He was indeed very skilled, knowledgeable and passionate in the data science realm. I was impressed with his business know-how (how the world economy works and how all things can be explain with data, with/without bias) and technical skills in converting data into insights. I will not hesitate to recommend Tarun for any data science related training as I would like to attend more classes myself to learn from the best of the best.

I attended one of Tarun's Data Science course in Jakarta (CDSS). He was a professional trainer & very knowledgeable in Data Science. In his course, Tarun gave many practical examples & valuable information regarding how to conduct Data Science & it's related components (e.g. Software & Deployment Architecture). In addition to those lessons, he also gave very useful insights on building a career as a Data Scientist.

Training with Tarun has been awesome. He’s super knowledgable, funny, empathetic and a great educator in general. As someone who didn’t come from a computer science background, his teachings didn’t make me feel stupid or impossible to eventually arrive at being a competent developer. I could understand him as he communicates well & has helped me see the big picture of the computer science field beyond the scope of syntaxes. If you similarly did not come from a CS background and hope to transition into the world of programming but struggle to learn on your own, understand all the foreign & abstract concepts and connect the dots, I think the right person to guide you on your journey would make a big difference. Having someone who’s deep in the field with many years of experience narrow and communicate the relevant areas to focus would also close a big gap from having to struggle and figure out a lot of things on your own. Being able to maintain your interest during your learning journey is important too, thus finding that someone is important. All in all, I would wholeheartedly recommend Tarun and the backend course I took.
