This is a great course for beginners. One of the things which can be improved is to have more practice questions to use all the concepts introduced in the lectures. For example: I did not get a lot of chance to create

The Course was a great, well structured and gave good hands on experience with the queries and quizzes. The only thing lacking was no proper instructions were given to use the sandbox, I really struggled with that.

the last few courses are vague and do not have many examples. and model codes are not provided when the answer is wrong. some questions are so weird, i can never get some them right even though I know it is right.

Course videos could include the respective output after showing codes. it is hard to imagine the output when we first get to know a new sql function.

Some peer review assignment questions are hardly understandable.

I have prior knowledge on SQL as a programmer. However after studying this course I got a another flavor of SQL from the Data Science point of view. I loved this course and the trainer as well. Thank you coursera.

It was really good but the only downside for me was the final exam, setting up DBeaver was a challenge for someone with no prior experience. I would have liked it to be on coursera like the whole module has been.

Some examples in the later part of the course is a bit difficult to understand for those with limited programming background. Few broken down, step by step examples of complex queries will be highly appreciated.

Very good and taught me a lot of useful things I would use in a real life case scenario, however background reading was required. This is to supplement and ask about why we would use that particular clause etc.

The videos and explanations are nice but it would be excellent if the running of SQL code and its outcome

Will also be shown in the video so as to explain the minute difference between two functions in the code

The course was very well organized and the instructor was fabulous. I just wish we had received more practice exercises as I feel that I know the material theoretically well but practically I'm less confident.

The course is mostly based on theoretical content, which makes it a pretty good foundation for those who have never touched SQL. I would rate this course 5 star if it provided more examples and applications.

last part needed a lot of effort to import data into tables correctly. It was not about SQL, it was about software and data format. Also, the format is specific and it requires even more effort with pgAdmin

The first two modules are okay and easy to understand, but the last two modules are little bit confusing, and from my perspective, the instructor is simply reading the script rather than teaching a lesson.

Easy to understand and learn basic SQL concepts over 4 weeks. Only wish it was longer with more opportunities to practice coding. Will definitely look at taking a more advanced SQL course through Coursera.

The final project was way harder than the materials taught in classes, It would be better if they teach more before letting us handle such challenging task. Still the course was great, and I learned a lot.

The course content itself was awesome! Be ready for some technical glitches though. As long as you pay close attention to the forum, you should be fine. Overall, I would definitely recommend this course.

I think the peer review exercise is a great way to test your learned skills. The lectures are easy to understand but I think it would be better if you added more info about the structure of ER diagrams.

As an introductory course is well designed and well explained. The supplement lectures were of great help. Maybe a little introduction to Analytical Functions should help to make it completely awesome!

Overall the content is good and the tutor is also good in the explanation the codes and concepts.

One suggestion there should be a more practical example and as well as how to run a query on a dataset.

Although several concepts are not explained very clearly and a number of assessment questions are unclearly worded, this course is otherwise an excellent introduction to understanding and applying SQL.

The course is a decent introduction to SQL. However, the instructor makes weird pauses as if she was reading the script for the first time which is quite annoying. Overall the experience was positive.

I liked most of the course, but in week 4 it felt rushed. The code shown in the slides wasn't formatted consistently all the time.

But all in all thanks for the education. I would recommend the course.

The course is nice but I suppose the PowerPoint presentation that accompanies it could use some effects to show us the clauses one by one, as they are spoke. That would make understanding them easier.

Good course for beginners.

- classes are fine

- quizzes evaluate quite well your understanding I think

- the final assessment contains plenty of VERY ambiguous questions and I think it should be reworked

Please Included examples while the instructor is teaching in the video lectures. The instructor is very talented in teaching but due to lack of examples in the video it downgrades the overall course.
