Profesor extremadamente ameno, explica todo con una cuota de humor y te introduce en un tema árido como es la programación de manera entretenida y muy académica al mismo tiempo.

Good introduction, peppered with interesting interviews of people who initiated something new in the Open Source world. And a lecturer who has humour. It was fun to participate.

It was an excellent class; I learned more than I expected and believe I understand how the Python code works; as I continue coding, I will learn even more. Thank you very much.

I would love some more worked examples to feel a little more confident doing scripts on my own. But the material that was presented was very good. I appreciate the auto-grader!

Dr Chuck is by far the best Python/coding teacher I have learned from. I have taken two python classes in two different colleges.

Best, fastest, way to learn python and coding.

It's a nice course for beginners, if you need some help you can go to the free book "Python for Everybody" and the external tool is great if you don't have a computer or laptop
