I have gone through a lot of videos to learn about Power BI even purchased a course. But when Youtube recommended your video, I turn out to a fan of your teaching, the way you introduced everything. Watching your videos for a couple of weeks and this is your may be longest video. But How it come to end tells about your teaching. Thank you Bas for helping everyone...

[markusoestreich]

I knew how it all connects and ultimately how power BI is the tool to use. But I still watched the video. The way you explain it and get there is exceptional! Well done and I will share this with a couple people that need to understand that. It’s just so important and sooo much more motivating when you know the background … very well done! Thank you

[mikeberry]
