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.

Great course! I always thought of programming as a too-difficult-and-complex thing for me; now I want to learn more. Thank you Dr Charles Severance for explaining everything in such an affordable way.

A delightful introduction to Python programming with the very talented Dr Chuck. If only I'd had lecturers like him when I was doing my undergraduate courses. <sigh>

Very well-structured with amazing demonstration and explanation. This was better than the Udemy course I took. The slower pace allows me to absorb the information.

A very good course for you if you don't have any prior knowledge of Python. A bit of a slow paced at early weeks but after 2nd week it starts to be more interesting.

Great! Relatively easy and beginner-friendly. Not sure if you can learn a lot from this class. I think you need to learn more classes to have more idea about python.

Very good course!It is very intuitive and the teacher's methodology is very didactic, so that any person, regardless of their programming knowledge, can learn easily

Somewhat easy, but it's a "getting started" course. Dr Severence's communicates well the programming concepts without using any jargon that festers in the IT worlds.
