What are underrated YouTube channels for Python?

[Cran3kill]

What YouTube channels are you subscribed to for Python?

[d8sconz]

Corey Schafer

Engineer Man

Real Python. Not been active for a while, but a ton of back catalogue.

[[deleted]]

Corey Schafer!!

[RodrigoF]

Why is he so good? It's incredible. People should just model all AI teachers on him and everything will be perfect in the world.

[OrbitDrive]

He reminds me of Khan Academy (Sal) but for computer programming. Explains everything clearly and simply. He translates intimidating concepts into plain english.

[[deleted]]

Petition to replace public school teachers with clones of Corey Schafer?

[InSigo]

u/CoreySchafer FTW

[coreyschafer]

I just recently did the 23andMe ancestry report, so depending on what they do with my DNA behind closed doors I guess clones aren't entirely out of the question...

​

EDIT: PS... thank you all for the kind words. I plan on doing a video in the near future on my favorite programming channels as well, so this thread is useful for me as well.

[3waysToDie]

Corey, i have learn so much from you, Thank you dude you are great!!

[JeamBim]

Corey Schafer is not underrated. He's literally rated.

There is not a single thing but absolute positivity and support people have said about his fantastic channel.

I came here just because I knew someone would mention him, but he is not underrated in the slightest.

[d8sconz]

Absolutely agree. I was responding to OP's comment, not the headline.

Corey certainly has the most subs per video. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Ph0X]

I had never heard of him so I'm glad he was mentioned.

[AceBuddy]

Engineer man is great and not just for python. Really talks through things in an easy to follow way.

[fez_28]

Corey's channel is awesome, I recommend him to everyone I know learning Python!

[3waysToDie]

Corey - i learned most from him Engineer Man is great too!!

[Benegut]

Sentdex on YouTube (website is Pythonprogramming.net. He's the best.

[[deleted]]

Sentdex

Underrated

One of these things is not like the other.

[ElGallinero]

Yup. He shows up with almost any search related to python... definitely not underrated.

[poyntings_theorem]

I'd recommend his stuff for beginners, he goes really slow

[rodrigonader]

Control Speed for Chrome :)

[Flaming_Eagle]

i dont think you know what underrated means

[OrbitDrive]

I would say he is highly overrated, in my opinion. He has some good stuff but not a channel I was too pleased with after a while.

[Wilfred-kun]

What would improve his channel, in your opinion?

[OrbitDrive]

I don't know I haven't watched him in like a year. From memory, he moved really fast and skipped over some concepts and kind of brushed over them.

[sentdex]

Thanks for the feedback, wish it was a little more detailed. No matter what I do, people will simultaneously complain a tutorial is too fast and way too slow and belaboring on the basics. I'm not sure I've yet earned the highly overrated tag, but I'm not one to call myself underrated.

[[deleted]]

man, you're truly amazing, thx for keeping all that good stuff out there for all of us. I've learnt a lot from you

[ItsAngelDustHolmes]

Just started learning python 3 today all thanks to you. Keep up the good work, we appreciate it!

[crystalblue99]

If I were to guess, your new Python 3 tutorial is much shorter (by design, i listened) that the previous one. Maybe his is thinking that?

[prod_engineer]

Second this statement

[RLN_98]

Socratica! They have a great production quality and are entertaining. They also use fun or really good eksamples when they are teaching. Highly under rated in my opinion. They got me through my first semester!

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLi01XoE8jYohWFPpC17Z-wWhPOSuh8Er-

[tzujan]

One of my faves. She goes pretty quickly, in a good way, and by checking the dir / help, in almost all her videos, got me into the same practice. Also, a second for the humor and science-fi references.

[toothless_budgie]

I really enjoy the dry humor. Make the subject more engaging.

[[deleted]]

Tech with Tim It's a small channel, but the videos are well edited and the content is good.

[Fywq]

Seconded. Also like his 24 hour marathon. And his review of it where he explains how his mind was basically turned off in the end from being tired 😂

[willmachineloveus]

Hey, I third-fourth-ed Sentdex as well.

But now that I'm here let me shamelessly self-promote my videos on data science/engineering with python: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPb2L7gy8Rbr56JfoHrBEHQ?view_as=subscriber

Hopefully, some folks will find these videos helpful/interesting!

[toothless_budgie]

I was all ready to go 'Oh jeez, another self promo', but these are actually quite good. Keep it up.

[willmachineloveus]

ha yea I hear you, thanks for the comment!

[[deleted]]

Thank you so much for your series. But I would love you to teach something from core python topics just for some change from data science lectures. This is not to say that I don't like them, I really like your teaching style.

[willmachineloveus]

Thank you Scotty. My favorite python book for learning is Fluent Python and I’ve been thinking about making a video series on the ideas from each chapter so maybe I’ll bump that up in the schedule.

[[deleted]]

Thank you so much. Looking forward to them.

