You saved my PhD analysis; May God bless you forever

In year 4 of 5 of my PhD. Multiple Regression Class is KILLING me! I found your videos as I am trying to increase my conceptual understanding of some of the information that is foundational to what we are doing now. I swear your positive words made me cry! Wish I had found you earlier! Thank you for showing me that there are good stats teachers on the planet, you are a rare breed!

Brandon, your kind words of encouragement are absolutely awesome and heartfelt. Thank you so much!

I was struggling with the concepts of covariance and correlation, reading textbooks and papers where they just assume you knew, but now that I saw your last three videos of this list I can finally get them and move on to other material. Thank you!

You’re comment at the beginning like the pep talks just made my whole day , I had such much test anxiety and hearing that is exactly what I needed. You’re the best! Thank you for making a positive impact ! I’m going to ace my test now

I'm glad I found you! I'm doing an online class and was told to "google" the information I didn't understand...which is practically everything.

The introductory motivational talk is really what I needed right now. I haven’t even started watching the rest of the video and I already appreciate it so much.

I posted your channel in a group for people who study data analysis in Egypt, and reactions were very positive , thank you so much

You are such a great teacher , have recommended you to my classmates and Professor in Health care MBA studying data analytics and decision making, your videos are definitely one of the best in this particular subject, thanks again

O my goodness...the first couple comments of your video has me in tears....Thank you for the reminder. I needed it tonight!

Brandon, I cannot tell you how helpful it is to have the underlying concepts explained so simply and clearly. I use statistics a lot for work, but have not had a formal class in it save for the graduate version of mathematical statistics. I understood the math, but what I was computing, I hadn't a clue. This clarifies everything. Bravo!

Dude, thank you for the lesson! And for the encouraging words at the beginning of the video. Cheers!

you do it really well!! thank you, your set of videos on variance covariance and correlation have so far cleared my understanding the most, providing everything from definition to inutition to examples and the notion to look at scatter plots first. Thank you very much for making! :)

I just purchased the whole pdf companion guide because you're a fantastic explainer who understands how to communicate the connections between abstract concepts, analysis, and interpretation. Never stop teaching. Never.

Youy did a better job explaining correlation in 30min than my professor did in 1hour of class. GOD BLESS YOU!!!!!!! Love these videos. Ur a LIFESAVER!!!

Thank you for creating this video. As a college freshman that is starting college after 28 years of being out of any form of formal education, your videos have made it easier to understand and "get through" my statistics class.

The world needs teachers like you, you're the best math teacher I've ever had.

Thank you so much for making these videos. They are really helpful! My lecturer doesn't actually say anything in our statics module lectures, we just have to read off of a poorly worded word document. Your videos are actually making statistics understandable! Thank you so much!

you have such a natural knack for teaching, I swear I learn more from you in 27 min then I have from my prof all semester! Seriously god bless x

I've been watching tons of your videos lately since I'm preparing for my statistics final... Your videos and examples make it a lot more fun than I expected it to be! Thank you for dedicating so much time and thought to these, it's incredibly appreciated. The encouragement at the beginning of each video always keeps me going :)

This video was not only informative in helping me understand correlation concepts but it was also very encouraging as I'm struggling with a research and stats class having never taken a research or stats class before. Your encouraging comments at the beginning and end do not go unnoticed or unappreciated. Thanks so much!

The pep talk I didn't know I needed. I do heavy stats in my PhD and I have never had a stats class. You're a life saver.

Brandon Foltz I have no words for describing your work., A Big Thank you and gratitude for your all work.

I was just not understanding the textbook for my statistics class and could not get a good grasp on the concepts I was attempting to learn. After a long history of excellent grades and knowing I was pushing myself to exceed to the best of my ability, I was extremely affected and stressed over the possibility of failing the class. Your videos have really helped me fit the information together in a way that I was just not capable of doing on my own. The laymen explanations, the relatable examples and the positive reinforcement that we as students are doing great really encouraged me to continue pushing through! As of right now, I am maintaining a 96 in the class with only one assignment and one paper left to go (which brought me back to your correlation and regression videos)! Thank you for taking your time to help others succeed and I would definitely keep your intros!

Talented educator with superior teaching skills. Watching this video in 2021 and finding your tutorial to be just as relevant and helpful in understanding statistics 101. Thank you!!!

The best explanations in the concepts I have seen on KZfaq, and I've looked at quite a few.

this is both a revision and learning something new. Keep the talks coming. Grateful to you.

Thank you for the tutorial. Great encouraging words also, I was a struggling student today, then the light went on.

Your classes are always very helpful! Thank you, Brandon!

Great job! You have a real talent for giving clear explanations! Thanks.

