Don't Take it From Us

Our learners say it best

I just want to say how much I enjoyed R in 3 Months with R for the Rest of Us. It was a really great course. I was very intimidated to learn R. I finished my PhD and we were mostly working with SPSS and I started a new role where it became apparent that I needed to use and learn R pretty quickly. David and Charlie were great in helping me get up to speed and start working in R nearly every day. They make it quite fun and enjoyable to learn how to start exploring this great new, wonderful world of R. I got a lot of individualized attention and so it's a great course. I couldn't recommend it more.

I shared R for the Rest of Us with my daughter who is in college and trying to learn R, and she texted me an hour later..."OMG, this is 1000x better and easier to understand than the other videos I saw." Thank you David for making R so easy to understand!

I've used R quite a bit in the past, but until taking this course, I felt like I was navigating a maze with my eyes closed -- running bits and pieces of code and troubleshooting each time I bumped into a wall, but never truly understanding where I'd been or where I was headed. "Getting Started with R" is the map to the maze that I never knew I needed, but now don't know how I'd live without! David clearly explains foundational concepts and makes R so much easier to understand. Whether you're brand-new to R or have been using it for years, I highly recommend this course.

This is an excellent introduction to R and Rstudio and the capabilities of R. It was easy to understand and the exercises and tips were very helpful. I learned a lot. Thank you for offering this us to dip our toes into using R.

Eric Excellent beginner course...

Very easy to follow along and learn a lot in a short amount of time!

Rosemarie Stenfeldt

Very good explanations of the basics of R, practical exercises are always welcome

Jean Olmedillo Floder

Good quick overview. I'm likely to take more courses from them in the near future. The mapping course looks very interesting.

Learning R and GGPLOT with books (e.g., R for Data Science), and youtube provided me basic knowledge with many potholes. Getting Started with R assisted me in reorganizing my foundations, making sense of the patchwork of knowledge I have, while addressing several of my gaps. Of particular value are the tips as to how securing help for learning about the nuances of tidyverse functions.

This course is a short, clear, and comforting way to get started with R starting with installing the package and opening a dataset to viewing data and defining missings and variable types. I highly recommend it if you plan to start using R.
