There is far too little focus on actually creating visualizations. Too much time is taken up with best practices for presenting, which is wasted on a class where there are no live presentations. I'll keep my notes as reference, but it would be a lot more useful to have ended the class with a decent portfolio of Tableau visualizations. Some of the quiz questions also need to be rewritten -- many of them are either ambiguous or phrased so narrowly that they feel like trick questions. All in all, it's not a bad course, but the emphasis is wrong for the format.

This course is amazing theoretically in regard to how to present the data, BUT it doesn't teach Tableau sufficiently enough or rather not at all. I wish instead of all the talking about presentation tips, they could invest more time on Tableau by making more hands on projects or explaining more about it. And the "dashboard" project was on the application desktop version of the app, which I didn't like. There was ambiguity in it.

That course was my least favored one. I'll have to do a lot of stuff related to visualizations on my own.

By far the weakest of the Google Data Analyst Courses so far (1-6). Content repeats itself numerous times only to introduce more and more different options for terminology. Questions in challenges are unclear, so are the key takeaways from this course. Heavy contrast to the first 5 courses of Google DA-Certificate, highly academic and far away from hands-on. More an academic approach to data analysis, although this (sharing) would be a very nice part to throw in some practical guides and real-life hints.

The other courses in this program are interesting, but this was painful to get through. I liked the instructor, but the content was not at all engaging and the course challenge was too difficult. The concepts are abstract and feel somewhat subjective. I found myself rushing through the course and failed the challenge several times, which could be due in part to me rushing through, but the challenge also focused on minute concepts instead of really evaluating an understanding of the concepts.

Tableau was not taught deeply rather describe the presentation skill all the way. Presentation is an inherited skill also. Therefore in my opinion learning some technique is fine. When people has more technical knowledge then they can answer confidently and then no need to think so much about presentation skill. In this course the technical lecture about Tableau might be included more. I feel this might be helpful for audience. Thanks for your lecture.

I like how much emphasis was given to story telling through data...however Tableau is a really powerful tool and this course hardly touched on it at all. I was hoping this course would go more into building the hard skills with data visualization in Tableau or Excel. There is a lot of lingo associated with Tableau that could have been mentioned as well. This is coming from someone who has a Tableau certification.

Many of the activities are out of date and do not follow along with the directions given. For example, one activity took me hours to complete b/c the directions were out of date and I asked for help numerous times, and there is NO help for real-time content questions. You really need to have someone for that. With the 50$ per month, i deserve that at least.

I was bored during this course, with all respect but the instructor couldn't have my attention as the previous instructors did, he introduced advanced topics with complex expressions & a lot of information for one course. In my opinion, Connor who showed up in the last module would have been better as an instructor for this course.

This has been the most haphazard course of the set. The narrator goes to great lengths to describe best practices and then presents examples that don't follow his advice. Some advice on giving good presentations is solid. Anyone with speaking experience could have just run through the Tableau training and skipped the rest.

Course is full of filler content about art, storytelling and presentation and has very little to none practical usage of Tableu. Tableu is covered in only one week out of four in this course so you should rename the course something like : "Learn how to talk and present and take other courses on Tableu after this one".

This course is pretty terrible: it says that it will teach you tableau, but in reality it only teaches the most basic functions of it, and doesn't explain hardly anything. After completing this course--I tried to do an actual project in Tableau, and realized that I learned practically Nothing from this entire course!

I was a little disappointed with the balance between Tableau-related content and general presentation skills. There was far too little on Tableau and far too much presentation skills. While being able to present well and effectively is very important, the promise of this course was learning to use Tableau.

Really the weakest of the courses so far. Boring, very "american corporate culture" oriented, and quite long winded. While the skills in other courses are very much applicable outside of the corporate soul-crushing world, this one is barely applicable even there, let alone outside.

This course is too subjective and one have to rely on the Lecturer's suggestion and opinion to pass quizzes. In other words, you have to remember word for word what he said in the videos. This course spent too little time teaching you how to construct a presentation in tableau.

The instructions for the Tableau section were overly complicated and very difficult to follow with limited screen shots. It's a complicated program and smaller bite-sized assignments would have been more helpful for getting our feet wet.

Does not spend nearly enough time with Tableau and instead you are presented with painfully obvious observations about basic visual design and conceptual anecdotes about data visualization. I guess I'll go learn more on YouTube for free.

The entire program is very superficial, but this course feels especially so. I don't question the content quality, but the course turned out very uninteresting. I lost the motivation on week 2 and really struggled to finish it.

Decent information, but I wish that this course focused more on Tableau than presentation skills. I would have liked to see some more hands-on activities or even guided activities for creating visualizations from scratch.

I hoped to learn how to use Tableau. The course spent 10% of time in teaching me this and wasted 90% of my time on memorizing useless definitions and talking about absolute basics of giving a presentation.

General tips on presentation is Ok, although the week 1 and 2 were unncessarily verbose. This module lacks depth with using Tableau. More time needs to be devoted to teaching real stuff about Tableau.

The instructor in the Share Data Through the Art of Visualization part is weak and does not go step by step and sometimes fails to mention what he clicked to be there he makes me hate the course

Volume was a bit dull and also the instructor was not so proactive while teaching. This course is designed for someone who already have hands on experience on tableau or know basics.

This course is not organized, so many definitions and information in a messy way. Also the instructor is not so good as he is monotonic and the sound volume of his videos is so low

I was looking forward to learn tableau... but the content regarding it was very poor, while common sense stuff regarding presentations had a heavy weight during the course.

Very boring instructor. It was a very mundane leacture about data viz. Could have been better if it taught more about tableau and its features than just reading stuff.
