Dataquest

Learning a programming language can be challenging, especially without guidance or mentorship. Recently, due to my interest in creating JupyterLab, I decided to leverage on online platforms to learn more about Python. Within a short period of time, I... Read More was able to narrow down to either Dataquest or DataCamp. Eventually, I chose Dataquest because: 1. Dataquest allows selection of a career track that allows me to prioritise learning the essentials first. 2. Have more open-ended questions allow better retaining of information and knowledge. 3. Provides realistic datasets (especially dataframes) so that you can directly apply some of these codes to real-life scenarios. 4. Contents given are engaging and interactive. You can also choose to skip sections that may not be of interest to your applications. In summary, I have been learning from Dataquest for almost a week and was so satisfied with the course design that I bought the premium membership after a day of testing out. I would thus recommend Dataquest, especially for learning Python.

I spent almost 2 years of self learning & practicing towards data science & machine learning using python..I tried almost every online learning platforms till I landed on 'Dataquest' which provides a fantastic & practical/industrial level courses that... Read More will satisfy every practitioner.

I just love the fact that I get to write code and I enjoy each and every question being asked. When I first started I knew nothing about python, but Dataquest has made it easy for me to understand, it's like I have been coding with Python forever, the... Read More learning platform is super easy.

When looking for an online learning program in data science, I looked at several other programs such as DataCamp, Udemy, Codecademy, and Dataquest. I read a lot of reviews before making the final committing. I signed a free course in SQL course with Dataquest.... Read More I am a non-native of English so reading text on the screen was more appealing to me. I did the same thing with other sites but felt Dataquest was more personally appropriate one for me. That's why I chose Dataquest as my online learning platform for Data Science.

For me there is no Cons about using this program. I see their module as a great learning field, teaching you just like High school. It's the most easy-to-use interface for learning I have seen so far. It makes you want to study more, research and build... Read More yourself better. I recommend this for all.

I liked very much the way of course is teached. Explanations are very clear, pictures are very helpful and examples to learn are good. I am very enthusiastic to keep learning, however the cost could be a problem at this moment. I am checking what it is... Read More possible to do to apply for course.

Good for fundamental knowledge of data science and data scientists. Excellent quality content! It's a great introductory course that really gets you interested in Data Science. I would highly recommend it to anyone curious about learning what Data Science... Read More is about.

With Dataquest Team, I was able to understand what I was looking for! Learn about Python the best way, strive for a new career, and level me up, although being from outside US. I guess that now I got the chance to learn with the best, and in a very didactic... Read More way.

I really enjoyed the Dataquest content, starting from the very basics up to intro to ML. I am a bit disappointed that the ML content did not go further, ie deep learning. Overall while this course is designated as "Data Scientist" its still more of a... Read More data analyst focus with a heavy emphasis on data cleaning and visualization. However, the biggest issue with this course is the pricing model. Big $$$ to get access to the full course content, which I have no problem with as an investment in education, but instead, the issue is you are not "buying" the content you are merely renting it. After going through a large portion of the course in the first 12 months, I wanted to revisit some key topics for a project I was working on, but was unable to without paying $$$ again for the same content! Why would I want to pay again? and again? Customer support on this issue has been non-existent, and based on the forum activity they appear short-staffed. Focusing on the subscription model seems to be a priority for them that unfortunately is a disaster for students which is a shame.

Dataquest is an ideal start for any student as it is flexible, understandable , practical, simple, and has a good support system. The projects are fun. The con will be the affordability criteria since most students are not earning including myself, if... Read More the prices are lower, it’ll be better.
