Dan was an excellent instructor—well-organized, patient, and thoughtful in his teaching approach. I especially appreciated how he broke down the reasoning behind SQL code in a way that was both clear and practical. Rather than simply having us memorize lines of code, he focused on helping us truly understand the concepts and develop a problem-solving mindset. His approach made the learning experience much more meaningful and effective.

I learned more than I expected and am impressed by the live online training course. Jeannette was extremely knowledgeable. She took time to explain everything while constantly encouraging us to ask questions.

Genghis was AMAZING. He was so clear in his explanations, and especially helpful if you had a specific question. I am in an online bootcamp now and his instruction was fantastic and helped me tremendously. Great format to offer practice SQL exercises, and then review with the instructor.
