This was such a great course/seminar. I have really enjoyed this session. Adam was a great instructor who explained everything very thoroughly and in great detail. I felt I learnt a great level of tips and tricks as well as a lot of skills diving deeply into excel and its formulas and functions. I will definetely return for the advanced session.

I found this super helpful. Adam was absolutely fantastic - one of the best sessions I've attended. The content was extremely relevant and Adam made everything make sense. Highly recommend this course, and even more, I'm extremely impressed with Adam's course delivery style.

Excellent course, Adam is a great instructor and can explain concepts in a simple way that goes around a lot of the confusing jargon from excel. Really helped solidify my understanding of some concepts i was already working with on a basic level and show me where things can be done easier or in greater depth. One thing i might add is allowing students to try and complete some tasks by themselves rather then just following along as a way to improve their understanding

Paul's approach teaching was incredible, I've done this course before and his patience and attention to detail to different level of student skill level is highly appreciated, he manages to personalise parts of the content to make it memorable as the it's very formula heavy.
