    Ruben Naeff was the instructor for this intro class. Overall I felt like the class was okay, it gave me enough of a framework to self learn, and I felt comfortable with the topics covered. The instructor seemed a little disorganized however (partially a few students' fault for running down rabbit holes). While I had prior experience with other languages and using the command line interface, some students had no prior knowledge and the instructor didn't explain the actions or commands during the class examples.

    The instructor, Henry, was clearly knowledgeable, but it was his ability to address beginners that was refreshing. He covered a lot of material in the short amount of time we had allotted-and it was somehow not too intense to follow. Thanks, Henry.

    Second half of the class was really good, but the first half was a little too fast-paced for a beginner class - was hard to follow not having any programming background.

    Suneel was a great instructor! I feel like I not only have a grasp of Python, but am inspired to solidify the skill set taught in the class and also learn more advanced coding! Thank you!

    Definitely a great intro course to python. As a first classes ever in any type of programming, I was able to pretty much follow along and grasp it slowly but surely. Will definitely like to take advantage of more courses in the future
