Python

I find the Python course kind of hard

I'm a Wordpress developer (PHP) and I'm taking courses on Threehouse. I finished the Javascript track, but I'm finding the Python course kind of difficult, It's like the course is running fast. And it's supposed that Python is a easy language to learn in comparison to other languages.

Kenneth teachs good and i'm understanding, but i'm finding the exercises very challenging. When I was doing the Javascript course i never had to go to the community to find the answer. And with Python it happened a lot of times.

Hello Alvaro! Maybe we can change knowledges jajaj I am considering on taking some php courses, regarding Python the course is pretty straight foward and Kenneths way of teaching was great at least to me. If you are stuck always come here to post your question or just read the documentation, in python there is only one way(sometimes two) of doing things properly the "Pythonist" way so post here and we can help you out. What is it that you are finding hard?

Me either, Kenneth is teaching very well, I grabbed some books before i took this track. The inflammations on the books were very structured. but I find here that the information are a bit unstructured. May be it is because i am new to learning from video courses. I need some suggestions from someone who complete this track.

Hey shafeeq, I completed the tracks regarding python, and probable my biggest tip is: Follow along with kenneth, do the exercise with him and later on read the code again, so you can understand everything

Thanks tom, I am gonna give it a shot.

Yes I find that he is asking for things in the challenges which havnt been explained (that I can see) in the videos, I wish they were a bit slower paced as its off putting.

Having the same issues as some of you. I have taken other courses and found this course to be the hardest to follow.
