Easy to follow and not boring. The instructor breaks things down in simple form. The Coursera platform is sometimes a bit quirky but otherwise the content in this course I thought was quite excellent.

Great introduction to Python and programming as a whole. Everything is broken down making it easy to understand. Had zero programming experience before and this class made it easy and fun to get into.

Very Good Material for the beginners.

For person who already has experience on other languages, it could also be useful to do a quick review.

A really good course for beginners to programming and python. But I would not recommend it for people who already know a bit of programming.
