    I loved the practices. I learned alot But I think some of them had mistakes... The online visual studio code never worked for me! It might be good to make a video that explains how to work with it.

    Exactly what I signed up for. Basic understanding and syntax learning. For anyone looking to further their sql writing, I believe this course and the rest of the curriculum will do perfectly fine

    this was more challenging than I expected, the assignments will definitely make you think. A good intro to SQL. If you have no background reading the supplementary articles will be very helpful

    Great course! I had zero experience in SQL and I´ve learnt a lot of useful things. The final project of the course was very interesting. Looking forward to the other courses in the specialization

    A concise and straight to the point course on the basics of SQL. I would go on and argue that this is a better starting point for learning SQL as compared to the other courses here on Coursera.

    The instructor was awesome, whatever she taught was enough to do the assignment. I fell in love with her way of teaching, and now I will also do UC Davis specialization. Assignments were good.

    I've taken a couple SQL courses elsewhere and none of them held my attention long enough to fully dive in and learn. This course is very good at forcing you to apply the skills you learned.
