Great course. The amazing thing about the instructor is that you will find something new and exciting in every course and that's why I loved this course and the remaining courses offered by Dr. Chuck.

Great coursera, So much to learn but hard to catch(It was totally new to me).
I mean, really, a few days ago, I didn't even knew what SQL was and now I am getting it.
Thank you very much.......

This is truly a Great Course !!! , The art and the beauty on relational databases work is really amazing ,
I really enjoyed learning this course starting from creating a simple table to creating multiple tables and establishing relationships in each of them .
All thanks to Dr.Chuck , He was absolutely Phenomenal!!! , the way he taught this course was very interactive , He taught us performing even a simple real world problem through SQL .
Once a again, thanks to Dr.Chuck , thanks to University of Michigan and Thanks to Coursera!!!

The course is a good introduction to basic concepts and commands, and builds on them to progress to more advanced use of databases. The lectures are well structured and the examples well explained and helpful (thanks Chuck). The assignments helped to get a bit further.
My experience with MySQL and SQL in general was somewhat limited and more academic, and this course helped to fill some gaps and earn some new skills.
The course is useful and engaging. I enjoyed doing this course and would definitely recommend it.

I have absolutely no background in Computer Sciences at all and I was able to fully comprehend all of the lectures and assignments properly. The video lectures are amazing and explain all the basics one must need to know about this course. My interest has been developed and now I shall explore more advanced SQL courses, that might help me in my career. I want to express my gratitude for Dr. Charles and his team for providing such an amazing content.

This was my first introduction to SQL - DR. Chuck made the learning fun, engaging and easy to understand. I tried to learn SQL using other methods; but there is nothing like having a great tutor! The side projects using phpMyAdmin made the learning all the more engaging; don't be afraid to challenge yourself. If you want to learn the basics of SQL language, database modeling, data tables & columns, this is a great course to start off with!

What great content! The course progresses in a way delivers the exact the knowledge and skills needed to become quickly proficient. Dr. Chuck has developed the most practical and relevant courses that I have ever seen. After auditing these courses, I have added them to my employees professional development plans. I have sixteen particle accelerator engineers. And everyone of them has found uses for all of Dr. Chuck's courses.

As the title says, it is an introductory course to SQL. Must for beginners. Personally, I had already taken two courses on SQL and just wanted to brush through the basics once. But this course was too good. So many things I never knew. This is good even for those who have experience with SQL. I completed course in just 2 days. As I said, it is for beginners. If you are already an intermediate, you might look for advanced courses.

This course was amazing. Helped me learn all the fundamentals of SQL statements and also made me confident about constructing my own databases.
Also, Dr. Chuck is one of the best teachers i have seen on this platform. His informal, often humorous approach to teaching kept me interested even through the somewhat difficult later stages of the course. Definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to learn SQL.

Excellent course by an excellent tutor. Mr Charles delivers all the basic general knowledge about SQL all the while being simple and fluent in communication as a teacher. The assignment are hands on, and they help you think as a database developer. Its not too lengthy and just perfect for about anyone looking to quickly learn all the basics! I'm very happy with this and would recommend to any beginner.

Honestly, I didn't really know SQL could be so easy to learn! Dr. Chuck really did a great job in explaining it easily on converting the data into numbers for representation of data, so that the SQL database could quickly find the fields of information and re-construct it together with some really neat and cool commands.
After learning all those commands, I guarantee you feel like a Hacker! ^^

This is a perfect course. It's very friendly to beginners. I have no experience with SQL or even coding before. The instructor is a very interesting person. With his lecture, the learning experience is super funny. There's always a smile on my face when watching his lecture. I love his teaching style. I appreciate coursera and anyone who contributed to this course. It is brilliant.

It is my first course with Dr.Chuck and I will keep learning with him. Just like other members' review, he can explain in an easy-understanding way; even if I do not have databases background, I can understand and complete the course. SQL is powerful and just like a human language, I would like to learn the intermediate course and become excel in it. Welcome to learn this course.

The professor really makes the content very easy to understand. I really feel the professor is a very interesting guy. A very good introduction to database if you have not learned it before. This course can help you to get familized with downloading sql, the basic structure and the multiple table connection in the database. Best of all!!! Good luck with your journey in self-study.

If you are struggling to get practical with SQL, then this course is for you.
It teaches you what you need basically to start your journey in SQL and this is exactly what I needed to get practical. It does not teach the heavy theory or the heavy SQL commands but it gives you the foundation and with the foundation, you can keep learning everything else at ease.

Dr Chuck, was awesome, at first I used to dislike His mode of teaching. But the end of the Course , I really recognized that Dr chuck was very Professional, eloquent and well trained for teaching the Course . A lot of things that I learnt from Him like SQL injection, i don't know if i could have discovered them if i were to learn this Course on my Own.

Hi there, after learning and completing this SQL course, I have really learnt and understood what SQL is and its useful operations while I am a Health Informatics postgrad student who is also learning SQL and Access as key parts of my Health Data analysis, so this SQL Coursera course is really useful to enhance my future skills. Best regards.

I learned a bit about SQL and databases in Dr. Chuck's Python courses -- that was enough to allow me to tinker with databases with no fear when I dabbled in Ruby on Rails. But this class really clarified a lot of things related to SQL and database management for me. For me it's been an easy course, but nonetheless I learned a HUGE amount.

Great course for an introduction to SQL. Chuck goes into detail and combines the lessons with humour to make the lessons enjoyable. He also provides additional website and sources for further SQL knowledge (the website does this too). Additionally, the teachers are helpful and answer questions on the discussions forums promptly.

I had a little SQL experience from Dr. Chuck's Py4E specialization, but I lacked a lot of confidence in what little I'd learned. This solidified it for me, and I've gained a lot of confidence and interest in SQL. Suddenly a lot of what I'd seen using Excel and Access in the past has made a lot of sense, too. Very cool stuff!
