As a full-time worker, I found this 3-week workshop super flexible for me. The online videos and challenges are really well done and make the workshop more interactive and exciting.
the tutorial videos are clear and easy to follow! great for beginners like me who know nothing about coding before joining the class!
Felt like I learnt a lot and the videos were great and easy to follow.
Very Fun to complete, I am enjoying it so much! I love the videos and practical activities at the end of each step.
I highly recommend the course! The videos are short, clear, and easy to follow. I'm a university student and being able to organize the course around my schedule is priceless! I started with no previous knowledge and l am very happy with the results, the support team is also amazing always available to help!
The video material was super easy to follow. The workshop is the perfect introduction (as well as a refresher if it's been a while!) to HTML, CSS and JS - the information does not overwhelm you and it actually makes you excited to come back to it every week and complete the challenges/homework. The knowledge that you'll gain solely from the workshop may be limited, but it will be a solid foundation and once you get to the final project you'll realize how much you've actually learned as it will be sufficient to get you "in the zone" and allow you to have fun with it :) . The personal advice offered by the instructor is extremely useful as well. Definitely worth every cent. Excited to come back for more soon!
I absolutely loved the course: It's easy to follow due to the videos provided, which combine theory with a live demonstration of how it's done. In addition to that it's full of exercises where you have to try new things yourself and you have weekly deadlines resp. homework. This helped me a lot, because otherwise I know I would let learning slip after an exhausting week at work. :)
SheCodes has been great. I had no prior coding experience and was not sure where to begin. Luckily, I found SheCodes and in just a few weeks I've learned the basics of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The videos are very informative and everything is explained very clearly. I truly enjoyed it and am looking forward to more weeks to come.
This course has been a lovely journey throughout the HTLM, CSS and Javascript world. Very well organized, this course you will lead you step by step with short videos and useful challenges. Funny and stimulating. I couldn't recommend this highly enough.
After doing the SheCodes workshop, I knew I had to join SheCodes plus. Matt's classes and videos are very clear and easy to understand. From the most basic concepts to a more complex way of writing and understanding code, Matt's way of teaching students is easy to keep up with and will leave you with solid HTML, CSS as well as javascript knowledge and the healthy habit of wanting to learn more and more. Also thank you to slack's help on some exercises, they were really helpful and always patient 🙏 Next up is SheCodes React !💪
This is a well-planned workshop with videos, challenges and solutions crafted for HTML, CSS and JavaScript. I love how each lesson is followed by a challenge, which allows us to apply what we learn in the video class. You will be provided with the recommended solution after you have submitted yours - this really makes myself try to solve the challenge and refine my solution afterwards! Thanks, Matt and team!
SheCodes is a very well done training:insightful, practical, entertaining and flexible to meet your needs: either to just get a first flavour of coding/programming or switch career completely. I enjoyed every bit of the program (lessons , exercises, homework...) and had loads of fun completing it. I must admit that I was, at the beginning, very sceptical to the e-learning format , but the way the course is structured : simple and yet very engaging (insightful videos, fun exercises, support given ...) made the whole experience greatly enjoyable. Thank you Matt and very Well done
The course was great! The short videos followed by exercises really make you advance in a progressive and coherent way - I would definitely recommend it to gain some foundations on coding!
I had an amazing time doing this course ! 😊I learned so much more than I imagined💭. This course is perfect for anyone, who wants to start learning coding👩🏻💻. The short videos accompany all tasks ✅. I liked that we could build our skills on what we learned before and also had the freedom to discover new techniques. Thank you to Matt and the whole SheCodes Team for making coding a joyful experience!😍
I have finally completed all 3 workshops and as for the previous two I'm super satisfied. Videos and explanations are clear and easy to follow. Really loved following the SheCodes workshops and will stay updated if any new ones will be released in the future. Thank you so much. it was truly a great learning experience.
SheCodes workshops and coding courses are fantastic. The videos are very easy to follow along with, Matt explains everything really well, especially for me as a beginner! I love SheCodes! It has really helped me expand my knowledge and skills!
I loved the vanilla project because it really lets you learn a lot more about how to develop the weather website. The videos are easy to follow and understand. Thank you Matt for the journey and I can't wait to learn React in the next step!
This course is amazing and can be used for future jobs. Matt (the instructor) is coaching you through the course with videos and you can ask for help on Slack. I'm happy I attended this course and would do it over again! Thanks, Matt.
