Excellent course! I already knew a lot about R - but this class helped me solidify what I already knew, taught me lots of new tricks, and now I have a certificate that says I know `something' about R!

"R Programming" forces you to dive in deep.

These skills serve as a strong basis for the rest of the data science specialization.

Material is in depth, but presented clearly. Highly recommended!

Good Lessons and exercises. I would have liked introduction to packages like dplyr, but may be that is introduced in other training modules.

The course offers good insight into R programming for beginners. A little more application and examples would make the course even better.

It was quite difficult to study alone and learn by own but I got much help from forum. The mentor was so enthusiastic and really helpful.

Basics of R-programming taught in a systematic manner, including how the code runs. Slides can be shown in a more engaging manner though.

It is a bit difficult for beginners to complete the assignments without any help. And it also takes a lot of time to understand the code.

It could be better with more reading materials about videos contents, information from videos actually not enough for quiz and assignment

challenging course, assignments do not always go hand in hand with what the lessons were about, but I guess that's what google is for.

The weekly exercises/assignments are not supplementary to lectures. Otherwise both, the assignments and lectures are informative.

Basics were taught but I wish it was more advanced to the point that I would feel comfortable doing data analysis in R on my own.

A bit difficult. It would be better if there are a bit more practices between courses and assignments!

Appreciate the professor!
