I start a data analysis internship next week where we work with tableau and after working through this video throughout this week, I feel super prepared. The information was easy to digest and the examples were not only good examples but interesting and fun to work on. Amazing tutorial! So glad I stumbled upon it. Gonna be ahead of the curve for my internship!

This was great. Applying to a new job that wants Tableau experience and I feel confident putting it on my resume now!

I'm currently studying data analysis, and looking for some additional information I found this video... Many thanks! I'm also not the best English speaker, but your pace, slides and repeating made me understand everything!

[brozkeeper]

Your pace is everything for me. I learn best from such delivery speed. Thank you

[BrettBaron-ki]

This is fantastic! Explained high level data concepts in a digestible manner while also connecting this specifically to Tableau. Thank YOU!

[jacobwwarner]

Great review. Power BI seems more familiar and easier to work with than Tableau. I found it easy to relate concepts from my other courses in business analytics and databases.

[chelebarry]

I have to say the video is really good I am beginner and I have enjoyed the way the information has flowed...

[benjaminpayne]

This is extremely well done. Thank you for making this.

[twistyrocks]

The bike sales data is not in the zip file that was sent. Is there another place that we can download the dataset?

[shumettefera]

Soooo generous and knowledgeable!! Thanks man

[tehreemathar]

from where can we get the exact data files which are being used in this video? the one i downloaded is about movie lists

[Temidayobanjo]

i cant find the bikes sales data in the file I downloaded

[TheW]

1:17:50 still confused why is there a need to differentiate the data into dimension, measure and further into discreet measure.

[estebanlastra]

@simonSezIT the data set received on the email is incomplete . Where can I find all datasets used in this video?

[DrewPhillips-DOLA]

Great resource, can't believe it's free... But does anyone else get distracted by the narrator pronouncing "hover" to rhyme with "bother" ("HAAW-VER")?

[prashantpavar]

Please make full sperate video tutorials on report and dashboard visualisation, DAX functions
