This is great, I have enrolled for this and for the algo course.

I have never studied NLP but I did an algo class at a brick university some years ago.

This being stanford however I am a little worried that my theory/math skills may not be up to the standard but I am hoping to wing it and brush up on what I need as I need it.

Wish me luck!

I don't think there's any need to worry. I was very much interested in Machine Learning and took Stanford course last year and prof. Andre Ng made it look so easy with focusing on practical aspect. Now I have a grasp on how things work practically it's easy to get going with the theoretical aspect (with mostly maths) and following CS229 full video set covering the original course.

Anyway good luck!
