Very useful book. The instructor is very well equipped and has a great way of teaching. It was a pleasure being his student and acquiring some of his knowledge. I look forward doing more courses under your instructions. Thank you Charles sir.

What an excellent professor! He starts with the basic of the basic material, and at no point does any of it seem overwhelming even for a newbie like me. His vision, ideology, and passion is almost palpable. Looking forward to the next course!

An excellent course for beginners, who are willing to learn python. The instructor is very good at explaining things and all the lectures were very clear and easy to understand. I recommend this course for beginners who like to learn python.

This course was amazing!!!! Though I learnt some programing years ago, this course just refreshed my mind back!!! Understandable videos, proper guideline, good assignments all are in one package!!! Mr. Severance is a very good teacher indeed.

Really helpful and well explained. Was finding it hard to believe that as a beginning, I could start grasping the ground concepts of programming. And it is possible. Thank you Dr. Chuck, Coursera and University of Michigan for the oportunity.

Dr. Chuck makes the subject matter fun and easy to learn. Just need to follow along and he helps make sense of the control flow. Cannot wait for the next courses to expand on this foundation of Python knowledge of Python. Thanks Dr. Chuck.

Very good course! Amazing! I can easily follow it without much pressure and I am pretty sure I have learnt what I get from the class. The book attached by the course is also very good. I believe it would help me build a fundamental of Python!

I've started Python Basics course various times offered by many others but was never hooked to it as I was to this one. It was simplified for a non-programmer and alas I have made a head start with Python. Thank You for this wonderful course.

This is a great course. The teacher not only knows his material, but has a lot of experience working with first time programmers and so knows what errors they are likely to make and what questions they are likely to ask and addresses them all

A nice start to Python Programming. It covers all the essential knowlegde. The videos and the notes were very helpful and the instructors very clarifying. I definitely recommend this course to anyone who wants to get started with programming.

I feel good to take this class. The content of each class is very clear, the structure of the whole course is reasonable. I learnt it day by day, step by step. I can feel my progress. I will continue learning more couses about Python. Thanks.

If you don't know how to program, this is a great introduction. For me since I know how to program (but not in Python), it was an introduction to the Python language. I appreciated being able to run lectures at 1.25 speed to complete quickly.

amazing course!! Mr. Chuck is an amazing teacher, and the lessons are greatly planned and organized. This was my first time coding ever, and I had no trouble keeping up, and I also had a lot of fun!!! Best of all, its FREE for first week!!!!!

A very good intro class for Python. Dr. Severance gives a detailed and interesting explanation for definitions and usage. Works great for people barely have programming background. Hope there would be more assignment or exercise for practice.

I recommend it to absolute beginners to programming. For those new to Python but otherwise, good programmers, this course gently introduces you to Python in an effortless manner. great course for programming beginners and those new to python.

This was my first ever course on Coursera and believe me I had an amazing learning experience I feel like there could have been no one other than Dr chuck who could have made me understand these python programming concepts in a more fun way.

Hi,

it’s an awesome program definition for 'def' was great because i have watched so many videos about 'def' none of information is not enough to understand it for me, but in this program i got the answer.

Thanks for Professor and the Teams.

Very good course! But of course, different ones offer different perspectives, and one cannot cover them all. So it might not hurt to take other courses at the same level in the future. But this one is solid in offering substantial materials.

I am very happy with learning the course. The professor is very good at explanation. He goes through every point in detail without letting us confuse. I could literally spend more time in listening and increase my skills. Thanks To Coursera.

Excelente curso. El instructor explica el material de una forma muy amena, por lo que el material no se siente pesado. De igual forma, los ejemplos que da son muy claros y concisos, por lo que no se batalla en entender el material explicado.

I found this course really enjoyable. The instructor is really awesome and motivating. This course gives a good kickstart in the world of Python. To me, this is the best course available for someone who is just starting to learn programming.

I am very much impressed with Dr Chuck as his method of teaching is phenomenal. Sometimes this course looks boring but Dr Chuck initiates some interesting topics and exercises. So auto-grader tool really helps and python is very interesting.

It is the best python introduction course i've ever learned. It makes you realize what is python and what we have to do with python. It was amazing.Now, I'm going to do the 2nd course of this specialization. Thanks to University Of Michigan.

Amazing course delivery, I have never understood programming easier than this, simple and easy to interpret and also slow paced for beginners to work on it. Loved it. Thank you so much sir for this wonderful course and excellent explanation.

The course has been designed in a comprehensible way which allows beginners to proceed without any confusions. I would recommend this course to anyone who would like to give a try to coding. Intuitive courses like this are really motivating.
