Loved it. I have already had some experience with Python, but this course provided a lot of clarity for me, as well as additional information I never learned in my programming class.

I really like the passion that the instructor has for coding. He made me laugh with the small jokes he cracked in between explaining the coding. Great course. Thanks for making this!

Professor Chuck is the man. Makes you very comfortable, has a good quirky sense of humor and keeps you from getting overwhelmed looking forward to taking the next 4 courses with him

highly recommend this course. Great instructor. Functions and parameters never made sense until now. I am three weeks ahead in course 1 and about to start course 2. Highly addictive.

This course is perfectly designed for beginners. This course lifts you from bottom i.e. no prior information is required about python. I can't thank much the professor. Just perfect.

First Python class I've taken where I wasn't extremely bored! The professor is great, engaging, and I feel like I am learning a lot instead of writing "hello world" every 15 seconds.

Excellent experience !! It was worth it. As an improvement, I would recommend that the theory is also taken up in some videos to showcase the importance of self learning to students.

This would be an excellent course for anyone learning the basics of programming though establish programmers might find it a bit slow for merely picking up the particulars of python.

Very detailed and explicit course.

For me, as for the one who has a little bit practice in programming before, some of lessons had seemed to "easy". But anyway it is very good course.

Very goog. Genuinely beginner friendly. I learned lots of things and can already think of ways to use Python in my work.

Can't wait to continue with the course. Teacher is fantastic.
