The ipynb file is very useful with filled in cells for each of the topics. However, it might be better if we can get the chance to write the code ourselves more during the course. It might slow the pace down, but we will get more used to the small intricacies of the syntax/code with regards to Data Analytics/Visualization, since small changes can lead to different results. Right now, assessment is the first opportunity to do so. A suggestion would be to leave the cells for the 'Class Activity' section empty; to be filled by students themselves and then explained by the instructor. (Posted on 8/31/2023)

3. How do you find the training environment

Course itself is very good. If I must write something, maybe 871 can be less cold and common toilets outside of office can be cleaner (but I understand that this may be out of your control)

Terence, the trainer, proved to be not only intellectually stimulating but also infused the class with wit and humor, elevating the overall engagement. Beyond imparting hard coding skills, he explains the logic behind each code, ensuring clarity and depth in comprehension. Moreover, the course's inclusion of essential statistics concepts adds immense value for data practitioners. In all, the program expanded my horizons, offering fresh insights and prompting a reevaluation of conventional notions. (Posted on 8/6/2023)

Dr. Alvin is a passionate trainer, who is never withholding his knowledge and always keen to share them. I came to the course not expecting to have full attention but Dr. Alvin made it easy with his endless sharing of knowledge and life stories. He made understanding Data Analytics easy with his practical way of teaching. He also has an array of open source websites which he has accumulated and consolidated for your easy reference. Overall, enjoyed the course as I learned and gained more than I would have expected to. (Posted on 5/10/2023)

Dr Alvin answered all my questions thoroughly (and very patiently) as he understood well that I am very new to the field and still finding my way. I really appreciated his upfront comments and observations about the industry and feel like I benefitted from the course in more ways than just learning about data visualisation.

I could definitely feel his passion for the topics discussed, always a bonus to have a tutor that genuinely enjoys what they are teaching! (Posted on 4/9/2023)