I deeply appreciate the two messages at the beginning of the video. Very encouraging. Thank you.

Great video, slow enough to take notes while also quick enough not to take too much time!

You are such a great teacher!! Thank you for your uplifting words, I now have the motivation to study for my exam :)

Brandon, thank you for this video "Understanding Correlation". You're right, for someone like me, a beginner in Statistics, you presented the information a such a simple and concise way that it was easy for me to "correlate" and understand. Thanks again.

I've always hated math & currently struggling in a stats class. Your encouragement in the beginning really gave me a boost

Hey Brandon, you are an awesome teacher...the best for advance stats beginners. Teaching/instructions style and approach is key for learners in my opinion. Because of my initial challenges with stats courses, i seriously gave thought about doing research on working memory and cognitive load theory around stats teaching/learning at the graduate level. I found that that teaching/instruction style was key for me, key to understanding/learning...I would blame myself and wondered if I had a math disability but this wasn't the case once I connected with the right teacher and found a rhythm and way of learning stats. I love the way you combine instruction with visuals, and you keep language simple/basic. You are a God send. Wish I would've discovered you two years ago. I've been watching your videos over the past day and a half. YOU ROCK! This semester will be my first semester, at year 4 of my PhD program, walking into a stats class confident and ready, and actually excited about the course.

I'm taking a masters degree in Data Science and Big Data, I have a Computer Science background, and there are terms or concepts that were long forgotten and I'm struggling with everything related to statistics. I just found your videos and I've watched so far a couple of them. I cannot thank you enough for putting all this together and giving me the foundation I needed to continue with my masters. I appreciate you take the time for sharing your knowledge with this community and your positive words make a real impact.

Love the quotes you use at the beginning of videos + your words of encouragement for learners.

Hello Brandon, thank you so much for your videos, they are so helpful and really easy to follow ! I appreciate the time you gave us and your efforts and thank you for being supportive and encouraging ! Have a great day

Mr Foltz - you are an amazing educator! I have done courses on statistics in my younger days, but I am going to view all you videos as a refresher! Thanks so much for your time and effort.

Aw I have an exam tomorrow that’s really been giving me such anxiety and I almost cried during your introductory pep talk. Thank you for your content! This is my second video of yours I’m watching and I’m starting to feel more comfortable with correlation and residuals.

Thanks for being an excellent teacher and telling me to believe in myself!

Hi Monique! I am very impressed that you are taking the proactive steps to prepare for the fall semester in April. You should give yourself a large pat on the back for that. Remember there is no need to get overly worked up over the math of stats. IMHO the real important part of stats is understanding the concept behind what you are doing and then the interpretation. You can do it! All the best, B.

ugh, I wish I discovered this channel like...10 months ago when I had my econometrics class, it would've been a lifesaver. This will help a lot of those who have advance statistics or econometrics. I would recommend though you apply them using SPSS that way you'd help us research student understand more about it. I have a question if you please can answer me, it is related to regression and correlation. so I know that we have to have a high r-square in the regression to show a strong relationship. when I'm running simple linear regression the r-square is negligible (0.17) it is so low also pearson correlation is low at 0.4.I can understand that other factors could contribute to the effect other than this one and that is what I will say when I defend my thesis, but the thing is I came across something that says if your purpose is to predict then you have to have a high r-square. Considering my research question "does workplace bullying predict employees' intention to leave" will this affect negatively my thesis? should I change the 'predict' into 'affect' so no misunderstanding or problems arise when I discuss my results? second: workplace bullying is divided into three groups, does that mean I should use multiple regression instead of linear? I used linear because it is 1 independent variable in the main research question. I did a linear regression for the three groups separately. Thank you in advance!

Seriously, please don't stop making these videos. I know this came out in like 2013 but seriously, thank you thank you thank you.

YOU DESERVE CONGRATULATIONS AND MANY THANK FOR MAKING ME LOVE STATISTICS AND HAVE HOPE TO FINISH MY MSC.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE PEP TALK AT THE BEGINNING. You are so kind. I seriously was thinking of dropping this class... but you know what? I have faith in me!

These videos are excellent, thank you! Very nice straight forward structure, and you have an engaging voice, unlike most others I've attempted to watch.

You deserve more subscribers, you're getting me through college!

Thank you so much. Thanks to your explanation, I got a better understanding of what my professor failed to explain well. And also thank you for your encouragement!

Oh thanks so much Amy! It is my great pleasure to help where I can. Just pay it forward as the opportunities come, so the saying goes. All the very best! - B

I learn Parametric and Non-parametric tests from your videos, Best channel for learning statistics.