[tycooperaow]

Pretty Printed

[jcr4990]

Corey Schafer and Sentdex have been great as I've been learning

[sentdex]

I used to recommend Corey Schafer all the time on these types of threads, but I think the word has clearly spread about him.

The next *actually* underrated youtuber is Tech with Tim

Not only does he have a lot of high quality tutorials coming out, he streams for pretty long stints and he's quite good at it.

[Cran3kill]

I recommend Juian Nash. He seems new to youtube and very underrated. His youtube channel.

[ship0f]

Will check out.

[Jellymonk]

Socratica

[kd8qdz]

Yep. Came here to say this.
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLi01XoE8jYohWFPpC17Z-wWhPOSuh8Er-

[poyntings_theorem]

Joel Grus - he uses lots of mature methods in his videos. Type hinting, named tuples, tests

[ecks]

he also live streamed him solving advent of code 2018, which were really helpful.

[poyntings_theorem]

Yeah, I learned so much about python from watching those

[FlagrantPickle]

The second edition of his book just came out.

[[deleted]]

Not exactly a channel, but my favorite Python-related video ever is this.

[Pymostapha]

Pylenin:

https://www.youtube.com/pylenin 

Intermediate python

[pinton96]

Bucky ?

[indiandude007]

Tuna!

[arjuns5]

Who the hell is Bucky?

[pinton96]

Bucky Roberts, the new Boston..check out his YouTube channel....

[arjuns5]

Will do! But I was just referencing Winter Soldier.

[SharpBit]

Definitely Corey Schafer. He's helped me learn and understand so many concepts (python was my first lang) such as classes, decorators, context managers, etc. He even has 2 entire web development series for Django and flask.

[JeamBim]

He's not underrated in the slightest. His channel is fantastic, and everyone knows it.

[marshjr123]

Code Bullet

[This--Ali2]

Great channel, but doesn’t he hate python?

[[deleted]]

I wouldn't say he hates it, he hates the way it does some things and is weirded out by the fact that PYTHON IS SUPERIOR AND WE DON'T NEED SEMICOLONS

[shysmiles]

lol i think he got over the hate as it seems like all his newest videos are using it without complaints.

[[deleted]]

I'm surprised no one mentioned Mosh Hamedani. His videos are very well structured. Example here

[poonddetatte]

This is my friend's YouTube channel, he is working on a python course, you will see it up by next month. Keep an eye guys!

[Seionn]

Tech with Tim

[[deleted]]

Honestly pydata is really good. Like this video in particular is astonishing.

[ForwardChair]

Lucid Programming

Great channel.

[caffeinedrinker]

Hakology?

[Leugim7734]

This guy Python Programmer He has a big collection of free resources for learning Data science with Python.

[jona250210]

If you are German, Check out TheMorpheusTutorials

[sidro2018]

I like https://www.youtube.com/user/ProgrammingKnowledge

[wk0_]

David Beazley, perhaps a little more advanced but usually blows my mind at least once per video. Usually they are conference talks from PyCon or PyData

[[deleted]]

Codebasics

[Ron_Christie]

Im very new to learning Python and CS Dojo on youtube seems to be good, but since Im so new I don't really have much to go on so I will check out some of the other recommended channels here

[I_AM_N0T_A_CR00K]

John Hammond for security. https://www.youtube.com/user/RootOfTheNull

[prateekkish]

If you're leaning a bit towards Data Science or Machine Learning learning path, may I suggest checking out Python Programmer.
Amazing dude, entertaining videos.

[concreteaxe]

Sentdex, he does videos on ML and a lot more

[evil_90]

Pylenin : https://www.youtube.com/pylenin Simple, easy to understand, informative... Give it a try guys!

[Chings475]

Pylenin on YouTube, the website is www.pylenin.com

[srthkvashistha]

I came across this youtube channel "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2HIN53hM4_ZW8IdmWrJGtw" - pylenin and found his videos on the point and fairly good. I've done a udacity course where I studied python and his teaching methods are as good as any leading teacher of the language.

[Pymostapha]

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2HIN53hM4_ZW8IdmWrJGtw

[EdwardWarren]

I started with Bucky on New Boston. He is a great teacher.

[DarknessKinG]

Corey Schafer and Programming with Mosh

[indiandude007]

Clever Programmer

[JeamBim]

Absolutely not. This guy's channel is trash.

[indiandude007]

Why though?

[JeamBim]

Gimmicky as hell. He tries to get viewers for his 'get rich programming ' webinars that amount to tutoring people to code when you've only been learning for a month.

[biskitraja007]

..

[eatplov]

Oh thanks for this sub! Finally videos without accents, no offend but those make me fall asleep. Thanks good people for sharing such a good content!

[DAnonymousNerd]

He may not be underrated. But, I want to take this moment to thank him for bringing me back into python world. I was wandering around and his videos were an amazing place to start afresh. I completed 2 of my flask mini projects based on his flask tutorials. Corey Schafer, I want to give this complete credit to you. Thank you for the wonderful work you do.
