This is a great course for beginners for sure. I loved the teacher and would do more courses she teaches for sure. The only thing I would have to say is that the last task was a bit difficult for some of the coding and there was no assistance of someone I could have reached out to. i.e. if I was having a hard time with a certain aspect in Scratch that I had a difficult time with, I would have loved somehow to ask for assistance to better understand what I was doing wrong and/or why it was not working

The course is very comprehensive. The videos are split into smaller portions that prevented me from being bored. The concepts are presented in a simple manner that I can easily understand. I also appreciate the illustrations used to explain the concepts and the interviews with real-world professionals that relate what they do with software engineering. Thanks for this course! This is awesome!

This was a great class for me. I had fun learning about programming concepts and Scratch. There are weekly quizzes and two projects to work on. Both the quizzes and the projects will definitely help you learn more about software design principles. You will have fun while learning and working on your coding skills. I took toward taking more courses on Scratch if they are available.

Great introduction to programming in very easy and understandable steps and units. Can recommend this to anyone who wants to get into programming without any prior experience and for any age group. Despite having many many students, the teachers were also extremely forthcoming and helped me with some administrative issues I had and despite some back and forth via e-mail. Great job!

This course is ideal for anyone with zero programming experience who wants to learn the basic concepts and have fun doing so. I would definitely recommend 'Code Yourself! An Introduction to Programming' as an entry level course to everyone of any age who has an interest in learning how to develop. Well done to the team that put this course together.

outdated. New Scratch 3 looks different and it's difficult to do the same things if you follow instructor

This is a great course for anyone who is interested in programming but have zero to little programming background. I would say that this course would also be interesting for some experienced programmers.

Scratch code and interface are easy to understand. This course not only teaches about the code but also teaches how to think as a programmer such as, how to design your code or algorithm based on the software requirements, analyzing your code, doing the best practice, etc.

During the course, you will be guided by Dr Areti Manataki (If you choose the course in English). She explains everything pretty well and uses terms that easy to understand. For example by explaining code algorithm by comparing it with daily activities.

The tutors were highly professional. I did not have any computer science background prior to starting the course and therefore my level of confidence and comfortability was very low. However, I must say all that quickly vanished soon after I started listening to the lectures. The tutors simplified otherwise difficult and complex tasks to become easy to understand, which gave me an eagerness to continue learning. I would want to recommend anyone who wants to pursue a tech career to start off the journey with this course. Thank you and I appreciate it.

A real starter course for simple programming. i, with no idea on programming, decided to try this course. this was my first coursera course. i got to say, it really is the starter. i really recommend this for people who want to program, but dont know where to start. the course is made in a very fun way. i am 10 years old and i loved this. tells you the basics of programming, teaches you programming in scratch. do this course before any other programming one. it'll seriously help you

Good introduction introduction to common terms, common project design from inception to completion. Pacing was good and instructions were clear and concise. I was able to complete projects without having to seek supplementary guidance from third party websites. Instructors were clear and easy to understand. Thank you for the course, I really enjoyed it. All my best.

I had fun learning to code in bite-size chunks. I am now confident that I will be able to learn and adapt to other languages like C++, Java and even Python. I highly recommend this course; you'll pick up some interesting skills along the way.

This course was superb and I learnt a lot of things from this course which has helped me to learn the concept of programming. I would like to thank our mentor in this course and would like to give them a very big thank you from my side.

T​his course is very helpful for the beginners because the lecturer is started from basic and everything that teacher explains is easy to understand!

It was a great experience for me and i have gain lots of knowledge through this course, in a very efficient way, so thank you so much.

actually Iam a beginner in the world of coding, and i have understood the basics of coding with the help of this course.

very well explained and the whole course is so fun to learn !!!! and very motivating too for programming beginners....!

i​t is very usefull course , it is best for the beginners i leaned so much from this i loved it

This course was very good and very useful. I suggest all of you. Thanks for everything ♥

Muy bueno para iniciar en el mundo de la programacion, me encanto trabajar con scrath

very nice the metodologic excellent teacher and very funny... thanks

Good course for someone who is starting in programming.

Very good and practice, I learn more of programmming

I enjoyed it, it's really good to start programming.

I love the course. I enjoyed playing and learning.

Excelente introduccion al mundo de la programación
