RESEARCH · ANALYSIS · TRAINING

Turning evidence into decisions people can act on.

I am Taiwo Oladokun, founder of Delight Data Exploration. For twelve years I have designed studies, run the analysis, written findings a busy reader can act on, and taught all three to the people who need the skill themselves.

PUBLISHED BOOKS

Two books written from the same twelve years of client work, both available now.

How to Excel at a UK University book cover

How to Excel at a UK University

Think like the marker, write like a master. A guide for Nigerian students.

Every year thousands of Nigerian students arrive at British universities carrying strong grades from home, then collide with a marking system nobody explained to them. This book is the rulebook: how UK marking actually works, why a 62 is good news, and how to win the essay, the dissertation and the defence.

Chapter One: The First Harvest

Thursday 28 May 2026 · Abeokuta · the full DDE team

Twelve years of the practice, and the first full year as a team. Every member presented their own year in their own words: what they shipped, what worked, what was hard, and what they needed next. Performance, growth and honest reflection gathered into one room and one day. The afternoon closed at Olumo Rock.

Go deeper: the evidence dossier

This page is the short version. The dossier is the long one: seven engagements written out in full as the situation, exactly what I did and what came out, the methods and verification behind each, the design and series gallery, and the practice credentials. It is what an institution reads before deciding to hire.
