The lesson my teacher could not tell in 3 weeks made me understand in less than 5 minutes :)

Joshua, I have to tell you buddy, you are one of the best instructors on the internet (or probably anywhere). I don't mind admitting that I am a 68 year old senior citizen who, for reasons not really known to me, decided to go back to school for my MBA after I retired. The last time I attended a college class before this undertaking, was in 1973 when I got my undergrad degree. It has been difficult and, because I don't have a lot of time to waste, I am taking 12 credit a semester. Quantitative Methods has been the biggest challenge for me so far but your videos have been a Godsend. I don't know if you are teaching at a university but, you damn sure should be. It's not only the way you explain things, but also the tone of your voice and the fact that you really sound happy explaining this stuff. Keep up the fantastic work and I will echo many other comments on your page here. You are the best !!

it has been 5 years since the video was created and it is still helping people! I just need to understand the logic behind calculating the error!!!

I watched this video 4 years ago in my Bachelor Decision Sciences class and now I'm back during my Master's work because the topic is explained here in 5 minutes better than my $230 textbook!

Thanks for smoothing that out for me :)

LOL. My professor kept talking for more than an hour and I could not understand. I came here and understood what ES is in less than 5 minutes. THANKS, A LOT!

This dude is a 🐐 i learned more in this video than 2 weeks of my teacher trying to explain this to me

Am I the only one hearing him say fuckass when he actually said forecast

spent at least 30 mins understanding and researching about how to do this and you just explained it so easily in less than 5 mins.

I wish teachers would take an example of you. Amazing and simply put explanation.

Thank you soooo much for making these problems so much more simpler to solve. I tried watching many videos, tried step by step practice problems, and even asked tutors for help but none of these are effective as your teaching method!! Cheers!!

I just want to say thank you again, it beats me that there is a straightforward way of doing this, yet we were taught the more cumbersome one. God bless you!

Fast, simple, and super useful. This is a homework saver, thank you.

I made the mistake of trying to watch my professor's online lecture over and over again for a week. I wish I'd come here sooner, this cleared it up in 5 minutes!

Thanks, Joshua. This video was God-sent. You are a great and effective teacher... even five years later! God bless you always.

This Dude deserves a medal..!!! Thanks man that really helped a Lot

Your explanation of this subject far exceeds that of the textbook I am using for my class. Thank you for taking the time to produce this exceptional video.

Thank you so much for making these videos they were extremely helpful!!! You were able to teach me in 5 minutes what my professor couldn't teach me in a month!!!

watched the first lecture from my professor today and couldn't grasp the concept completely. After watching your video I feel like an expert now :)

Your explanation is so straight forward and simple to understand. Thank you for this.

man you are the best ! your videos helped me a lot ! its my stats exam tomorrow and i knew nothing about forecasting, correlation and hypothesis and ur the only one who has good videos here ! thanks alot !

Short, precisive, insightful and straight to the point. Thank you Joshua

Wow, you made this exponentially easier to understand. Thank you, Professor!

Believe it or not but my lecturer made this sound like rocket science. Thank you for making an easy to understand video.

You saved my life i am so grateful. i failed this course and your videos helped pass THANK YOU

I would rather my school pays you than my lousy professor, you have taught me more in 15 minutes (3 videos) than my teacher could in two 70 minute classes

You explained this with so much clarity . I got it !!!😊😊You are awesome.

👏👏👏well done! I always look for your videos when my professor gives me any tasks🌹 clear, bold, and easy to understand as usual 🙏

Thank you so much for your help! Spent an hour and a half lecture on this not understanding what you taught me in 5 mins.

Thank you! Thank you! I am currently struggling in an MBA Business Analytics class and this video has helped me so much. Our professor just reads right from the text book and does not walk through any examples.

Hi Joshua, I'm here to thank you so much for your special video, if it wasn't for your video I would fail my Operation Management, class. You make operation management course feel easy, I can assure you, I don't understand my professor but your video was my savior through this class. Oh well, I pass with B+ and I give you all credit for that. Thank you so much.

Excellent! Thank you. Well described and easy to understand. Saved me lots of time.

Thanks a lot. It helped me understand what exactly is exponential smoothing that tableau must have used for forecasting. I was searching for its answer for quite some time and found it here.

Here in 2024! Thanks for sharing such as great content.

Thank you so much, I can only learn this stuff by your videos! Thank you for making these videos, some people really need this.

Wow this is made my homework so much easier! Thank you very much for your clear explanation!

Very nice to have grip on basics of SES.

so smooth that was, and your soothing voice does help. Thank You

You really saved me on this exam I have tomorrow!

Wow crispy clear and make it sounds so simple to understand

this was so easy to understand omg thank you for sharing such info!

This is a very fine tutorial! The only thing that could have been noted is the process of selecting the alfa value. but all in all, fantastic job. subscribed!

The best way to forecast the first period is to take the average of the time series: 39+44+40+45+38+43+39 = 41. In so doing the forecast is more sensitive to the actual sales. Which you verify by plotting both the forecast using the first period as 41 and one demonstrated in the video, you will see that using the one in the video your sales forecast will lag behind your actual sales value.

i failed my long exam thinking this is hard. after watching this, i realized it was actually pretty easy.

You just made me pass my midterm, thank you!

Great explanation Mr. Joshua!

you deserve everything

That's really helpful! Thank you! But I still have a question. How did you get alpha? Is it just the ordinary intercept? Or another parameter?

Eh eh my brother, you have helped me out a lot, I used the formula for my coursework at university, you got a po box? I wanna send you a gift still!

That was a really clear and easy to understand explanation. Thanks!

You're videos are the best

Ur videos are always so helpful!!! Thank you!

its very helpful for me to solve all the questions among the smoothing......thank you

thank you so much for your simple explanation.. plz do video on exponential smoothing with trend adjustment

Thank you so much! You are talented at teaching this helped me tremendously.

Wow thx really help! Greeting from indonesia 🇮🇩

Thank you so much. You made it much easier.

why did you use Alph = 0.2 is using α=0.2 that mean the certainty of events =0.8 ?

Thank you so much for explaining so well.

This is so so good. Thanks a lot, sir.

holy fuck im gonna cry i finally got the answer i needed of course i still have my assignment to finish in less than two hours and i havent even learned the rest of it but hell this shit took me hours, fuck i should have came here sooner god my teacher fucking sucks, bless her soul but she's not a great teacher

Thank you so much! This was very simple to understand

I am a big fan... god bless

He knows deh wae... in wheech dae values will mueve.

Excellent!! detailed, quick and clear.. Thank you very much!

My business class mention about this topic and didn't tell me how to do it, only mention it's harder than simple moving average.

What is the significance of Mean Square Error? Is it need to be less than a threshold to validate the forecasting? If yes, how to find the threshold?

you way better than my professor..
