Really good explanation by the instructor. Good assignments. The assignments gave a good insights into functional programming. I loved the way the problems were decomposed into neat smaller functions.

It took me much longer than expected to finish the course and sometimes it made me feel stupid and helpless. Diving into functional programming was a mind bending experience, totally worth time spent!

A challenging course of the highest quality. Martin Odersky does his best at sharing key insights about the way Scala works and how to think functionally.

Mr Odersky attitude is very "Swiss" –pragmatic but extremely rigorous. I had no previous knowledge, and can now play with Scala in a satisfactory way...

Great tour of functional programming features. Only slight improvement I would suggest is to give some more practice making functions tail-recursive.

Excellente introduction à Scala, Martin est très pédagogue dans ses vidéos. Qui de mieux que le créateur du langage lui-même pour vous l'apprendre ?

Nice to hear teacher, passionate about the language he invented, and (a bit surprisingly, due to the complexity of the subject) easy to understand

Excellent course. It's good to already know how to program in some C-like language before you start, as the exercises are reasonably challenging.
