About this course

Do you want to learn Python? This is the Python course for you; it’s made for beginners looking to get started properly! The Python course for beginners will get you started with Python in no time and offers the perfect base for other courses on this site and other sites.

This course is based on my free Python tutorial, but it has many advantages and extras to offer:

• The course is divided into easily digestible lessons and topics
• It’s a more streamlined experience and topics are introduced more gradually
• Keep track of your progress and continue where you left
• Most lessons end with a quiz to test your knowledge and understanding
• The course is meticulously kept up-to-date
• In the course end project, we’ll build a working TODO application to apply what you’ve learned.
• You get a certificate of completion in PDF format (see product pictures for an example)

Last but not least: you’ll support Python Land, giving you that warm, fuzzy feeling inside! Thanks to buyers of my courses, I can keep writing and building this website and future courses.

What you’ll learn in this Python course for beginners

You will learn to program in modern Python 3 and get to know and understand the most important basics properly. This is not a “learn Python in 1 hour” type of course.

1. We’ll start our journey with some context, history, and the installation of Python itself.
2. Then we’ll dive into the language basics: operators, conditional programming, loops, and the most important data types.
3. I’ll help you install VS Code, a professional code editor, and show you how to configure and use it for Python programming.
4. You’ll learn about objects and classes (the core of how Python works)
5. Along the way, we’ll create a number of small programs to put what you’ve learned into practice.

I won’t teach you tricks: it’s my aim to help you truly understand what you’re doing and how things work. After this Python course, you will have the knowledge and tools to continue your journey into more advanced topics, like data science. This course provides a solid basis for a number of follow-up courses that I’m working on as well.

Windows, Linux, or MacOS

This course can be followed on any of the following operating systems: Windows, MacOS, and Linux. We’ll be using the freely available Visual Studio Code editor, which can be downloaded for all three platforms, but if you strongly prefer another editor, you should be fine too. If you are not sure whether you are able to install and run Python on your computer, you might want to try and install it first (this is a free lesson that is part of the course) before buying the course.

Prerequisites

This Python course is suitable for those with no programming experience. You don’t need extra material or previously completed courses, because this course is self-contained. I’ll walk you through all the steps, including the installation of Python itself and a suitable editor. In addition, I designed this course so that both complete beginners and those with some prior experience can benefit.

Getting help

I’m available for questions through the contact form (e-mail). If you get stuck, I’ll do my best to get you going again.