I had a great experience with SheCodes! These 3 weeks have flown by really fast. Everything from video classes to student's support was just amazing! Also, I loved the music radio station, it was fun to study while listening to it - something I would want to learn how to do myself! Matt was exceptional and unsurpassed in his competency, knowledge and simplicity of presenting information. I would absolutely recommend SheCodes to anyone who is looking to get their feet wet in the IT industry and acquire enough skills to get ready for the next level. I'm looking forward to my next course with SheCodes!
I had so much fun learning the basics of Front-end coding! The way the course and the activities are structured, helped me loads in order to understand the lessons in a better way. Moreover, the video-tutorials + the Slack group support allowed me to achieve all the challenges by myself, in addition of getting even more attracted to the programming industry. Thanks a lot for all the hard work and I hope I can afford to enroll in the next course! Cheers!
I absolutely LOVE SheCodes! Matt is amazing at explaining things and takes you through everything from the start. I would highly recommend SheCodes to everyone. I have tried with free coding lessons but never stuck at it as I was left feeling completely overwhelmed by my lack of understanding. What is great about SheCodes is that every video is engaging and they're all explained in a way that is easily understandable. Because you understand it, your confidence grows and you find yourself more and more eager to learn with every video. The sense of accomplishment when everything all comes together can't be beaten! Thank you, SheCodes!!
This workshop is a really fun and engaging way to start learning to code. Matt's videos are easy to follow, and being able to chat to other students on Slack is a super unique and motivational way of doing an online course like this. Really enjoyed it!
I started SheCodes fresh off the boat with the intention of learning coding to open more job opportunities in the future. It has been an amazing experience learning how to use HTML, CSS and Javascript. SheCodes has made it very accessible to learn, with easy to follow videos that leave you a challenge you may need to research upon to find out the solution. This has left me with not only the skills to now code, but also the skills to find out how to solve any problems I may find in my code, and where to look when I want to develop my coding skills further. SheCodes is an amazing coding resource that I would recommend to any woman with even the smallest interest in learning to code, a skill that is becoming more and more important with our increasingly technologically advancing world.
Hi everybody! My name is Joana and i'm a 30 years old kindergarten teacher from Portugal! I realized that I could be so much more than that so I've recently expand my actuation areas and, to be able to reach everyone, I need some basic programming skills to leed with websites and more...but I neveeer thought that I would like it so much! Matt explain everything to us on videos and we have Slack with a wonderful team that help us to resolve some challenges on the way. Coding can be so much fun! I enjoyed a lot to be on SheCodes and certainly it will help me on the future. Take the chance, achive, everyday, your best version! Joana
Matt and the rest of the SheCodes team made what would have taken me months on my own super easy, fast, and enjoyable to learn! Going from zero previous coding experience to understanding HTML, CSS, and JavaScript in three weeks feels like a huge accomplishment, following the videos and practice exercises made learning how to code really interesting and fun! Learning to code originally seemed daunting and like so much to take in, but is now something I really love and am looking forward to continuing!!
I have really enjoyed this workshop, the videos Matt has provided have been informative and easy to understand. The homework required to submit after each week had motivated me into wanting to learn more. I enjoyed completing the project at the end and would recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn coding. Thank you for a great course!
I had a great time learning basic skills in HTLM, CSS and JavaScript through SheCodes. The instruction videos are very clear and elaborate and the support network consisting of tutors and students is super helpfull. Though SheCodes is solely online, you really feel the support of your peers. I would highly recommend anyone who's willing to learn to do the workshop. It's 100% worth your time and money! Thanks Matt!
I really enjoyed this SheCodes course and think it has been a great introduction to HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The teaching videos were very clear and the opportunity to do the challenges straight after each video was a great way to put into practice what you had just learned.
I recently lost my job due to the pandemic and currently working as a part-timer. Because I have vacant time, I looked for a course that not only will fill my vacant time but would also help me professionally. I stumbled SheCodes in LinkedIn and enrolled in. The course itself is really informative plus the easy video instructions by Matt. Even my brother-in-law, whom is a programmer, is impressed. I hope many Ladies will invest in these courses. Thank you so much!
SheCodes Workshop has given me an inspiring overview into the world of coding and given me the confidence to develop my skills even further in the way of fun, bite-sized videos and challenges. Thanks to Matt and the SheCodes team for your support in taking the step into the coding industry!
