“I've just completed Dave's Introduction to Business Analysis with Excel course. I found it hugely enjoyable, engaging and well paced. I learnt a lot of useful concepts which crucially I found I could relate to very well thanks to the courses use of Excel as a vehicle for teaching the ideas.
I would highly recommend Dave's material to anyone looking for a suitable launching pad into learning Data Analytics. I've tried many different platforms over the last few years, including the big MOOC platforms like Edx and Coursera and I've found Dave On Data to be by far the best for my purposes. I would also recommend you check out his YouTube channel."

"First, I'd like to thank Dave for the great effort he put on this course (Introduction to Machine Learning With R). For an introductory course, I found it very detailed and well explained. The methods he uses on teaching are just awesome and that makes the course way too easy to understand.
Dave is also very responsive and that just adds to the awesomeness. I honestly can't wait to take more courses with him. Also, the things you learn in this course are highly applicable in real life, and he makes the math to be so easy. If you are a beginner in this field, then this is the right place. If you are an experienced data scientist trying to do a refresher course, this is the right place too.
Keep up the good work Dave, I'm inspired. Thank you."

"I completed David Langer's course, R Programming Made Easy. As a decision support analyst, I have a burning desire to solve more problems and not let the data scientists have all the fun. My first step on that path is familiarizing myself with one of the primary languages used in data science, R.
Dave's enthusiasm for data digging and problem-solving shine through in the videos.When I ran one section of code and looked at the results, I shouted, 'Whoa!' because of the implications.
So if you want to quickly get up to speed on the basics of R, I recommend Dave's 'R Programming Made Easy'. I will definitely be signing up for his future offerings."
