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 :-)

Your first impression might be that the course looks a little dated, however don't get it twisted, this course is timeless and is relevant for as long as Python 3 is the most up to date Python.

Es el mejor curso de python que pude encontrar, al principio no tiene mucho que ver con el tema pero que eso no te quite la emocion por aprender, se entiende muy bien pero tambien hay subtitulos.

This course is very good for the foundation knowledge about python. It helps newbie understand some very basic things about python. But, it is not good for someone who already good at programing.

Very good introduction to python and programming in general. The way they make us think in the videos is very helpful to solve the problems and it doesn't scare people with overcomplicated things

This course has been very helpful and easy to follow. The lessons are clear, however, I think it would be helpful to explain how to use the syntax for some of the functions, even if just briefly.

A very good course in my view. The classes were good. But assignments were a little advanced but was abled to complete after 2-3 tries. I had no former experience in python and still held up good

Very well prepared course. The lectures are very informative, the color coding in the slides is very helpful. It would be better, if there were a bit more assignments to test what you've learned.

Really easy to understand the basics of Python with the help of an amazing instructor,Dr. Chuck ! Very informative and the best part for me is that you don't have be good in mathematics at all :P

Thank you for the course.

I think it would be more useful to have more small exercise within one week. So students can not only listen to the theory but what is more important, can more practice.

Even if you know nothing about programming, this class will teach you the basics of the Python language. It should also stir up your interest in learning more about computer coding in the future.
