Great course for beginners. Advice for new starters, work your way slowly through first couple of weeks. after completion practice with more example before moving to next course (resist the temptation)

Este curso é muito adequado para pessoas que nunca tiveram contato com programação. O professor explica os conceitos utilizando muitos exemplos da vida real e aproxima a programação do nosso dia-a-dia.

Overall, great course! It had a good amount of guidance and support! My only critique is that I wish we were able to see the correct answers to the questions we missed on the quizzes once we pass them.

Es un curso realmente útil, en todo momento se aplican conocimientos que se adquieren al pasar en cada nivel y es realmente entretenido que tengas que aplicarlos ya programando y no en un cuestionario.
