I started using R in 2012 for my job as a data analyst and have used it almost every single day since. I can help with just about anything, but I'm particularly strong with the following:
- base R
- data.table
- ggplot2
- vectorization and "apply" functions
- general data analysis

I've used Python on a number of data science projects. I'm particularly fond of NumPy, Pandas, and scikit-learn.

Benjamin was very clear and efficient. He really quickly understood the problem, found a way forward and helped me with implementation.

Ben is a good teacher and I learned a ton! I like how he teaches on teaching the principles and fundamentals and how that is relevant to mastering a python library like Numpy or Pandas

Ben really knows what he's talking about! He broke very challenging concepts clearly and concisely. I definitely would recommend him!

Benjamin was very helpful and easy to understand/follow. He was very understanding of my lack of R skills and made me feel comfortable with my questions!

Yeah, Great experience. He was able to figure out exactly the instruction I was after and even showed me quite a few neat tricks that I hadn't seen before. Would definitely recommend this service.