I learned a lot during SheCodes React, It was challenging but the constant support from the team on slack made the process easier. The videos Matt made are detailed and easy to understand. I would definitely recommend SheCodes React!
I love Shecodes, I have learned so much JavaScript was a challenge but the project videos from Matt really helped me pull through... Thank you I look forward to participating in the SheCodes React. I really wish you had more bootcamps that we can take I have enjoyed the two I have taken thus far.
I took a BIG FAT chance, by seeing an AD somewhere and jumped right into Shecodes because I loved what Shecodes stood for. I'm someone with limited experience and brand new to the field. Just to finally complete the final project and understand the language of coding has been SUPER rewarding for me. The structure of the class didn't always make sense in the beginning, but TRUST the process and the guidance. By the way, Matt's voice is sooooo soothing and easy to follow that I was constantly re-playing his videos without losing focus.
SheCodes is hands down the most valuable introduction to coding bootcamp available for women right now! The videos are easy to follow along with and the challenges and homework they give you along the way ensure you're actually retaining the material. I can't recommend it enough.
This is a great workshop! Between the lecture videos and the challenges in each lesson, the material is delivered in a clear, concise way. Before any other beginner coding workshops or courses, and believe me, I've looked at TONS, I'd suggest SheCodes. It's the most beginner friendly workshop I've found and the community is so supportive and talented!
I've always seen coding as something difficult and mainly for people who are tech-and-maths lovers. Thanks to Matt and his videos, easy to understand, I've totally changed my point of view and realize that everyone can do it, with a little practice. Thanks again, and thanks to all the SheCodes team, you guys do a great job !
During this difficult time, continue to learn is one of the best options I have to get through the anxiety related to uncertainty /challenges, I then found SheCodes. SheCodes introductory workshop was very easy for me to follow and reach the weekly objective, I really recommend this as people's attention is constantly switching, the idea of short videos per topics is great and wouldn't make you feel overwhelmed that there are so much tasks following ahead.
It was a great experience that encouraged me to continue my personal development in this field. The workshop is well defined. Ordered classes, sufficient explanations, ease to follow logical path , slac support group encourage you constantly to not to give up and move forward. Esthetics of the website, workshop and videos is very high and well appreciated. Well done ! :)
I have completed a few courses recently and I believe SheCodes has the best set up I've seen. The online community on Slack is friendly, helpful, inclusive and you can find all the help you need if you get stuck on the tasks. SheCodes has found the perfect balance between providing support and giving the users flexibility to complete the course in their own time. Matt's videos are clear and easy to follow! I'm really enjoying the course and I am signing up for the React Plus as I want to keep learning. I also really love seeing everyones final projects!
My first coding course on sheCodes has been an amazing experience. I had never thought that I would like and enjoy coding so much. The structure of the classes is very well-organized and the videos are super well-explained. I'm super excited to continue to the next level!
The SheCodes introduction workshop is easy and fun to follow. The videos have great quality. It is also great that not everything is given through each lesson, and research must be done. Also, having a feedback on the homeworks is truly useful.
SheCodes offers a great first experience with coding. The videos are short and easy to follow which makes the training really enjoyable.
i've had so much fun learning and experimenting with the different coding workshops and find all the info very useful and easy to understand i've also found it really useful that i can go back and watch past videos
SheCodes courses was really great new experience. I am already enchanted and looking for new levels of coding. I really enjoyed all videos, given information, also Matt Delac has good English and nice voice, which really helped me not to scared of all amount of new tools.
I'm new to web development and this was my first introduction to coding. Matt's teaching dynamic and guidance videos really impressed me, as did his willingness, and that of his colleagues, to be available for questions on Slack. I'm excited to continue this new chapter of my professional career. Thanks Matt and the SheCodes team for a great experience!
Great course for building on the initial Workshop and pushing your coding boundaries. Videos were great, and I liked the support that was given on Slack, as things are not handed to you and sometimes you need help to put all the information together.
