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 :-)

Good course to start with! The instructor made it look easy. It is useful in learning to use proper functions, loops, if-statement with proper syntax. Overall a good course for the beginners.

Detailed in concept, great course !!!

assignment 5.2 is a bit challenging since the requirement is quite abstract for foreign learners (Especially those who are not native English speaker )

This is for the very beginners, but Chuck makes an amazing job explaining all these concepts.

If you are not new to programming, this class won't take 7 weeks to complete, probably one or two.

Prof. Charles Severance did a great job to teach students online.

Thank you so much sir.

Assignments are very helpful in learning. You truly have to figure some things out on your own and really think things through. The teachers on the forum are also quick to answer and helpful.
