It´s quite easy and challenging at the same time, very well balanced course, that sometimes MAKES YOU use all the learned knowledge and spellbook to get around.

Python for Beginners is a great course. The interactivity and hands-on coding experience is unmatched in the learning space. Lessons, videos, gamification, and an AI interface dedicated to answering custom questions and making custom exercises to improve the experience... no one else is providing this kind of teaching experience.

I'm new to coding, I often found myself using a fish just to get started then righting the entire block on my own. the spell book was hard to use for me. maybe a hot bar where it pulls up the top 3 or 4 things your gonna need to complete the lesson you're on. over all it was a fun lesson but I found myself waiting to start the next chest. there should be a bounty system that only gives gems based on difficulty of the bounty. over all definitely worth my money!!

It's a well-made introductory course, very fun and I like the feedback system. It doesn't feel like chores like in university. I learned a lot from it, and I'm very interested in taking other courses.
