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.

It is a very valuable course that I have learned for the Python skillset. It contains some advanced methods. It helps me to build more confidence in using Python and understand the concept in general.

For a beginner course it would be better explained, but I think it is part of the process when we don't know Python at all.

Material goes too fast especially with the API section. Found it to be very unclear at times, needs to slow down the pacing

Most of the topics in Python are covered, but in my experience it would have been better if concepts explained thoroughly.

Quick, well-presented but inadequate introduction to python basics. Especially "pandas" and "numpy" are poorly introduced.

The course moves very fast so it can be hard to keep up and take notes. The labs help reinforce what was just covered.

I think the module should be more practical and teach more from the application of Python rather than from slides.
