Great intro. If you already know the basics, you probably don't need this course though. Not much of a deep dive, more of a "skim the surface" type course. Week 4 on IO was the most beneficial for me.

Very detailed, nice introduction to golang's basic concepts. Might need to google to find better ways to handle some requirements of the assignments, but overall a cool programming language to learn.

A good introduction to Go in a general way. I recommend this course if you would like to learn a new language but not if you don't know any other programming language

Was easy to follow and I like that it assumes you had some programming already. I would like to see maybe more detail on why GO does slices with length and capacity.

This is my very first completed course on Coursera. This was possible because the instructor was great. I recommend this for anyone looking to become familar with Go

I have done other courses on Golang from the internet. However, I was looking for a course with assignments and quizzes and this one was quite useful in that respect

Great Course. Goes over the fundamentals of Go and was easy for me to transition into coming from a Python background. I enjoyed Professor Harris's teaching style.

Great intermediate course that doesn't start at "Hello, World!" Exercises were on point, made me do a little research and got me thinking how to find the answers.

I have learnt C, C++, Java, Python, Node JS. But this one was a refresher and is a great place to start. The professor beautifully explains even the very basics.

Excellent overview of basic Go structures. I am completely new to Go and found the material easily understandable, and the exercises appropriately challenging.

A very good course for students who had previous coding experience so that people can get familiar with go quickly. The homeworks are also well organized.

This course was great! It gave the confindence that even I'm an old engineer, I can learn new tools and keep working in my passion which is programming

Good explanations. Must know other modern languages. Assignments makes you search for more details in order to achieve it which is a very good thing

A very good introduction of the course, the teacher is very clear, there is some type mistake like on the struct declaration but everything is good!

Excelent course, need to know some things before hand and the start is rough if you don't know anything about go, but it's a good course

Its an excellent course, the best I found on coursera. The hands-on experience is excellent to gain confidence on the language.

It's targeted toward intermediate but I found it a little more "beginner". Lecturer is great and the assignments are fun though
