This is a well-taught introductory course. The course instructor, Dr. Chuck is a very engaging teacher. I thoroughly enjoyed taking this course. If you have a background in programming in another language, it should be possible to go through this course pretty quickly.

Help you understanding python quickly and clearly, this is a good start!
This course was great.
If you are new to programming, I would highly recommend this course.
A little too easy.
Instructor is awesome! Funny and explains concepts clearly.
I though that this was a very good beginner course to programming. I have had a introductory course for C programming and it was similar. The quality was good and it had many good ways to reinforce the concepts. Although some of the beginning classes were very basic I still learning some concepts that I did not know.
Teacher Charles is doing a wonderful job to me, a very beginning learner. I've never thought I could take a programming class, and I didn't know if I can do that. Professor is really interesting during class video and with proper level of assignments help me more understand the materials I learned.
excellent
There is some good material but the presentation seems a bit uneven; some parts are repeated many times at very slow speed while other parts, equally important, barely rate a word. The quizzes can be very searching and you really need to have paid close attention to every word (however quickly or slowly it passed by).
I would have liked more practical exercises. The accompanying book is good and I am still looking forward to the other courses in the sequence which move further away from my limited knowledge of Python.
