This presentation is literally better quality online education material than what is used at some accredited universities... and it is free. Well done.

You are very welcome! It is always good to hear that my tutorials help students. Good luck in your classes.

Thank you very much for your compliments. I use a variety of different software including photoshop, illustrator, HTML5, Final Cut, GarageBand and a few other products. Each video takes me a long time to create. My rule of thumb is each minute of video takes about 12 hours to create, so a 7 minute video takes me about 84 hours of development time.

Thanks so much for you feedback. This sort of feedback does inspire me to keep posting videos. I feel like I am just starting. I am getting ready to post a series of videos on SPSS and Multiple Linear Regression this weekend.

Make sure you like MyBookSucks on FaceBook (see link in video description). This will help others find the educational videos.

Appreciate the pause in between sentences so my slow brain could catch up

[shadowfox]

I love how slow you go. You are not trying to sound super smart, so I have time to actually think. Thank you so much.

THis is much better than Khan Academy.
I'm going to your next video.

This is a very clear and pleasant way to refresh topics I've lost over the years, thank you!

F is named after guy who invented Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The purpose of ANOVA is to compare more than two groups. You could use t statistics to compare two groups.

I have an entire playlist on ANOVA and I add a link to the playlist in this video description.

You are indeed amazing sir / professor / buddy / mentor / coach! I think 'simplifying' isn't everyone's cup of tea. Thanks a bunch, for taking all the efforts for lesser mortals like us, making statistics palatable and digestible.

I think this is my first comment on youtube.

Thank you for the smooth and clear explanation of this topic!

[purdocchio]

Oh my god, thank you so much for your videos. I am a medical doctor, doing post graduate exams which include statistics, which I haven't done since back in college years ago. Your videos are amazing and simple, thank you... Really helped me to get on track.

[bennesoccer]

you literally saved me on my final in business stats. If i ever see you you get a hug.

[alexkim]

Wow a video created EIGHT years ago! So good.

After scrolling through all over the internet, finally found the most clear explanation video to understand regression model! As a person who has weak-math background, this videos match a lot with my understanding level. Thanks million.!

[elkillamartinez]

much appreciated, people like you keep this world alive still

[statisticsfun]

Wow! Thank you very much and your feedback is much appreciated. I also appreciate you spreading the word and letting the other lecturers know about the videos.

Good luck in your studies as well.

Really dedicated guy! - Taking 84 hours and providing it to the community. I mean - people who view the videos don't realize the effort until some one read this. I can relate to this.

[michellemix]

I have read through 2 textbooks and scoured the internet to understand this. Your video actually made sense. Thank you

[statisticsfun]

You are very welcome, and I plan to keep posting more and more videos.
