Extremely basic but Dr. Chuck is so interesting that you never get bored. You can pass the course in a few days with minimum or even no programming knowledge. It's a good starting point for beginners.

Professor Severance goes through the course at a good pace. It was difficult enough to make you think but not so much that I felt overwhelmed. He's easy to listen to and really is a talented teacher.

It was a very nice start of my Python learning, a good grasp on the VERY basic concepts. Thanks to Professor Snape ! He has been an amazing teacher to steer you through this path of learning at home.

I loved the course and the most beautiful thing about this course is the instructor, his way of teaching and hilarious sounds. I just wish I could have got a teacher like him in my undergrad years.

This is a very organized and intuitive online course. Despite the short length of the course, it is much better organized and presented than many online Masters of recognized universities. Thank you.

I have done a couple Beginner Python classes before. This one stands out. The professor made the subject seem simple and also made me think about how/where to put this knowledge to use. Great course!

A welcoming and thoughtful introduction to programming, perfect for a first time learner or as a refresher course for somebody who's allowed their programming skills to get rusty. Highly reccommended

That was a great course. I thank Coursera for approving my financial aid. I might not express my feelings because of my bad english but I am truly thankful to Coursera and the University of Michigan.

This course is very well structured, it will teach you have to think like a computer and thus being able to give the computer instructions much more dynamically vs just teaching you to memorize code.

Was a great experience for something looking to slowly wade into the world of programming. I'm excited to continue onward as I continue to potentially learn more and see if data management is for me.

I loved this course and learned so much! It's been a long time since I used it and wanted to take the course again but Coursera doesn't let me retake this course once completed! It's a great course!
