The course material was fairly clear and easy to follow. I, personally, had a few issues using the jupyter notebook in the final assessment, as I hadn't worked out how to get the notebooks to give informative debug messages. I think a bit of a manpage or help text about what the WordCloud module routines require as inpute and give as outputs might be useful.

Мне понравился этот курс. Но я уже немного знал Python. Если бы не знал, то было бы сильно тяжелее его освоить. Остались вопросы по ООП, но это была дополнительная тема и в зачет она не шла, как я понял.

Не могу не отметить реально крутую подачу материала. Google очень постарался.

Понравилось, что задания похожи на настоящие задачи, которые решают сисадмины.

Course was good. Explanation of concepts and examples was good. The exercises got a little lost in the weeds at times though; which is to say, I spent more time trying to figure out what I was supposed to do rather than how to do it. That to me says, the exercises could use some refinement, which is the reason for losing 1 star in the review (4 star review)

The Instructor is one of the best few tutors that are amazing and good at what they do. In all my life i have meet lots of tutors and she is the third tutors that i will say best in all my tutors.

She is really amazing and made the all course very interesting and fun to study. Never a dull moment nor did i ever fell asleep while she was teaching.

She is A++

I really enjoyed the course. The instructor in the videos did an outstanding job explaining concepts. I also like how she inspired confidence by stating it was OK if you didn't understand certain concepts right away. I think that's an important piece that is often times left out, especially for folks highly critical on themselves. Thanks for the course!

I think this is a great course, definitely going to continue on. The missing star is only because I wish there was more practice involved with each new concept and video. I had to find other resources to help me learn, but other than that I would really recommend this to other people who would like to learn to program. Thanks for beginning my journey!

I really learned a lot in this course and I feel that the pace is also good. The main problems that would have pushed me to the 5 start range were that there weren't many options for practicing my lessons and when there was technical difficulty, the discussion forums were of little help. Other than that, I was very happy with the results.

It was a very enjoyable course. The organization of the course make python more accessible for beginners that are not even from the IT field. It remains sometimes frustrating when the exercice is a level higher than the course. Maybe more exercices that become gradually more difficult for the same topic might help more. ++ for the Teacher

Very well scripted and presented in a natural an interesting/funny way. A bit too little actual hands-on tho. Much more like "watch me do it. wohoo, you did it!" All in all coursera courses seem to be rather more like a well structured tutorial on youtube with readings in between, than actual HANDS-ON interactive labs work. :-/

O curso é desafiador e ensina os conceitos básicos de programação , nos levando a desenvolver nossos próprios códigos. Alguns exercícios são mais difíceis do que a teoria proposta, porém o nível mais elevado faz com que nos dediquemos mais ao conteúdo. É necessário fazer uma leitura complementar para conseguir acompanhar o curso.

Mostly good for programming beginners. Some of the weekly tests had vague questions (ie: the one about counting birds did not state that there should be more than zero birds). Way too much mathematics, rather than objects, in the beginning weeks making it difficult for non-visual learners to understand how to resolve the issues.

Had great learning through explanatory videos and lots of good reading materials. The practice quizzes and lab guides were super helpful in adding to the theory knowledge gained through the course. Now, I feel confident to dive into the world of programming using Python and learn more complex and diverse topics around it.

The course was a best experience, very good to begin with. It has good practical exercises for one getting dirty hands on and very interactive. I would still prefer it to be a bit slower for one to be able to consume the much detailed content. Otherwise for all other study content and professional delivery was amaizing.

Valuable course for someone who has worked with python little bit . Otherwise for beginners need to do lot of homework for each week to understand the concept. It's a crash course and the name implies everything.

Suggestion: It would be nice if there is more practical quiz even if the course extend by another one week.

A bit hard for a beginner, or at least someone with bad logic. Could start with the University of Michigan's course "python for beginners", that one is slower and easier to understand with less coursework. Otherwise, it was fun to run through the assignments and realize what you don't know. In my case, it was a lot.

It looked like the course has been modified a few times for error correction and accuracy. Some in video exercises do not correlate to the video lectures. But I guess part of learning how to code is to learn how to look up different resources to help you figure out concepts you don't know. It is a good basic course.

well thought out course for those who want to enter the world of python, but there are a lot of concepts that are not teached in there, maybe they are not ideal for beginners, but since you see then in some examples and exercise already applied there, it would be nice to have a little explanation about them.

This course helps in covering the basics that is required for coding skills in python. The exercises might be a bit testing, especially for individuals who are just learning programming. However, if one grinds through its content, it is super fun and helps you develop your analytical and critical thinking.

Great course for the most part, but the last module is not very well explained and even misinforms about Object Oriented Programming by marking that section as Optional. But, last few coding exercises and quiz were all about oop. Last "Reading in Action" and "lab" were too completed to grasp for a novice.

Everything was awesome..right fro instructor to Practice exercises, but the last graded assignment, the Final Project had some technical issues in it, so one star less, but I would love to thank Google for such an amazing course! helped a lot!! Hoping to complete this Google IT Automation with Python soon

This was a great way to learn a lot in Python. The only improvement I would make is that the tests will have problems that seem to jump a step between what is taught and applying. It would be better if the tests were taught the same way as the final project so that you can see how it is applied better.

Not a bad starting course. The final project was very weak though, Just a one basic function that can be completed in 3 minutes. The weekly assignments were more interseting. I wish if there is a pdf to download at the end of the course with all the points, examples & tricks that have been discussed.

It is a good course for beginners in Python but not the best for beginners in programming! I had knowledge about other programming languages so I was comfortable throughout it. Although, had it been my first course in programming, I would have faced lot of problems. But overall, I enjoyed the course!

It's a great course for beginners. The basics of python are very interesting and very vast, of which the most important concepts are covered here. This course requires a lot of self-study to make yourself fluent in the language. Going through the documentation is a must alongside the course material.

Amazing course! One of the best...

The only thing: it would be great adding more problem solving, exercises, and a more complete Final Project that uses everything learned and that is more useful and realistic.

For example, I think that the Harvard's CS50p, as introduction in Python, is more complete.
