Introduction

Purpose of this blog is to let you learn Excel an easier way to learn Microsoft Excel. This course is not a replacement of reading an over three hundred pages book, spending hours watching YouTube or spending hundreds on a course. This blog is rather just to clarify some of the things that sometimes people find confusing in other methods of learning. I hope you will find this blog useful and have better understanding of how to use the program. Enjoy!