Thank you so much for all your great videos! Keep adding more! You are helping so many people. Greatly appreciated. :)

You and your hard work are SO appreciated!!!!!!! Thank you!

By the way dear Mr. Brandon you gotta gift of God to teach people. The way you give example and notice about diferrences in between real-life and the theoretical patterns is obviously fantastic! Keep it up.

I loved the positivity in this video. Thank you!

OMG Thank you! I have been failing this lesson for a while now! It helped me a lot :)

Everyone is complaining why didn't I find this channel some months before and so. I won't do that . I have exam due in 40 days and I have been following this channel like since beginning of my preparation ! I believe my exams are going to be good. Thank you Brandon Foltz !

Thank you for the motivation, I really needed it. Your video helped me and I did get a better understanding of covariance and correlation.

Thank you sooooo much! I now have a better understanding of correlation. Your video is a great resource for me. I plan to view all of the others.

Excellent video, crisp, clear and easy to follow. Thank you!

Thank you so much. I'm taking statistics and my major is public relations. Needless to say I am completely lost and this is very helpful! I go to school online so all I have is a book to go on and it's great to have someone explain this to me

Hi Sir, With all due respect, let me thank you for having cleared confusions of my mind on the terms: Covariance, correlation. Please do create such videos with more topics and help us. May the god bless you for your good deed. Thank you, Maneesh Mohan.

i like how you start your video and end off with encouragement ! very well explained, thanks Brandon !

I always admire terrific teachers! You sir, are among them. Please do continue making videos, both introductory and more challenging.

Hi Brandon. Thank you so much. My Stats lecturer demonstrates, let us say, a less than perfect correlation between her assumed knowledge and the necessary paedagogics involved. I am glad that I found your lectures and actually enjoy the topics for the first time ever. Considering that I am a relative dinosaur and have some ancient doctorate to my name, that speaks for itself and for you. Diolch yn fawr

This is the 5th video I have watched. I really admire the simplicity of teaching these topics.

Thank you sooooo much, please keep uploading such videos. You explained correlations in a more coherent manner than our lecturer. I LOVE YOU.

One of the best explanations ever seen...thank you dear Brandon

Thank you so much. I been struggle, so this video really helped me. Thank you for the support as well. I needed a little push of support.

Thanks so much for these videos!!!!! You took the mystery out of learning statistics. I am using these videos for learning data science which is helping me a great deal :)

stat was killing me as i was not intrested to learn it..meanwhile i found ur video that has boost my intrest on stat..thanku so much..u deserves lots of respect.

Thank you so much, this was so helpful to my Statistics finals. We appreciate your efforts

@abhi124s Fantastic! Thank you for your comment. I am thinking about doing some Statistical Quality Control videos in the future so I am glad you are able to apply them to your QA work. Best of luck on your ASQ Black Belt certification! Best, B.

And once again, your lecture helped me a lot. Thank you very much!!

You are not only a teacher but a healer too.

Thank you very, very much! It is very easy to understand statistics from your videos!

Thanks Brandon Foltz for this incredible video, it has helped me a lot with study.

I want to thank you for helping me to pass my statistics course.Your videos are very helping to students.

It's 2021 and you are still the best

10/10 Brandon, content and pacing are stellar

The opening of this video hits different in times like these thank you!

Now I got it why I always will need at least have an eye on my data scatterplot: If the scatterplot of the data does not bear resemblance to a linear shape itself that means it is not applicable for correlation concept being applied onto bivariate data! Love it!

I actually think I can pass my stats exam now. Thank you so much, I wish you were my lecturer.

Thanks for this. I had a test on correlation that I didn't do so well on and I didn't understand it when my teacher explained it to me, this really cleared things up.

WOW, YOU ARE A REALLY GREAT TEACHER I EVER !!!!! slides are really clear, and explanation was perfect for everything! Thanks again

Thanks very much for this informative video. I'm in a doctoral program right now and really needed the review of stats.

Your videos are the best. Thank you so much!

Professor, It's explained lucidly. Suggestion: Pls. give a small question at the end for practice. Thanks

Great Video, Thank you so much Mr. Folts

Thank you so much, pls keep making videos, you are very helpful and very good at explaining! So happy I found you!

Thank you so very much. This video has helped me a lot. I will be looking for more of your videos.

Again a great video. So many thanks Brandon!

Thank you! I hope you will continue your work for many years to come 🙂

Very special thank's to you Prof.Brandon..

Amazing Videos about Stats....Simply crystal clear about foundations....very helpful...Big Thank You...Brandon

Thank you for posting this video, it really helped me.

U saved my life. thanks ... very clear explanations

Thanks for explaining these concepts so well. The quality of your work is exceptional.

Very clear explanation! Thanks so much.
