I enjoyed being given access to the resources, and the instructor was very informative and answered all my questions :)
Mark was really good in explaining the concepts in a way they go straight into the head of the audience. (students). He politely asked all the questions with no hesitation. He was making sure everyone is following the course till the end which was amazing. thank you so much.
Presenter was very approachable, friendly and helpful, gave examples in a relatable manner and at a good pace
This course was fantastic, Mark is an excellent teacher and explained everything so articulately. I did not think I would absorb as much of this course as I have, I'm very happy
Lived the stories to go along with the explanations, made real world sense Great small class atmosphere Great relaxed environment Location
The course was really insightful, enjoyable and well structured. Matt kept us all engaged and entertained. Thanks Matt!
Domenic was very knowledgeable about course content and any additional questions that came up to help in relating this training to our individual work areas. The course content was a great overview of the possibilities of SQL and the basic functions we would need to get started.
Found this course extremely valuable. Basically went from 0 in SQL to having some basic confidence on how to find my way around databases. It was seriously great. I particularly enjoyed the breaks Matt gave us to do exercises in our own time, to apply the skills we were learning.
The course was extremely helpful and well structured. It provided in-depth coverage of essential SQL concepts with clear, practical examples provided by the instructor which made it easy to follow, the instructor explained each topic thoroughly, maintained great engagement throughout, and ensured complex topics were simplified and well understood before moving on. Overall, it was a valuable learning experience that has given me confidence in using SQL. Thank you so much Matthew
Thank you very much, Mark for making SQL approachable, even for someone with no prior experience. 'Abet Youknow' how to keep learners engaged -- loved the humour in your database design!
Domenic was a great instructor and was very helpful in answering questions. First day was more applicable for me and worked as a refresher, but it was nice to have knowledge of the additional functions covered on the second day.
The course moved at a good pace. Domenic was very knowledgeable and was able to troubleshoot problems and answer any questions we had. Some more exercises would be helpful. Even as optional extras for us to do ourselves after the course.
I really enjoyed this course, the material was explained well and the instructor gave valuable information to questions asked.
This course is informative, easy to follow. The way the instructor explained things are easy to follow and I am able to connect back to the course.
Matthew is very professional and a good instructor. What I really appreciate most was his patience and approachability-No questions was ever too small.
