Is this course right for you?

Our take
A broad, project-driven route into Python for beginners, spanning several career paths in one course. With over 230,000 students it is a well-taken, motivating way to become job-ready.

Good for: beginners who want a broad, project-driven route into Python.

Skip if: you already know Python, or you want a narrow, specialist course.

Andrei Neagoie moves from Python basics through object-oriented and functional programming, decorators and generators, then applies them across web development, machine learning, data science, scraping and automation, building 12-plus portfolio projects including a deployed site. Its differentiator is breadth for learners who have not picked a Python specialty yet.

What it does not do is go deep into any one area — it is wide by design — and it will not suit someone who already knows Python or wants a narrow, specialist course. On price, wait for a Udemy sale.

About this course

This course moves from absolute Python basics through object-oriented and functional programming, decorators, generators, and error handling, then applies those skills to web development, machine learning, data science, web scraping with BeautifulSoup, Selenium automation, and a Twitter bot — building 12+ portfolio-ready projects, including a deployed portfolio website, along the way.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Andrei Neagoie's course starts from the very basics and assumes no programming background, building steadily toward more advanced work. It is genuinely beginner-friendly, but it is also broad and reaches real depth, so treat it as a serious commitment rather than a quick tour — beginners who follow along and code the exercises get far more from it than those who only watch.

A wide sweep of modern Python: core language fundamentals, then scripting and automation, working with data, web development, automated testing, and an introduction to machine learning and data science. It also includes a dedicated section on the career side — how to get hired as a Python developer. The breadth is the point, so you finish knowing which areas of Python work you actually want to pursue.

It builds a genuinely strong, broad foundation and includes career guidance, which is more than most single courses offer. But 'job-ready' also means original projects, a portfolio, and depth in a chosen area — web development, data, automation — beyond the course exercises. Use this to become broadly capable and to find your direction, then go deeper and build your own work before applying, and it becomes a real launchpad.

Yes. It teaches current Python 3 and is revised regularly — Zero To Mastery keeps its flagship courses current, and this one carries year-stamped updates. That matters because tooling and best practices shift, and the course's breadth means it touches several fast-moving areas; the ongoing updates keep those sections relevant rather than letting them drift out of date.

It is available on Udemy, usually at a low price during frequent sales, and also through the Zero To Mastery subscription which bundles it with their other courses. Either way you get lifetime or subscription access plus the ongoing updates. For a comprehensive, career-oriented Python course from a well-regarded instructor, most people find it strong value when bought on discount or as part of the membership.
