As a software dev looking to learn analytics this course was mostly just someone going through all the options and reading them out. Not that useful as I could have done that myself. What I needed was clear, concise definitions of the subject jargon for someone new to analytics.

Barbara certainly knows Analytics and Looker Studio well as she answered my question perfectly. Even logged into my Analytics and Looker Studio to check why it wasn't working.
