The best Python course out there. I love this professor. I have tried many Python courses in the past from other sources, but I always got bored after the first initial sessions. Either too simple or too complex. This is perfect. Thank you!

This course enables us to get the basics quite quickly. As I have already experienced other programming languages, this was pretty easy to me. I am looking forward to getting to next chapters.

Thanks for your pedagogic approach of the course

This is a fantastic course for anyone who wants to learn more about the power of coding and has very little experience. The professor is funny and speaks in a way that is very easy to learn from and makes you want to continue learning more.

Really enjoyed this course! The instructor was very informative and made it easy to understand. It's also great knowing we're able to go at our own pace. Though there were a few assignments that threw a few curve/tricky situations to solve.

Good course! Prof Chuck's teaching is remarkable as he makes concepts easy to understand. Also the interviews in bonus videos were quite inspiring. Thanks to the entire team for catering us with a wonderful programming experience. Kudos! :)

Simple to understand. For those who have no programming or computer science background this would be easy, or should I say it would not be too difficult to go through lecture materials. The best thing I love are the quizzes and assignments.

Extremely easy to follow. The last assignment was a little difficult considering the simplicity of the other assignments, but well worth it. I've already recommended the course to co-workers and I'm looking forward to completing the series.

This course is definitely for beginners. If you want to learn to program, but you aren't sure where to start then this is the course for you. If you are someone who already knows a bit of programming then this course will seem a bit easy.

Great introductory course for beginning programmers. This course helps users build a strong foundation from which to build additional skill sets. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in learning Python or general programming.

easy to understand for non-programmers. Love the professor and his humor. As the professor says, you should make sure to understand every single line in your program at this early stage. I'm taking the second part of the specialization now.

Excelente como punto de partida si no se tienen conocimientos previos respecto a Python, el profesor explica todo de manera clara. Las actividades tienen un buen de nivel de exigencia; usas lo visto en clase pero aun así tienes que pensar.

This is a fantastic entry-level programming course for those with little to no programming experience. Friendly and engaging instructor makes the material easy to comprehend. Recommend for anyone looking to dip their toes into programming.

It's a great non-intimidating introduction into Python. Dr Chuck brings so light and with humor, it really helps a lot for me as a beginner. He uses non technical comparisons that everyone can understand, that was really a big plus for me.

I definitely recommend this course for everyone who is interested in programming. As it says that it is for everyone, even for people without a background. It was the first step for me in programming but I will go for it to develop myself.

I really enjoyed taking this course because for years I've been wanting to learn Python and I was motivated to finish the course in the least time possible because of how fun it was. The professor was also really clear in his explanations.

Strongly recommendable for programming beginners. Python is a relatively straightforward language and is more explicit if you wish to do something in a short time. This course covers the basics of Python and it really explains things well.

I've been learning Python from youtube channels so this course was kind of easy to me, but if I compare both styles of learning, I prefer this one because it has an order and the explanations are so much clear.

This is an excellent course!

The instructor starts teaching from very basics which helps non-programmers to get the concepts easily. Moreover, he made the foundation strong by delivering key points that other instructors usually skip this thing to go straight forward.
