The course was pretty good. Christine has explained all in a really good way. Easy to understand for beginners. One star missing is because there was times where in assessments we were supposed to use some functions not explained during videos. I know it won't be possible to explain all functions of a class but the important ones are necessary. Overall a good experience and a great start to python:)

Un buen curso que se complica poco a poco, se puede hacer perfectamente con un leve conocimiento de inglés, aunque sería recomendable tenerlo algo fluido, algunas tareas falta algo de información en las clases y hay que buscarle la vuelta, en fin es un curso en el que hay que tener algo de conocimiento previo sobre habilidades informáticas simples, pero se aprende correctamente lo básico de python.

Useful course and covers fundamentals. I put 4* because I think videos are way to short and it is very annoying to receive an introduction and a wrap-up for a 4 minute video. They should be at least 10-15 min, less videos but longer. The "snake" introduction is also very annoying. It should be only at the beginning of a module, but not in EVERY single video. A waste of time and tiresome.

I would give it a 5/5 but I feel like I had to go to the forums for learning from peers sometimes rather than re-watching the videos. Loops are tricky and I feel like the videos could have been more related to the questions that were going to be on the quizzes/assessments. Overall though, I liked the course and I felt accomplished when I finally didn't have to look up help anymore at the end.

Could be enhanced for visual learners by showing while telling more. The encouragement and self-pacing statements seemed rather excessive by the midpoint of the course. Some minor errors/issues. Final project was more a test of ability to parse discussion forum for solutions to import issues. But all in all, the course was good and did what it advertised. Good crash course on Python. Thanks!

Sometimes is needed to apply some concepts when they are explained, in some stages, they provide alternatives that confuse me because are part of next stages during the development of the course, and sometimes when you put the code in your own console it works but in the proper environment of the course it produces as an output a mistake that sometimes you have to look for how to solve

Great course! I am giving 4 stars, not 5, only because there was minimal help on how to practice outside of repeating the same mini quizzes and rewatching videos. Fantastic explanations and examples of what Python can do and how to apply it in real scenarios. I would only hope to see some more practice work, or at least some direction on where a student could go for such practice.

The instructor was very good at what she was teaching...it was visible...i haven't given 5 starts because concepts like sets and composition weren't explained in depth but made use of later in the exercise part. But overall this crash course is very complete on its own and definitely one of the best available on the internet. Thanks for providing such professional expertise online.

Nice intro, Coursera is a little bumpy-grindy at times - lost the entire Final Assignment code base just before they went offline for (much needed) maintenance. But, I learned from that episode and fortunately I had already copied the code to my local computer.

I'm glad to get the basic course behind me, as the remainder of the course promises to be far more interesting.

Challenging especially if you are new to programming, you will have to do some practice and reading outside of what is given to you in the course. It is also not the greatest experience when using the provided integrated programming environment and thus I recommend using an IDE when trying your own scripts in this course. This course will allow you to grasp the foundation.

The Course could be easy for someone who has already a certain knowledge of programming. I personally found it well structured and some exercises helped me to better understand Python. The main advantage is to have to solve guided problems which gradually require more and more knowledge of the language. For me personally this was a good way to start to learn Python.

I really enjoy this course on Coursera.it is both challenging and doable for beginners like myself. The first few weeks the tests are relatively easy but once the topic of loops and dictionary are involved it gets much harder. I really took my time to complete this course and I am glad I completed it. 9/10 and I will probably review the materials when I get stuck

Really fascinating course and I say, one of the best courses on Coursera. Even if you have no prior knowledge of python or any programming languages, you won't find it hard to understand the course material. It does get a bit hard in the end when OOP is introduced but with a little practice you'll do just fine. I highly recommend this to everyone. Happy Learning.

I've learnt a lot in this course and very happy because I can use this knowledge to boost up my IT career and get a job of my dreams. But I would like to point out one thing that affected me in some way, that is the course felt a little fast and hurried up in the last and the project was a lot to take up at the end. Otherwise the course is well written and good

The course material was fairly clear and easy to follow. I, personally, had a few issues using the jupyter notebook in the final assessment, as I hadn't worked out how to get the notebooks to give informative debug messages. I think a bit of a manpage or help text about what the WordCloud module routines require as inpute and give as outputs might be useful.

Мне понравился этот курс. Но я уже немного знал Python. Если бы не знал, то было бы сильно тяжелее его освоить. Остались вопросы по ООП, но это была дополнительная тема и в зачет она не шла, как я понял.

Не могу не отметить реально крутую подачу материала. Google очень постарался.

Понравилось, что задания похожи на настоящие задачи, которые решают сисадмины.

Course was good. Explanation of concepts and examples was good. The exercises got a little lost in the weeds at times though; which is to say, I spent more time trying to figure out what I was supposed to do rather than how to do it. That to me says, the exercises could use some refinement, which is the reason for losing 1 star in the review (4 star review)

The Instructor is one of the best few tutors that are amazing and good at what they do. In all my life i have meet lots of tutors and she is the third tutors that i will say best in all my tutors.

She is really amazing and made the all course very interesting and fun to study. Never a dull moment nor did i ever fell asleep while she was teaching.

She is A++

I really enjoyed the course. The instructor in the videos did an outstanding job explaining concepts. I also like how she inspired confidence by stating it was OK if you didn't understand certain concepts right away. I think that's an important piece that is often times left out, especially for folks highly critical on themselves. Thanks for the course!

I think this is a great course, definitely going to continue on. The missing star is only because I wish there was more practice involved with each new concept and video. I had to find other resources to help me learn, but other than that I would really recommend this to other people who would like to learn to program. Thanks for beginning my journey!

I really learned a lot in this course and I feel that the pace is also good. The main problems that would have pushed me to the 5 start range were that there weren't many options for practicing my lessons and when there was technical difficulty, the discussion forums were of little help. Other than that, I was very happy with the results.

It was a very enjoyable course. The organization of the course make python more accessible for beginners that are not even from the IT field. It remains sometimes frustrating when the exercice is a level higher than the course. Maybe more exercices that become gradually more difficult for the same topic might help more. ++ for the Teacher

O curso é desafiador e ensina os conceitos básicos de programação , nos levando a desenvolver nossos próprios códigos. Alguns exercícios são mais difíceis do que a teoria proposta, porém o nível mais elevado faz com que nos dediquemos mais ao conteúdo. É necessário fazer uma leitura complementar para conseguir acompanhar o curso.

Mostly good for programming beginners. Some of the weekly tests had vague questions (ie: the one about counting birds did not state that there should be more than zero birds). Way too much mathematics, rather than objects, in the beginning weeks making it difficult for non-visual learners to understand how to resolve the issues.

Had great learning through explanatory videos and lots of good reading materials. The practice quizzes and lab guides were super helpful in adding to the theory knowledge gained through the course. Now, I feel confident to dive into the world of programming using Python and learn more complex and diverse topics around it.
