This is a FANTASTIC foundation for people who have not gotten into the weeds of a programming language before. The way Charles breaks everything down and gives you logical, visual, and technical ways to think about each coding concept is a great multi-pronged teaching approach that makes coding feel intuitive.

Um curso incrível, adorei bastante o instrutor e além de abordar diversos temas sobre o Fluxo de Programa, que basicamente é toda a parte inicial necessária para aprender a programar em python. Com toda a certeza indicaria esse curso a outras pessoas, especialmente quem está começando no mundo da programação!

AM EXTENSIVELY AND EXTREMELY ELATED TO COMPLETE THIS COURSE. AM REALLY EQUIPPED AND ENHANCED IN MY SKILL AND KNOWLEDGE PORTFOLIO.I SINCERELY THANK MY INSTRUCTOR, CHARLES RUSSEL SEVERANCE FOR HOLDING MY HANDS THROUGH THE KNOWLEDGE-GAINING JOURNEY. I WANT TO SAY AN ENORMOUS THANK YOU TO CHARLES AND TO COURSERA.

This is a great course I sincerely recommend for you. As I am a beginner here in programming, I can feel that I learn a lot here from this course, and the homework also made me to think and solve it. I am enjoy in solving work and Professor Chunk's trip around the world. This is my favorite part after class.

The instructor is awesome and the designing of course is fabulous and super easy to understand. I found this course great. I will suggest who want to learn Python Must must take this Course. It will help you lot and clear all your basics.I refer all my beloved friends and juniors to take this course.

Thankyou.

Actually I loved this course offered by Coursera and my professor Dr.chucks the way he taught us that's really fantastic, I was very enthusiastic in the whole course to learn new things and loved the way Dr.chucks explained it all. I suggest everyone if they are planning to learn python they must go for this.

Love it. Don't be afraid if you've zero IT / programming knowledge. This course caters to complete beginners. I came w/o any knowledge and i thoroughly enjoyed this course. Easy step by step and systematic learning. Can always revisit the videos again if you can't remember something. Thanks so much Dr Chuck !

Very well done course that is a great introduction to people who have little to no prior coding experience. The instructor explains concepts in multiple ways in plain language and analogies easy to understand. I also enjoyed the bonus video interviews with people involved in open source software and hardware.

Best programming course I have ever taken. Charles Severance explains all concepts clearly and demonstrates them in a fun and practical way that makes it easy for people to work at assignments at their own speed and learn how to build relatively complex programs with little or no background in programming. :)

Good intro to python. Gets you on basics as well as loops and conditional statements. The lectures cover the book materials and are helpful for understanding. The worked examples are often straight forward, but occasionally require some debugging and extending your thinking a little past the current material.

Hola me encanto aprendí muchísimo y el profesor espectacular hace que le cojas amor a las clases y es muy agradable entrar, la verdad creas un vinculo aun sin conocerlo personalmente, es una persona genial y explica super bien ya quiero continuar y seguir ampliando mis conocimientos. De verdad muy agradecida

I honestly say this is a great platform for beginners to learn Python. The clear explanations, exercises and competitions provided here have given me great knowledge and experience and have helped me a lot in developing my skills. This service should continue. Many people should benefit from this.  Thanks

This course was taught well by the instructor and the language of teaching was simple and easy to understand the concepts and logics behind every basic topics. The quality of weeky assignment and quiz questions were also extremely good and different. On a whole it was a great experience learning this course.

I used to dislike programming more than anyone. That's because I hadn't found a suitable method of learning, and 'm very serious when I say that I'm really looking forward to complete the whole specialization program and any other programming course that Charles Severance and University of Michigan provide.

This course assumes you know nothing. As someone who came from a hard course to learn the basics, it was very easy but I totally understand this is the purpose of this course. I am hopeful that the following courses will provide me with the knowledge I need to advance in harder courses in my specific field.

What an effort put by the instructor and the assignments are design cleverly good so that we can get the basic idea as well as understand the concept. Just add a little more task start form easy to complicated so that we can get a higher level of understanding. Thanks again for making such an awesome course.

This course is focused on teaching the basics of python for those who does not know even the basics of programming. The way that the professors provide explanations to every concept makes pretty easy to understand every aspect of the course. I highghly recommend it for newcomers in the world of programming.

What's really great about this course is that you get 3-4 different avenues to learn and secure your knowledge on the topic. Not only are there videos you can watch and material to read, the quizzed help remind you of what you learned and most of all the practice exercises give you experience in programming.

It was really a wonderful learning experience with Prof. Charles. He is really a great educator and learning python for the first time wouldn't have been better than this. So thanks to Coursera for giving us such a great opportunity to learn online while being quarantined at our home for the last two months.

Excellent course, well suited for beginners, as it covers the very basics to ensure you understand all subsequent steps. The teaching approach is very engaging and interspersed exercises as well as additional material and resources available from the PY4E website helped me stay engaged throughout the course.

Great lecturer and well though-out assignments that cement the teaching in the lectures. The 'autograder' assignments are very useful and how some code has been entered to start you off and get you thinking (it may or may not be correct!)

My only criticism is that the bonus materials aren't all that relevant.

I really loved this course. I have no prior knowledge of programming. After completing this course, i have learned the basics of Python programming. The teaching and the exercises in this course is really good. I would definitely recommend this course to someone who wants to start learning python from basics

Outstanding introduction to Python. A bit off topic at times, but all with good intent by Dr. Chuck. For those with NO knowledge of computers, it's a good point to start; those with intermediate computer knowledge, you'll find yourself time-skipping through videos at time. 10/10, have recommended to friends.

Very good course! It explains a computational language in an easy way so i, a biologist could easily understand it. The tests are very compatible with the course theory and really helped me to practice what I've learned in the course. Congratulations on the great course! I'm looking forward to the next ones!

An awesome course for beginners..Starts from the root of logic building and programming and moves forward to some tough problems..Very interactive sessions with an awesome teacher who brings a big smile on your face whenever you open the video..Feeling really high after completing the course... Thank you..:)
