As an honors engineering student at NCSU with over 3 years of tutoring experience in various subjects, I've had the privilege of implementing creative instructional strategies. These efforts contributed to a 24% increase in students' cumulative SAT scores and a 15% improvement in AP Biology and AP Computer Science scores. I am genuinely dedicated to excelling in a STEM-related field and have been fortunate to be involved in founding and directing the international computer science competition, "OHacksIO," which brought together over 300 participants from six countries.
If you're already comfortable with the basics of Excel but still feel like you're working harder than you should be, Beyond Basics: Microsoft Excel is built for you. This course targets the gap between knowing how to use Excel and knowing how to use it well — covering power features like conditional formatting, flash fill, absolute and relative cell references, and advanced table styling that the average user never discovers on their own. You'll work alongside an expert instructor and a motivated peer group, picking up shortcuts and strategies that translate directly into faster, cleaner, more professional work. Walk away with the Excel fluency that makes a real difference in reporting, analysis, and day-to-day productivity.
