This course taught me a lot about data visualisations, dashboarding and presenting to an audience in an extremely insightful way. I was well presented and well worth the time and effort I put into it.

The instructor was amazing, he taught everything in a very calm and well organized way. He was probably the only person who could teach this course because he was not only teaching us through his words but also through his actions. He practiced what he preached in his presentations. You should take this course even if you know how to make presentations and have had some level of experience with them because there's always going to be something you lack or maybe have missed out on and this course teachers you that.

I recently completed the Share Data Through the Art of Visualization course and it was one of the most enlightening and useful courses I’ve taken throughout my career as an analyst. The course content was well-structured and easy to follow, and the instructor was knowledgeable and engaging. I particularly enjoyed learning about data-driven storytelling and how to use Tableau to create effective visualizations. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to improve their data analysis skills!

This course is a great introduction to tableau, and it helps you developa really important skillset of a professional, not only a data analyst, which is presentations, and how to talk with stakeholders. I have recommended this course to some colleagues who have already graduated from their respective degrees, because I firmly believe that it will help them organize their ideas, and plan their presentations, aswell as to be prepared for any question that their audience could make.

I just wanted to express my appreciation for the incredible learning experience I had with the course instructors. Their detailed and step-by-step approach to teaching the material was impressive. The course structure was well-planned, with each lesson building on the previous one, making it easy to follow along and understand. The instructors were knowledgeable, patient, and supportive throughout the entire program. Thank you for a fantastic learning journey.

Kevin in my favourite lecturer of this course so far. His course is informative, interesting, practical and inspiring. Not only did I learned very practical skills and tips about presentaion but also very philosophical high level thinking about what is the purpose behind the tactics. Also the good/bad practice of sideshow& presentation videos gave me a whole new perspactive to view my own presentation experiences and discoverd a huge space of improvement.

This course was well done, as were those prior. Kevin provided very clear direction and lectures with careful and effective articulation. The information was quickly and easily retainable. Though I had studied through pruior Coursera visualization certifications, and I spent some years through career and Masters academia creating and giving presentations, I gained multiple takeaways with the report representation techniques provided in this course.

This was great teaching about presentation. All the work that goes into the cleaning, collecting, analysis and everything will come to presentation. Can you sell the idea, based on data-driven facts to make and predict the business task. I really had good time learning, and relearning lots of concept and ideas. Also introduced me to whole another world of data viz.. part art, part science.. I love the blend, cause I love both art and science.

I enjoyed this course, number 6 of 8 in the Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate. Visualisations are so important for the analyst and this course provides a wealth of information, links and tips.

As always, the course structure combines with the course materials in a seemless way.

At this stage on the journey the foundations are disappearing to reveal deeper structures and combinations of course materials. That's great imo.

It was such an interesting and useful course about storytelling, introduction to Data Viz software Tableau, even Excel for Data Viz, presentation (spoken & written) and many more. Beyond Data Analytics, the learnings here can be applied to other aspects of one's professional and even personal career. Kevin was great as well !! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to improve their data visualization and communication skills.

This course is not just about how to use tableau and spreadsheets to make visualizations but also teaches us how to make a great presentation, how to present our idea, what things we need to be aware of before the presentation, when the presentation, and after presentation, including how to answer objections that may arise from our presentation. Overall, this course is very great to help us on how to become a better presenter.

Great course! Made me think. The instructor (Kevin) kept me interested and motivated throughout the course. This guy is awesome, uber professional, super smart, and calmly happy. The material wasn't difficult, but some of the Challenge questions really made me think and I invested time in finding out why some of my answers were not correct. Anyway, thanks Kevin. Thanks Google. Keep up the good work!

Excellent content, quite extensive. The effort made to collect both material and content is recognized. It has been the course that has taken me the longest to complete but I feel quite satisfied. Remains is the personal commitment to put into practice the knowledge acquired through the visualization tool provided and delve deeper into it, such as Tableau, in order to develop the expected skills as a Data Analyst.

I really love this course. This is one of the best presentation skills course I have ever taken. I really love the concepts and tips shared during the course. I am not native English speaker, I have no problem with tests and lectures. Also it was the best of the first 5 courses in this specialization in terms of teaching - the supporting slides during the video, summary notes after video to sum up. Thank you!

This has easily been the best course in the program so far. I like that it covered the basics of Tableau Public without getting obscure. I also think that the general advice on giving presentations about data was excellent.

As with the rest of the Google courses, there are some annoying quiz questions that could be less pedantic, but this isn't nearly as much of a problem as it was in earlier courses.

One of the main concepts I've learned, is to create a presentation to engage my audience and to put myself in the perspective of the audience that I'm trying to engage. I've learned about Tableau, which I feel is an awesome visualization software that every data analyst should have in their tool box. I also became aware of Microsoft Power Point. I going to explore that further.

This was a difficult course for me, because I always have problems with creativity and my artistic abilities. But at the same time it was very productive because I think my way of seeing the world is more logical and the course was punctual and clear on the topics. I think the content fits with how I can handle those skills. I would have liked to practice more "Tableau".

This course is very full of content and lots of points to reflect about. In this series, this was the course I so far needed to spend most time on. I found the points raised very valuable.

Note however, that this is not a technical course. Lots of the points will only stick if one practises (not included in the course) and comes back to the topics regularly.

I have given a lot of presentations and I was not looking forward to this part of the course. But now I find myself eager to give a real presentation and use what I just learned. I expect my presentations now to be more concise and more focused on my audience and their understanding of my purpose.

I need to get more experience with Tableau and dashboards.

I work in Tableau on a daily basis, but I don't present all of the time and create a lot of large group presentations. I felt like the tips presented in this one were sound (based on my experience) and I learned a lot from the frameworks and approaches that were shown. Also, the exercises were nice brain exercises. Kudos to the team on this one!

Thank you so much for this course! I have learned so much in during this certificate. I did come close to giving up during this part of the course. Life kept throwing curve balls in my way, but I kept on trying to finish this. I am officially very excited to complete this certificate! I can never really express my gratitude with Google!

I thought this was an excellent course with invaluable advice on creating effective presentations.

My only gripe is that, given the other tools used in the specialization and that many learners will have been using Google Sheets and BigQuery, it would have been better to have used Google Data Studio within Google Cloud Platform.

I can totally give a five star rating. Very nice way of teaching even for the non IT people like me. I strongly recommend this course to anyone who is like me and afraid of moving away from their comfort zone. When I can do it, you can do it. Very good graphical representation and easy to understand simple ways to adopt.

The knowledge I have acquired from this course is really invaluable. I learned to use Tableau to develop a visual representation of my analysis in a concise manner. I was also taught the principle and strategy of presenting and communicating my result to the stakeholders to drive an insightful decision. I'm so excited!
