the point. it is a good way to learn really catching up fast. the point of a course is to understand and acquire knowledge, i can say for a fact, the videos are doing justice to that. thanks for the avenue.

It is a very good course that is suitable even for people who are not fluent in English. Everything is explained, and it is impossible to make a mistake and get the same result as the presenter. In addition, there is a lot of material to practice and the exams are also a nice way to reinforce what you have learned.

The only problem I find is that the lessons are kind of disconnected, if I learn one thing, then I have to wait a lot lessons apart to know further how it is helpful. The tests also cover stuff we have not learned in the module, it is only in the next module I find what needed to be done in the previous test.
