Very good teaching of fundamentals. Everything was explained in a really structured manner. Final assessment was like cherry on the cake as it helped in revisiting what has been taught over the weeks.

The course was defiantly more than I expected. It not only strengthened what I did know about Excel but it showed me several options that I was not using or haven't found. I would highly recommend it.

Perfect! I've enjoyed learning anything as I've enjoyed learning Excel through this course. The instructors are so fun and very smart. once I started the very first practice video, I didn't want to stop! It was so fun and I think I've excelled "excel". I highly recommend it to anyone. I wish Macquarie University would offer us similar courses in the rest of microsoft software.

Excellent course for beginners as well as for those who are little bit familiar with Excel. Instructors are too good. Assignments and Quizzes are well formed and some of them are slightly challenging. There are many small things in excel that one must know and this perfectly covered aspects. This course surely helped me to learn new skills and now I'm confident in using Excel

This was a course I wish I had taken earlier, from Africa online learning experience hasn't been really great for me, but the story of "shawn" it kept me through it. I love the tutors clear, accurate and straight to the point. I did it in 10days, you should do better in more days. I hope to learn in person under these tutors in Macquarie University one day. I recommend this.

Although this is a basic Excel class, it's good to take to refresh yourself with the different capabilities in Excel, even if you're a more experienced user. This is an all-around good refresher course that may help even more experienced users do their work more efficiently and effectively with reminders of shortcuts and the additional functionalities available with Excel.

En este curso pude aprender muchisimo de las herramientas de excel, y sobre todo como aplicarlas.
La metodologia de enseñanza del curso es muy buena, ya que practicas mucho los conocimentos que te brindan en las clases, y de esa forma aprendes .
El conocimiento no sirve sino sabes aplicarlo, y este del curso, el de aplicar los conocimientos brindados para que puedas aprender.

Initially thought this was too much of a basic to me but I do realize that there are some areas of Excel which I previously do not know of. Filling in the missing gaps in my Excel essential knowledge has helped me increase efficiency when working with big data. The course was also easy to understand and videos are kept short and sweet. This would help any beginners to Excel!

Great course, very clear, very well-organized and pretty easy to follow! I'd like to thank the teachers, they put a huge effort to motivate us, and it worked! I recommend it to everyone desiring to polish his/her knowledge of Excel, or to get acquainted with this program! I hated it before, but now I feel like an expert (kind of), which makes me more confident and happy ! :)

Simply a must. One might think it will be a waste of time as he has confidence in his understanding of the various features of excel, but upon auditing/enrolling this course, he is bound to find how many features there were that he just didn't know of.
The content is excellent - concise, detailed, and to the point. The assignments and practice material are simply incredible.

At first you think that only 3-5 videos per week is not a lot or you are not going to learn a lot but that not true, I like it because I was able to easily understand the tasks and how everything function.
Its a very good course that teach you like the name say all the essentials of excel and how to easily navigate in it but most importantly to lose that fear to use excel.

It's a very good course; I consider I've learned quite a lot! It's a good starting point if you're completely new to Excel like I was, and you will need to continue developing your skills in order to become more proficient. The tutors are incredibly clear and straightforward in their explanations; I thoroughly enjoyed the videos and activities provided. Totally recommend.

It's a very easy, efficiently designed course of Excel for those who want to have a good confidence in using Excel and make, manage, format and print the spreadsheets and present it to their management. Instructors were highly proficient in guiding us through this course. Practice Challenges and quizzes really help you gain your grip on this software. Highly Recommended!

This course goes over basics and provides helpful tips and tricks throughout. There are plenty of opportunities to play around with spreadsheets and practice the techniques from the lessons. I have been using spreadsheets for a while, but I am self-taught. So, while there was a good amount I already knew, there were hidden gems in every set of lessons. I highly recommend!

I loved Sean! He's just become a somebody from a nobody. Both the course instructor Prashan and Nicky explained the topics really well. I have never seen such a well-organized course before! It was fun doing this course in just two days and getting a very satisfactory grade. Thanks to both of you. I'm looking forward to doing the upcoming courses in this specialization.

This course is amazing. I learnt so many things which are new and I used that thing a lot but never knew the name of that particular tool. I highly recommend this course. The best part of this course is the mentors which are great and give you detailed information about every aspect. The test series is also one of the aspects which help you to do better in this course.

This was a very challenging but well organized course. I feel that I learned more than I believed I would. I liked the set up of the lessons, short lecture, practice then quiz. The final exam was tough but being able to go back and review areas where I was not sure of myself helped me over the line. I plan on enrolling in other courses from this school. Thank you!

Great practical course! I was already able to put what I learnt into creating some useful Excel spreadsheets in a short span of time. I would recommend this course to others if they do not know where to start when learning how to use Excel effectively. My familiarity and efficiency with Excel tools has increased because of this well-structured and professional course.

No matter how skilled we assume ourselves in excel after having worked for the firm and learnt along the way, there were gaps. The gaps in the form of not knowing what that term is or how to do something efficiently or where tools are placed. This course literally helped fill all the gaps and gave a new insight into how things can be done brilliantly and effortlessly.

Easy to follow. You are given lots of resources and practice in order to be skilled at Excel. Great work from the instructors. You can come here with little to no knowledge in Excel and come out better than the common person. It is particularly good as a stepping stone to a more specialized skill hunting. Thank you sir and ma'm. Thank you Coursera. Education for all!
