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

Excellent course: well-organized and presented content, engaging instruction, challenging assignments.

Great course!! Thanks

This is one of the best MOOCs I have ever taken, many thanks for Dr. Charles Severance and the moderators for their great efforts.

Wish there were more assignments per chapter to test knowledge / reinforce topics introduced. Otherwise, a great course for beginners interested in data science. *Note this class is data science orientated. There are other Coursera courses if you're interested in computational logic.

Great start for my programming career

This is really helpful!

Me ha servido para conocer los fundamentos de Python. Las explicaciones son muy buenas y didácticas. Los ejemplos de programación sirven mucho.

Great introduction to Python.

This class is great! The material, while dense, is explained at length by the professor, and the lectures do a good job of complementing the information in the provided course textbook. In addition to the professor being very down-to-earth and thorough, the mentors are incredibly responsive and helpful when asked for assistance in the forums. My fellow students are also very engaged, and it's a good choice on the part of the course organizers to get us to grade each other's work for the first (optional) assignment. The logic of programming can be very dense and forbidding, but through this course, you will feel like you have a lot of support in learning how to use it.

Professor Severance explained the concepts very well with analogies, which made it easier to understand the course! Would definitely recommend this course to others! Thank You for sharing your knowledge with us.