I'd long been curious about exploring the world of coding but didn't know where to start or if I was even capable of learning how to code. Two weeks ago, I noticed an ad for one of the Express Classes and registered on a whim, taking it as a sign that my time to start coding was here and now. After that, I immediately enrolled in the Introductory Workshop, and I'm so glad I did. SheCodes has nailed it with a formula of easy-to-follow instructional videos, challenges, and solutions, making coding accessible and fun. Each lesson kept me engaged and excited to proceed. I realized how much I looked forward to coming home from work and continuing my lessons. I truly enjoyed building my final project and applying all of the concepts to create my very first landing page using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I think it's safe to say that I've discovered a new passion for coding and look forward to learning more when I enroll in SheCodes Plus React!
I have always been super fascinated by coding but didn't think it was something I'd ever be able to learn. After signing up for SheCodes... I was SO wrong! Following along with the videos and then practicing right afterwards was great for retention purposes - coding and designing a landing page (especially the weather app exercise - that blew my mind) was great for confidence purposes!!! There is so much more creativity to the craft than I thought before, and I'm looking forward to continuing my coding journey :)
I highly recommend SheCodes for anyone looking to learn more about coding! The videos were easy to follow along with and there is tons of support! I appreciated the structure of videos and challenges each week. Can't wait to continue onto the next course!
As a Makeup Artist with ZERO coding knowledge, I can't believe how easy it has been to learn with the help of Matt and his amazing team. The videos are easy to follow and very engaging. I would recommend this course to anyone with a desire to learn basic html/css/coding and JS. I am so excited to start SheCodes Plus! 🦋
I really stepped out of my comfort zone with this workshop but I am so glad I did. I've been interested in learning coding and I'm really glad I took the plunge. The videos were easy to follow along with, there is tons of support and SheCodes is a great way to learn about coding!
SheCodes is an incredible platform. The videos contain concise and clear explanations, the challenges make us immediately practice what we have learned and the final project has an effect of satisfaction for having to use everything that was taught during the modules. It was an excellent introduction, great experience and I can't wait for the advanced workshop! Thank you, SheCodes!
The course helped me get a better understanding of coding elements but sometimes I felt as though the videos could have explained more what was to come in the challenges. It's also unclear what makes the workshop specifically directed toward women.
I had no previous coding experience and I found this workshop to be equally fun and challenging. I appreciated the structure of videos and challenges each week. I am excited to continue learning in the next workshop!
SheCodes has been a fantastic experience and I feel like it's pitched just right for me. The videos are really informative and the lessons and challenges encourage you to find out more information for yourself. I feel like I have learned so much more on this course than I have on other courses and I would highly recommend it.
These real-world projects help you get an understanding of the basics of web design. You feel so proud to complete your first web page! Matt has easily accessible videos, which help you gain confidence in exploring things you don't quite know about yet.
I learned loads, I still cannot believe I have created a fully functional app all by myself!!! I was worried the online course would not be sufficient or lack support, but I am pleased to confirm this was not at all the case. The videos/tutorials are very clear and I am very thankful to Matt and the team (overall João) for all the assistance throughout the course!! Highly recommend it for anyone who desires to start coding.
Coming into the workshop I had no prior experience at all, but Matt made it easy to understand each lesson. Working full-time, it is hard to find courses that fit your schedule but SheCodes is different, you can watch the videos on your own time. Would definitely recommend it!
I have really enjoyed learning to code with Matt. All the videos are clear and concise, making it really easy to follow along and revisit each step. Being able to complete the course in my own time has been really helpful, especially as I'm working full time. I'm looking forward to using the skills I've learned in my job and beyond!
When I first stumbled upon the SheCodes website and workshops, I never thought I would fall in love with coding in such a short period of time! The video tutorials were very informative and beautifully presented and I can't wait for the continuation of my journey in the more advanced workshops. :)
I loved this beginners course and will definitely be signing up to the more advanced course! I'm a visual learner so I loved the video tutorials and the documentation for each class was helpful too. Finishing the final project was very satisfying! I know there is a lot more to coding and I can't wait to get started :)
SheCodes is a great workshop. I was so excited to start learning coding and after first 3 weeks I even want to learn more. All video lessons so well made, great explanation and challenges where you can practice everything you've learn. I signed up for a React Plus workshop too and I know this just a great start. And I'm glad I did it with SheCodes. Thank you!
I love SheCodes! The platform is great, videos/challenges are helpful and the ongoing group Slack is amazing!
After taking the Free Coding Class, I knew I had to enroll in the SheCodes Workshop right away. I never thought of coding as an option for me, but having the free class to see what it's all about was super helpful. I would have never dreamed I'd have so much fun learning these new skills! Matt's videos are excellent and the support you get through Slack is outstanding. I can't wait to enroll in SheCodes Plus React.
