I am currently a college student with no degree or professional experience and I just started the Google Data Analytics Certificate on Coursera. I'm leaving this comment to mark the beginning of my journey towards becoming a Data Analyst. I'm locking in and committing to this. I'll provide updates on how it's going every now and then. Wish me luck.

I like your content but I think you should try to go light on having that “i am a cool person” vibe such as “sipping coffee every 20 seconds” lool😂

[joshuachong]

Great and informative video :)
I appreciate the editing and flow of the topics

This is the best break down of what DA is on YouTube.

Man, you save my day. Today is my bad day cause many companies requirement needs skill programming but i'm not programmer i just have skill in SQL, Excel and Visualization. But, when i watching your video it make me to get new insight that SQL and Excel is very important to be as data analyst.

[Mahmoodahmadyoutube]

Man this is roadmap and explanation with concrete and engaging content is just way of the charts

[JimmyDropz]

I'm like 6 minutes in, I know tableau, know SQL advanced, know excel beg.. I have an AS in Computer Programming and Business Analytics with no prior work experience. Its impossible to even get a data entry job for 20$ an hour. Easy is an understatement.

Your storytelling is amazing by the way! I am now starting my journey! Peace from Bénin Republic in west Africa!

[amberbutler]

Thank you! This is a great explanation. I'm thinking about completing a MS program in Data science but they teach you python, SQL, R, and statistics. I've seen the free options I just feel like the schooling will keep me up to date and I won't let life get in my way

[Kpopgirlfan]

Thank you so much for these informations. I am a Junior and just switched my major to data science and was needing all of these things that you mentioned. Great video!

[erikk]

With you drinking and looking so happy after every sip, I feel like I'm watching an episode of drunk history of data analytics.
