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.

I think the teacher is very good. He did not let see a lot of boring or over-complex codes, but he taught me how to organize my own code.

Excellent for introducing someone to programming in Python. In my case it was easiest to move from a language like C/C++ to learn Python.
