Ratings and Reviews for Programming for Everybody (Getting Started with Python)

Excellent course for those, like myself, who have no experience with computer science or programming. This course will give you a great introduction to Python as well as the skills necessary to take other courses. The pace of the course is just right so you will be challenged and motivated until the end. Furthermore, you will receive a lot of support from the Professor as well as the community so whenever you get stuck, there will be a lot of people helping you understand the problem your are having. The Professor, Dr. Chuck, is extremely engaged, motivating and passionate about enabling people around the world to learn programming skills. He participates in the course and forums, making the long distance learning more personal and exciting. I strongly recommend this course for beginners - if you are afraid of starting a programming course because you do not know whether you will be able to learn, go ahead, enrol and have fun!

The class is well paced and the instructor provides the content in a very easy to digest mode.

simply awesome!!

Good intro/refresher for someone with no or very little programming knowledge.

Good course to start basic programming in Python

I enjoyed this course. Thank you, Mr. Charles Severance for elaborate teaching and for making the sessions interesting with all the questions asked and time given for students to pause - think and continue. Since I had prior experience in programming I found it easy to clear this course. I will be enrolling for the next course in Python offered by you. This is my first Coursera course and I am impressed!

Excellent course for beginners to learn Python.

Excelent and very educative course with great teacher...

I have tried various online courses before though i couldn't complete anything on time. This course takes the least amount of time and gives you a comprehensive introduction to Python. It has everything which a completely new person to programming needs.

Awesome course taught by an awesome teacher! I really like this course!
