Grossly uninformative compared to every other coding course in Coursera. This seems to skip the actual fundamentals. The instructor is very assumptive in regards to new programmers understanding what the symbols and phrases mean in this particular language. It also seems that even though the lessons are pre-recorded videos there are many instances of "ohh, yeah I forgot to mention this" and proceeds to glaze over very quickly a seemingly very important part of previous lessons. Just a very frustrating way to learn.

Explanation is worst, he is just reading the lines not even explaining anything, wasted all my money and I didn't even get certificate.... for certificate I need to pay money wow.....this is just nonsense you guys only work for money for learning money and for certificate money what the hell is this....

I am very sad I joined coursera if I joined in some other website I will get good c programming course and certificate also at low cost.... please don't waste every one's time....

Instructor seems dazed and confused, as if he can't remember what he is talking about. His demeaner is very nonchalant making it difficult to tell which things are important to remember and which are more generalized background information. I only spent about a half hour on this course which is not a lot, but I feel I learned absolutely nothing to help me in programming in C. I believe that spending that half hour on free youtube videos would have been a better use of my time.

The course was unorganized. A lot of inaccurate code. An example of one was where he declared an array of grade with a constant size. The array couldn't be initialized and I spent at least half an hour to debugged it.

The issue was that "The C99 standard does not allow initialization of variable length arrays ". I had to learn how to use enums or preprocessor macro to fix it which was a topic in the next course "C for Everyone: Structured Programming".

The professor's handwriting note is really hard to read. Homework contains content that have not been taught yet. Many videos teach repeated concepts and some important concepts are not mentioned. The instructor cannot even show a tidy appearance before the screen. Very disappointed to see that this is the largest C and C++ course on Coursera. My course experience on Python, Java and Web Design is far far far better than this course.

the proffessor's teaching technique was way too dull to focus, the representation of the course was bad, the proffessor should have written the code in the lecture itself so we can understand better. A powerpoint presentation instead of the screen scribbles would have been so much better.

the assignmnets lacked clearity, audio was not clear in some videos, and I found it really difficult to understand what he's teaching.

There was a good amount of peer-reviewed assignments and quizzes.

However, this course gave just the general overview of the basic concepts and did not dive much into details or give a deep understanding of those fundamental concepts. The instructor's pace is very slow, I had to watch the videos at 1.5x and sometimes at 1.75x speed.

Overall, I am not very satisfied with this course.

It is not for beginners. I started this course to start in the world of programming, so my knowledge is nil. In the description of the course it mentions that it is not necessary that you have previous knowledge, but the reality is that you require a lot. If you are a beginner, I do not recommend it at all. The course probably just discouraged you from learning about programming.

The professor seems to have lost his passion, his attitude toward the students doesn't feel helpful. I got a vibe of the professor being tired and not really passionate about the course. In one instance, he says, "if this is too difficult or you are uncomfortable doing this find help." He was talking about the ins and outs of compilers and editors and how to install them.

there should be a younger or more exciting professor. It's hard to learn because he speaks softly and cannot read what he's saying. It's gets a little boring from lack from lack of enthusiasm. He's Hea great professor more in person rather than online. There should be a younger or more interesting professor that we can learn more from.

The course is not suitable for academic purposes. To delve more into the topic and solve the tasks independently, you need to look at learning material on the Internet. Regular bookings of 40 euros per month are unfair. I still can't find cancellation options. For the first time, I am really disappointed with Coursera-platform.

This course is NOT beginner friendly. You need prior knowledge of what editors and compilers to use, which I do not. He also mentioned in the second video that he wasn't going to take the time to explain which editor and compiler to use and suggests finding help doing so. Very unprofessional for a learning experience. Not good.

my honest opinion is that this is one of the most difficult courses I have taken, I felt like I did most of the effort myself and didn't learn anything from Dr. Ira Pohl, thank you for the course, but please change your style of teaching in the future, be more active in the videos and to the point, thank you.

This course states that it starts with the very basics of programming, yet the first few lessons state it will not teach you how to configure and editor or compiler or even teach you the basics to an editor; although it clearly states in the course summary no prior experience is neccesrary.

Incredibly messy, the teacher messes up multiple time and solemnly writes quite confusingly on a white board. The evaluations are happening a week ahead so you can't really do them with the knowledge you acquired from the course. Don't recommend!

Terrible course. Not beginner friendly. I have coded more than a "beginner" amount, and let me say this is not a good course to start on. The amount of implied knowledge the instructor expects is outrageous. DON'T TAKE THIS COURSE.

I gave up in the first week. The instructor is very boring doesn't bother at all to teach students how to set up different environments on the computer to get started so you are bogged down in the first step basically.

HWs are very poorly designed, they don't test a lot of notions in the course; they are often vague. Some video lectures mention notions that were not presented in the earlier videos (like reference types etc)

The instructor is hard to understand, skips explaining steps he is taking, and seems to be teaching exclusively to mac users. I can not follow anything he is doing. I will be unenrolling from this course.

not good because after enrolling entire specialisation course then only showing first course after next courses I can't enroll this is very bad I am not happy and dissatisfied with disappointment.

Poor and untidy handwriting makes learning the content very difficult. One has to completely rely on what the professor is speaking (the writings don't help at all)

Extremely bad teacher. Doesn't explain well. Seems like he doesn't write the code by himself, it's like he's reading it for the first time. Not recommended

Thanks for all the effort to teach me the course. The course plan is very good I personally feel very delighted to learn something new skills of coding.

The course was not structured for bigeneers!

If someone does not have any coding knowledge, it is better not to take this course it will confuse you!

Terrible introductory courses.

The professor operates on concepts whose definitions are not given. This course is like a mathematician's nightmare.
