“I would recommend this course WITHOUT hesitation!! It has helped me so much!! Absolutely encourage signing up for it.
“I was overwhelmed with the prospect of starting to use R, especially given all the many websites and resources available online. This course was exactly what I needed - clear and organized ideas, step-by-step instructions, and the use of real examples and practice strategies. Such a wonderful resource!
“What made me decide to engage with R in 3 Months was the focus on accessibility and inclusivity. It promised to simplify the complexity of R and make it approachable for someone like me who didn't have a strong background in programming or statistics. Before the course, my use of R was quite limited and mostly experimental, and I was not fully comfortable with the language. However, after completing R in 3 Months, my confidence and competence in using R have significantly increased. Now I use R regularly for a variety of tasks, such as data manipulation, data wrangling, data cleaning, statistical analytics, and data visualization. This has allowed me to leverage R more effectively in my professional projects.
“This is the best R lesson for all beginners. Best Tutor :)
“A great start to getting your feet wet with R!
“I really enjoyed the "getting started" course at rfortherestofus.com. It was a perfect introductory course that really got me to a very good start. Everything was explained very simply. One other thing i liked about the course was that it gave us the same files that were used in the course making it easier to follow along.
“This was so informative! I appreciate all of the help!
“I learned very much from this course, and I now have a better understanding of how to use Git and GitHub with R. Before this course, I was unsure what GitHub was really about and how to integrate GitHub into my workflow. Now I feel more confident to make it an integral part of my work in R, and I am relieved to have a much better handle on version control. I have hope that it will be a great tool for collaboration going forward.
“R in 3 Months is a wonderful resource for beginners or experienced R users alike – truly the best R resource I know for learning and expanding R skills.
“It was a very begginer friendly course for R! I loved it

How to Get Started Using AI with R
May 27, 2026
There are so many ways to use AI with R now that it's genuinely hard to know where to start. Should you just use ChatGPT in a browser tab? Install something into your code editor? And if so, which one? I made a video walking through the main options, with the pros and cons of each. The simplest approach is the one most people start with. Pop open ChatGPT in a browser and ask it R questions the same way you'd ask anything else. It works, but you end up bouncing back and forth between the...
Introducing the {pdfcheck} R package for checking the accessibility of PDFs
February 5, 2026
Are the PDFs you're creating accessible? Can someone using a screen reader navigate them? Is the color contrast sufficient for people who are colorblind? These are questions we've been getting a lot from our consulting clients at Clarity Data Studio. And honestly? When we reviewed our own PDFs, we found there wasn't a really great tool to check accessibility and give us actionable steps to improve. So we decided to build our own. It's called {pdfcheck}, and it's an R package that helps you...
