Overview
Details
My name is Ted Petrou and I am offering an Intro to Data Science Bootcamp with Python in NYC November, 10-18. There is a single week of live classes available either on the weekends or during the week.
Ideal Attendee
This course targets those who are beginning their data science journey. It only assumes that students have a deep desire to learn the fundamentals of data science. No previous programming experience is required
About Me, the Instructor
I am an expert at data exploration and machine learning using Python and the author of Pandas Cookbook, a thorough step-by-step guide to accomplish a variety of data analysis tasks with Pandas. I am ranked in the top .1% of Stack Overflow users of all time. I have taught over 100 days of live data science classes and from experience know exactly where many of the pain points are and which workflows do best when teaching beginners. I have authored the Python data exploration and visualization libraries Dexplo and Dexplot.
I am a very enthusiastic and energetic teacher and am eager to transfer you the skillset to become a data scientist. When students are completing exercises, I will set right next to them, watch them code, help them with their thought process, and catch mistakes.
