I'm going to teach a FREE remote class on Python programming. Anyone interested?

I'm trying to test a new model where we would be in a remote classroom. It'll be completely personal with a real teacher (myself) and other classmates, it won't online and impersonal (as codecademy.com for example). We'd get online at fixed days and times with real assignments.
The goal of the course is to get the basic knowledge of programming using Python, it'll be a couple of classes (5 is my estimation) and the idea is that the students all work in a collaborative project where they'll have to interact with eachother to complete the assignment. My idea is to make this the closer we can to a real classroom (but remote).
We'll be using standard tools like Google Hangouts, cloud9 IDE and maybe MadEye (so, there won't be much problems setting up the environment). You'll only need a web browser.
If you're interested please fill your data here. I'll get in touch with you personally to know your interests and your level in order to create the groups: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1yoeQvBRmjSbmGniQ2mKr0qJIoj0TiIx9u6VqdUe1ut4/viewform?usp=send_form

I've got 10+ years of experience programming and I'm also a teacher at my local university.
