It is a good course and teaches with the basic of Python so that anyone can understand it very well. Videos are good and can easily be understandable to anyone who is new to Python and Data Science.

it becomes easier wand clearer when one gets to complete the assignments as to how to utilize what has been learned. Practical work is a great way to learn, which was a fundamental part of the course.

Good course! Instructor talks a bit fast and sometimes a 2 second break won't hurt. Better than stopping video manually.

It's a basic python course, but delivers what it promises.

It could improve having some optional advanced topics in it.
