The course has really been helpful, and I have explored and enhanced my knowledge.

I will continue to take these courses and improve on Python and my programming skills.

Excellent course and great instructor. I learned Python really quick. Easy to understand and easy to apply. Great tools, great examples, great assignments. AAA+ rating.

Excellent course with a ton of free materials. Very well-paced, and great for beginners. Appreciate Charles for his enthusiasm and very engaging tone in all the videos!

Really interesting course that explains a general overview of programming with Python. I really suggest people taking this course as their first course to learn Python.

Wow! did i complete first chapter?. Thanks to Coursera for interactive tools and problems. these tools and discussions excites and keeps you in loop until you complete.

It is an excellent course for students like me who has no prior knowledge of coding. Excellent lectures with interesting exercises helped me learn the basics of Python.

This is my very first course on Cousera and it's really a brilliant one. Thank you Dr. Charles, Univ. of Michigan and Coursera! I will continue my study in Python here.

Very good intro, can be completed much faster than the timescale stated if you are an existing programmer, but gives plenty of time for someone brand new to programming

Very clear lectures, with nice slides. It takes a while, but this course definitely makes sure that you learn the important aspects of Python! It has helped me a lot :)

Good course, good teacher, good online python practices and selftests.

Very useful for beginner.

Basic for python learner and AI, mashine learning , automatic vehicle....

Very well planned

Provided material and useful urls ahead of the course started.

Lecturing is good enough for a beginner to understand.

Good learning experience

thank you

I was new to Programming.Here we are taught from the basics.Was able to keep the pace of the teaching.Support staff were prompt in answering queries.Thank you Coursera.

It is an awesome course for anyone who want to start programming, i really recommend this course for everyone and i think it will be a great start especially for j kids

Best course I have ever participated, online and real life.

I got to a point where I actually believed, Python is not for everybody... you made me eat my hat.

Thank You!

Basic introduction to programming in python, covers things like the language syntax, loops. etc! Forms the foundation for the rest of the courses in the specialisation.

An exceptional approach to keep one engaged and cheerful all along the course! Mr. Severence is a genius. This course is a must for all programming beginners out there.

On capstone now... really good introduction to programming & computer science. Absolutely loved the weekly interviews with the legends in the field of Computer Science.

Great Course and superb professor. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in learning about computer science. Can't wait to begin the next course of the series. :)

This course is excelent. Professor Charles is amazing explaining, makes programming very easy to understand. Wish I had this course when I started Algoritms in college.

A very nice way to start programming!!! Everything is explained properly and the exercises make you understand and remember the code. I can fully recommend this course!

Excellent starter course. Dr.Charles gives clear explanations and helps get a grasp of the fundamental concepts with the utmost ease. A must-do !! By the way: IT'S FUN.

loved the class. Structure was perfect for me! instructor explained things in a way that was easy to understand. TA responded quickly with super helpful suggestions.

Great learning experience. Support is awesome. It feels like you are part of something going on a group level, not only as a self pace individual learning environment.

In this course DR. CHUCK explaining very neatly about python and Interviews of great persons ilke interview of founder of python (Rossum) I really enjoyed it very well

Pros: It was relatively easy but at times challenging. 

Cons: The quizzes won't let you review what you answered wrong, why is it wrong and memorize the correct answer.
