The course content is well-organized that makes students easy to follow, but there is limited amount of examples and exercises for students to learn how to apply the knowledge in real world situation.

Very beautifully taught. I gained basic python programming knowledge quite easily. The lecturer is fun and encourages students to want to learn more. In general, it was an awesome learning experience.

Super funny professor. Not dry or monotonous at all. Mainly talked about pretty basic stuff in this course. But he is really good at explaining things and giving examples. Will take the other courses in this specialization.

This is my second online class using Couresa and what I've liked (what has helped me) so far in this class have been the videos, I think I could have learned this on my own, but it's great listening to an actual instructor.

Quite fun, Dr Severance goes into good detail on the topic, his lectures are quite engaging, as he has filmed himself talking, so they are a lot more personal, and less "mind blowing" than some hardcore programming courses.

Professor Severence makes the class fun and interesting. The book is free and the material is chunked in a logical manner that makes it easy to follow along each week. Great pace for anyone who also has a full time job.

Incredible intro to Python! The professor is super relatable and walks you through every concept incredibly well, without assuming any prior knowledge. Don't look any further if you'd like to learn Python and know nothing.

An awesome course for beginners! The concepts are explained very clearly! The assignments and quizzes are doable. It would be great if there are more practice questions to help us familiarize with the concepts even better.

Un curso bastante completo para introducion a Python, un poco facil para alguien con un poco de experiencia en Python. Pero tambien puede servir para fundamentar algunos conceptos necesarios para aplicaciones mas avanzadas

Excellent course. I learn the basics of the Python language very detailed. The teacher explains very well and is very didactic. The videos at the end of each section about the jobs and uses of Python were very interesting.

The best programming class on python. I guarantee no other class can solve your issues with so much intensity. It clears your basics from inner depth. Moreover, the interviews are awsome which us more insights on Python 3.

This is a wonderful course. In beginning the assignment was quite easy but as we go further assignment was tricky in which we have to apply all of our understanding... but in all, it was amazing with excellent explanation.
