This course was an amazing few months for me, learning many concepts about programming. The course was a good pace that didn't overwhelm me with too much homework every week. The teacher challenged us every class to think more about a specific problem in a different way. I also learned a lot during this class and many of the concepts intrigued me.

The course was fun as we delved into interesting, challenging algorithms. The instructor (Dr. Fatih Gelgi) was enthusiastic and explained clearly, which allowed us to comprehend the content easily. I am planning to continue in my development by taking the next course.

Raj P., CS401 (USACO Gold Basic) Student

I really liked the way the teacher explained things out- it was very easy to understand. Also, they made it very clear on how to spot errors and they got me in the habit of having good syntax. Learned very well in this course. Another thing is that I liked the practice problems on the website. They made practicing easy and fun, as well as teaching us how to do things. I really liked this course because unlike many other programming classes, this provided a perfect balance of practice, fun, and learning.
