Ratings and Reviews for Applied Text Mining in Python

Good course, explanation was not as detailed as previous courses of this specialization but. A lot can be learned from it.

Liked the assignments, enthousiastic moderators, videos by Vinod Vydiswaran are great.

Nice course

The instruction and explanation of key concepts was fantastic, but the instruction on the actual coding was very lacking, even compared with the other courses in this specialization.

good for text mining learning

nice course for understanding basic of text mining

More of practical implementation should be included

Excellent! Great teacher

Great course with good in detail of concepts.

Initially the lectures started fine. But by week 2, there is a big gap between the level of lecturers/material which are too superficial and the assignment which are very detailed. 90% of the time doing the assignments consist of looking up the forums or stackoverflow. The autograder is also severely outdated, never been updated for the past 3 years since the start of the course. Week 3 itself the autograder requires some "wrong answer" to pass, and this has never been updated. The mentors in the forum especially Uwe is helpful, but he's only patching the leaks by providing guides on passing the autograder. I'm only taking this course to finish the specialization, but I would not recommend this course at all, especially since it's paid and I feel it's not worth the price for the outdated content.
