Object Oriented Programming (OOP) with Python for beginners (Udemy.com)

Excellent course! Loek van den Ouweland is an outstanding teacher who explains OOP clearly and directly, without unnecessary detours. He breaks down difficult topics in a way that makes them genuinely understandable, even for someone who has never encountered object-oriented programming before. The progression from basic concepts to inheritance, polymorphism, and dependency injection felt natural and well-paced. This is exactly the kind of course that teaches you the "why" behind OOP, not just the syntax. Five stars, highly recommended!

This course clearly explains what is OOP and why is used. Using a sample problem all the aspects of OOP (refactoring,class, object, inheritance, encapsulation, abstraction, polymorphism, composition) come into play. In that sense we can directly see what are the problems we face when designing a code and how we can tackle this problems using OOP philosophy. For me was really helpful because it goes through What?(problem), How?(to solve it), Why?(we use the specific approach), Where?(in the code we use a specific approach), and finally When?(we should use a specific approach). In that way everything is clear and on spot, specially for me that I am new to OOP and code design. I think it could be helpful if the main diagrams that are used, to make the point of the different OOP concepts, be shared as downloadable slides. This is a good reference to go back and avoid going all over the video again. Overall amazing intro course!

Hello Loek, thanks for your very good introduction to object-oriented programming in Python. Your tutorial is well structured and detailed. You have conveyed the material in an understandable way, although it does require basic knowledge of Python. I enjoyed diving into the world of OOP. Everything worked out for me except for "Unit Testing". I will soon start your course "Object-Oriented Pirates Programming Adventure In Python".

This course is hands down the best I've taken in udemy, as Loek really explains why you should use the different tools in the OOP arsenal. Not only that, you develop a single program, and get to whitness the entire evolution of the idea, from start to completion and testing. This is good because in other courses you do little, shallow programs that do not correspond with the complexity of real software. You'll really learn to think with Loek's guidance, and that's much better than just doing lots of small, unsignificant, shallow examples of coding.

Mr Loek van den Ouweland is an excellent and a amazing Teacher...I'm Senior software engineer (Java, spring boot...) and i'm very happy to gain knowledges on python and How python implements OOP principles...Thanks a lot Mr Loek van den Ouweland...Your courses are must to have ..Next steps your courses : SOLID principles courses, python/Django ....

I am excited about this, the questions you said you had regarding oop, are the same I had. I think that someone who has muddled through oop or is the early years of getting into ths awesome world of software development truly needs this course. This course outlines as why, the what and the how of what it takes to do object oriented programming.

The course covers the basics of OOP in Python. The OOP concepts are well-explained by the instructor. However, as the title of the course, this is just an introduction course to the topic. It would be great if the instructor gives some hints about what students of this course should follow in the next steps to enhance their Python OOP skills.

I've made the effort to try to learn Python OOP in many books and way more expensive courses but this outshines them all. It is short, succinct and stays on the rails of ensuring we don't get a treatise on Computer Science theory which obfuscates and confuses many self taught OOP learners. You'll get a single clear use case that evolves to encompass the primary principles of Python OOP. The use case is limited in scope and easy to code along to while still providing the necessary learning elements. If you are a self learner and want a great introduction to Python OOP that will serve as a foundation for further learning, I highly recommend this course.

Excellent way to present OOP, good explanation , rich in examples. I have only one comment, the example wan't selected properly, same work is easy to do in Excel like software then using oop. Anyway this is doesn't not affect the quality of course. I may recommend this one as instruction to Python OOP.

A truly excellent course -very very clear. I loved the development of the example. This is no criticism but I'd liked to see the course extended to include some of the things that it clearly doesn't and states it doesn't in the conclusion (or make another course which is more advanced which covers these things) I'd like to see a bit more explanation of dependency injection. I'd also like to see if or how one can do encapsulation a bit better (in Python) and understand how Pythons limitations in this area hinder things. I think the course should also be developed to fully cover SOLID code principles and design patterns. 5/5 Very Well Done
