Very well narrated with needed information. Here and there some 30 sec video is repeated. Otherwise a great course to know whether its what we want to do pursue.

Excelent introduction. I like how you need to explore the content to do the last part (pushing into GitHub). Great illustration on how to learn about these tools

The course is smooth and exciting and the lecturers know what they are doing very well , I highly recommend this course for everybody interested in Data Science

I fell very good with this training in fact it is very well explained an in a way a person like me ( non English native language ) easy to catch the instruction

Course provides amazing understanding of data and how it works in real world and what importance it has in core areas like healthcare and many other businesses.

This was a great starter for me. I have very little experience with Data Science, especially the practical work. This provided the foundation I was looking for.

Un buen curso básico para entrar al mundo de la programación. Te enseñan a usar la plataforma de GitHub, descargar R y usar comandos en la Terminal de una Mac.

Its level of difficulty and simplicity is extraordinary well balanced. Totally recommend this course and probably will recommend the whole especialisation too!

Good as a first course. Breaks up the content so that you can understand straight out of the gate if you will have an issue with the tools and software or not.

Interesting and straightforward introduction to main concepts of data science. Gives comprehensive outlook on complexity of working with data and analyzing it.

Best course for beginners, Recommend it to everyone. Thanks a lot for the efforts of the mentors that they put in to create this great course for introduction.

Simple straight forward. It did push me enough to be interesting but not enough to make me give up because it was over my head. Nice step-by-step instructions.

This was a great introduction to data science. It provides an overview of the science in general, and the course provides all the tools needed to move forward.

Excellent course, well organized and very pedagogic. Requires homework and motivation, but really adapted to someone not in the field, thanks to the teachers !

The first course of the Data Science Specialization is relatively easy, but reviews and puts in place everything that will be needed in the following courses.

This course is very interactive and user friendly for someone who is not a programmer and has limited programming language experience. I am very happy so far!

It was very well explained. proved very helpful for me to understand the basics of what a data scientist needs to know about data, data science and analytics.

Really enjoyed the course and Jeff Leak's clear presentation. Feel ready and excited to go and learn even more about Data Science starting with R Programming

As the first course of data science, I feel it is very clear and attracts me to do further study, I cannot wait to continue my journey of data scientist now.

I like how the course is structured. I learned a lot. I was able to set up a github account and download R, R studio and all the tools I need to get started.

Great introduction to the different statistical software packages, Git/Github, intro to data science terminology, and basic command functions to get started.

This course was a quick and easy introduction to the Data Science Specialization. I am looking forward to taking the other courses related to Data Science.

Learned a lot of really useful stuff about version control with GitHub that I had not encountered in my PhD training , but that seems crucial for industry.

It was an informative experience, learned loads about basics of Data Science and the introduction to R was really helpful especially for beginners like me.

It's the best course i have come across. If someone want to become a data analyst, this is the true platform for him/her to show what he/she is capable of.
