Mark provided a thorough explanation of the course content. The course was a great introduction to SQL and I feel a lot more confident now working in that space in my role. I am looking forward to the advanced course in a couple of months.

"Christopher is incredibly patient when teaching in the class, ensuring that every student understands the material thoroughly. As a beginner in SQL and someone not very familiar with databases, I found his teaching style extremely accommodating and beneficial. I would highly recommend attending his class to anyone interested in learning SQL. During the two-day intensive course, I gained a comprehensive understanding of the basic concepts and functions of SQL from scratch. This course is very well-structured, making it easy to grasp complex topics. The hands-on practice sessions in a fully set-up environment were particularly valuable. It provided the opportunity to immediately apply what we learned, which greatly enhanced my understanding and retention of the material. By the end of the course, I felt confident in my ability to use SQL effectively. I'm happy with the progress I made and am looking forward to enrolling in the advanced course later. This experience has been a crucial step in my journey to mastering SQL, and I’m grateful for the chance to learn from such an expert instructor."
