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.

Great introduction to Python and programming as a whole. Everything is broken down making it easy to understand. Had zero programming experience before and this class made it easy and fun to get into.

Great intro to Python! I came in with some very minor coding experience (not in Python), and it was very clearly laid out and enjoyable to go through.

As the title says: it's for everybody. I took this course as a part of the specialization in python so the added value for me was the commands syntax.
