Digestible videos to understand the capabilities of Pivot Tables. The last section about formatting can probably be removed as it is pretty generic and applicable to every sheet. Overall a good introduction to pivot tables.

Well explained. Easy to understand and to follow the directions. I wish the instructor went a little more in depth about adding Rows and Values. Utilizing more data and examples. Maybe showing an example of a graph showing the data collected.

Yes, it's been a good match. I learn better when I do what the instructor does, step by step. That helps me retain it better.

clear examples and the data is something you can relate to. The information can be applied to day to day operations. It isn't so outlandish that you wouldn't use it on a day to day basic.

It exceeded my expectations. It took me more than 3 hours, but it was very engaging and easy to follow. Exercises were challenging and I never thought it would be so easy to learn.
