A question

Does anyone else feel that treehouse made this course because the other python OOP course(by Kenneth Love), was very hard to follow and not easy to learn for beginners?

Yes, and I'm so happy they did.

Yes, I've been working on them and memorized them too. I am doing Treehouse's course just to review. Corey Schafer is a really useful resource.

Yes, I have been struggling with that course for a month, and have finally called it quits. I can't get through it- there is too much thrown at you that isn't at all explained.

I am glad that they made this course, it seems clearer and easier to follow. We will see.

I found it much more helpful. In the comments to one of the original OOP videos, a user recommended these YouTube videos:

They were extremely helpful as well and Corey does a great job explaining OOP. I think there are six videos overall ranging from 3-20 min long each.
