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.

Excellent, although, even without having any programming experience except some Visual Basic at school about ten years ago, in my opinion the course could have bee more difficult and the pace quicker.

Es de los mejores cursos de python que he tomado, actualmente ya tenía bastantes nociones sobre Python, pero el profesor Chuck tiene una forma de explicar las cosas que ayudan bastante a comprender la lógica detrás de la programación

This is a good course for the new programmer who is interested in Python, the teacher did not just flood the student's head using syntaxes, variables, and functions but the easiest way to enter the area, the teacher is lovely too.

One of the best courses that can help you out on how to start learning python and also on how to help others learn python. Will definitely suggest this course to few interested people to help them out achieve their goals and targets.

Great course overall. The video-lessons where clear and didactic and the excercises difficult enough to help me assimilate every piece of knowledge. A great teacher also. He made the lessons really easy to follow. I highly recommend.

Easy-to-comprehend. By far the best course on python that I have encountered! All I needed was to know the meaning of every component in the code and reason behind every execution which was beautifully illustrated! Thank you so much!

Was good, if you want to succed in any area remember it's good make your own research and be hungry with the knowledge because programming is about that you need to research for a lot information tutorials, videos and forums to learn

Professor Chuck is just wonderful, enjoying and explains with his own ideas which are actually good. One thing that I am not satisfied is with the pace of the course, it's just opinion or probably due to my early knowledge in python.

I recommend you guys who are new to coding. Especially if you are a foreigner who cannot speak English. The professor's pronunciation is very accurate. Subtitles and audible words are sufficient to understand. Don't worry. Go for it.

Very good course for beginners as well as for the guys with experience in programming. As experienced developer passed the course in two days. However I learned lot of new things. Good balance between watching videos and programming.

The teaching methodology was superb!!

It worth spending time in his lecture.Hope to have some advance study soon in Python which shall be freely available to learners who keen to learn something new but cannot afford the tuition fee.
