    As a graduate student and analyzing data for my dissertation, this video series was a matter of reviewing previous learning. It has been some twenty years since my last statistics course. The example used consistently assisted in substituting data effectively. The narration with explicit explanation was highly simplified and assisted in retaining new learning. You are much better than any of my college professors. Thank you for helping me to write my Chapters 4 and 5!

    Mr. Brandon , you are one of the best statistics teachers that I encountered in youtube videos! I had to read 20 pages of a chapter to understand this concept, but couldn't understand it. You explained regression model so simple way that a middle school math kid understand it. Tks.

    I appreciate your consistency in using the same example throughout. This approach provides a valuable opportunity for students to reinforce their understanding by revisiting familiar material. It strengthens the connection between previous lessons and the current one, facilitating a deeper comprehension of the subject matter. Thank you for maintaining this continuity; it greatly enhances the learning experience.

I truly appreciate this and made a purchase of your stuff although I understood everything from these videos because people like you, they deserve the money we pay for otherwise mediocre services elsewhere.

    You're very good. It's just not just that you explain well, slow, and deliberate, but little things. I'm writing this comment paused on the screen where you color-coded the deviation calculations and that was so clutch, especially for a visual learner such as myself. Really want to thank you for these videos. You're a great teacher.

    I've looked at many, many online stats lectures. Most of them are a pseudo-coherent jumbled mess. It is often difficult to determine if the subject matter is the focus or the presenter. And that is being kind. Brandon's videos are organized, orderly, coherent, comprehensive, and there is no question that the material, and your understanding of it, is his overarching focus. It is the clear difference between amateurs and a professional.

    Hi, Brandon. Thanks for your videos. I have my degree in mathematics, however, it's been a good 20 years since I've had a stats class.this was an excellent refresher for me. Information was very relevant without it being overly simplistic. (I also watch them at 1.25 because I'm hardcore like that!) I have a suggestion for multiple part series videos. Adding an annotation with a link to skip the introduction helps to reduce the guess work, redundancy and some time for those who have the attention span to binge watch. ;) Thank you!
