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.

I loved it! Dr. Chuck is extraordinary in his explanations. A great way to start on Python programming. As a person that hasn't programmed in years it was an encouraging and educational experience :-)

Um curso muitíssimo bem montado para aqueles que buscam iniciar na linguagem Python. Instrutor carismático e bem-humorado, sem perder o rigor das explicações, que por sua vez são muitíssimo claras.

I suppouse that, using approuch of teaching is extremely effective. Because explanations over code is something which should be in probably every programming course. Course is really for everybody.

It's excellent for a programming beginner. The explanations on how a programming language works and the introductory commands helped me to install, understand, and really deal with python on my PC.

I used python for the first time in this course. Dr. Severance broke everything down to make it seem a lot less daunting and confusing. The worked assignments and exercises helped a great deal too.

The instructor, Mr. Severance has done an excellent job in explaining the basics of python and it is mostly video based rather than too much of textual matter, which makes it even more interesting.

This course is pretty awesome for someone who is new to python & want to learn some basic syntax & semantics of it. It's not the full course, with advanced topics, but is enough to get you started.

This was an excellent course. Always informative, sometimes testing, but with a bit of hard work (and computational thinking) it is a great introduction to Python. Plus Prof Severance is excellent.

Excellent sir... Only suggestion is the assignments especially the last one is bit complicated... If possible just brief us out about such programs...but at the end it was Really good online course

This course is beginner-friendly and what stands out is that instead of choosing conventional examples the instructor has done a good job in selecting good examples that structure this course well.

This course is helpful for beginners for learning python. It teaches us the syntax, how to use float, else if and conditional statement. The interesting part was the quiz, it was not at all boring.

I thought the instructor did a very good job of walking you through the basics of python and didn't rush too quickly into anything too complicated. A great way to get some base knowledge in python.
