Easy to follow and not boring. The instructor breaks things down in simple form. The Coursera platform is sometimes a bit quirky but otherwise the content in this course I thought was quite excellent.

Dr. Chuck is highly endearing. The pace feels appropriate for beginners. If you were intimidated by CS50 this is a much more reasonable place to start.
