Our learners say it best.
“I liked the explanations a lot, they were very clear and easy to follow. I would recommend you definitely to a friend!
“For anyone wanting to learn R, I cannot recommend this course enough!
“Fundamentals of R was an approachable, helpful course. I recommend it for anyone who's new or new-ish to R. The format is extremely helpful and the course's user interface makes things really easy.
“Your succinct lessons were the gateway for my fast advancement. By learning the basics from this course, I have already gone down the deep end of conducting inferential statistics, machine learning, and other advanced analyses. I've already impressed my boss with my first HTML report to our VP!
“One of the most informative courses I have ever taken. The weekly videos are extremely helpful and show step by step how to code in R. In addition, you will have access to these videos even after the course finishes. I was very confused on how to use R just by reading books, but after this course I feel a lot more confident in R.
“Thanks for effectively introducing me to R. It's a very helpful course.
“Before the course, I could kind of read R code, and I could put patches together and I would Google stuff, copy and paste and hope it worked. Sometimes it did, sometimes it didn't. Now after the course, I'm much more R literate and much more confident.
“Very easy to work with. loved all the lecture videos. each one making you to want more. The lessons are all easily grasped and understood. Looking forward to the next courses
“I feel like searching the internet for help with R is like looking for a very specific needle across a giant field of haystacks, and you are the metal detectors that get us where we need to be more quickly.
“Your intro course makes me feel like R is not as daunting as I initially thought and it is something I can learn (with time).

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...

Taking a Typst template and...
