Testimonials

Author's name

Hey, I'm Tristan from France and I had to use R in order to adapt to a new research environment. You demystified R for me. Your choice to introduce tidy verse early took away much of the clunkyness of R. The format was fun and engaging, diving right in the subject without longish expositions. You obviously loved making those courses and it shows. It was worth every penny.

Kwame K

As a complete beginner in R programming, I was hesitant to dive into the world of coding. But this introductory course completely transformed my perspective. The step-by-step approach took me from having no knowledge of R to being confident in exploring, cleaning, describing, and analysing data with ease. The course has made a significant impact on my professional life, as I can now leverage R programming to make data-driven decisions and generate valuable insights. I seriously recommend this course to anyone seeking to learn R programming from scratch and unlock their potential in data analysis.

Samantha

So, I didn't know anything about R programming when I signed up for this course, and the whole data analysis thing kind of freaked me out. But, let me tell you, this course was a game-changer for me. It was super easy to follow, even for beginners like me, and it covered everything from the basics to more complicated stuff. The hands-on exercises were a big help, too - they really helped me get comfortable with R. If you're looking to improve your R programming skills, I totally recommend this course!
