Even though I knew I could count on the teaching staff to get help, Charles Severance is so clear and thorough that I did not even need that help.
Sure, I got stuck on one exercise. Sure, my friend pasted my code and successfully run it without making any changes. Life sucks sometimes.

great!
Simple teaching method
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. He is fun to listen to, unlike some moocs I have taken where the teachers were reading and got the intonation all wrong--very distracting.
Awesome course and fun instructor
SInce my basics of coding wasnt clear i always used to be scard of doing any coding and always avoided it. This course has cleared by basics to some extent but i still dont feel confident . Hopefullly i will improve
Good intro class. A bit too much fluff if you have programming experience, but totally get why this is good for a complete programming newbie.
wonderful
it's great and free