SheCodes plus was a great experience! I loved putting my basic HTML skills to the test and improving on those skills. Working full time and then coming home to be a full time mom, SheCodes let me learn at my own pace. The videos are easy to follow and Matt explains everything in a way that writing, reading, and understanding code is almost second nature now. For anyone looking to expand on their currently knowledge or picking up so new mad skills, I would 1000% recommend SheCodes! I can't wait to start my next course!
I really enjoyed SheCodes Plus Course. I learn so much and learned how to make a weather application. It was helpful to learn through Matt' s videos explaining the lessons step-by-step. I would recommend this workshop to everyone.
I have learned in 3 weeks more than I did in 3 months of self study in free courses online. I like the pace of the course and the videos are easy to follow.
SheCodes is a good platform to start with if you are interested in learning coding basics, it's fun to work around with the codes and setup what you like. Lessons are break down into short videos with notes and solutions right after - this allows you to digest very easily and try it on your own right away! :) Happy coding!
👍 It is easy to follow Matt´ s words and actions during the video tutorials. Workshops are user-friendly, inspiring and full of practical advices. 🌟 SheCodes Team, you give women a chance to start a new journey and you make it much easier, with a supportive approach and with a little bit of fun, too. 🎈 Moreover you build a community of people who share similar interests, hopes and worries. 💛 Thank you for all of that!
I really enjoyed SheCodes Plus Course. It was very beneficial and was very simple to learn through the lesson videos that Matt was explaining. At the end of the course I was able to create a weather project and I couldn't be more happier! Thank you! 😀
Bite-sized information through videos which were really easy and clear to understand. Love that we had small challenges to complete after each lesson and that helped to reinforce the learning in me. Being able to clear the lessons and homework in my own time within the week instead of in a particular day was also helpful as I could learn at my own pace, which would have otherwise dampened my motivation. :)
This class is so much fun. It's great that you can go through the videos and watch them again. Coding feels like an endless logic puzzle, and Matt is a fabulous instructor. He really takes his time moving through the steps and building the blocks of knowledge for you.
This class was a good starting point for beginners and people working a full time schedule. Class videos were quick and most information needed to complete challenges was given to you. The key to understand and learn how to code is to build it yourself, instead of copying and pasting. It was rewarding seeing my work come to life and also problem solve all of my errors on my own.
I found this workshop so interesting and engaging! Before I started I had no experience in coding, so I was very apprehensive to enroll. I'm so happy that I signed up because now I'm confident with using the basic coding languages! The videos are so easy to follow along and the challenges at the end of each lesson are great to check your understanding of the topics. The SheCodes team on Slack were so helpful too! I would definitely encourage anyone to sign up and learn a new skill!
It was a great learning experience. The lecture videos were simple and easy to understand. I've enjoyed the course and have expanded my skills in HTML,CSS and JavaScript. I'm glad that now I can code confidently, thanks to SheCodes team.
Matt was such a great teacher and all of the videos were easy to follow. He also makes sure to not teach every single thing so that you have to do a bit of research and messing around to figure things out. Also loved how helpful the Slack channel was and never felt put off to ask questions in there
I was always intrigued by the world of coding, but it looked so hard to learn. I took the free workshop kind of as a joke because I never thought I could learn such a complex language. But then once I saw how Matt taught, I realized I might be able to do it! I absolutely loved everything about how this course was taught. The step-by-step videos, the little tasks at the end of each topic, and the breakdown of coding was so helpful. I am so happy I took this course, and I can proudly say I learnt a new skill. :) Thanks SheCodes!
Amazing Class!! Really broke down HTML and CSS step by step to understand the principals. Enjoyed the instructor's videos and exercises a lot!
This was the perfect next step after SheCodes Plus, I feel like I expanded my knowledge and was able to get more comfortable with coding in general in addition to experiencing a great introduction to React. Overall the structure of the class is really easy to follow, the videos are just long enough to show the concepts but not so long as to be overwhelming and Matt is great at explaining things in a comprehensive and accessible way. I can't wait to learn even more and I hope to be able to break into a tech career soon using the knowledge I gained from all my SheCodes classes!
SheCodes has really been wonderful and approachable. I have enjoyed learning and having the support and encouragement from the Slack Group. The comprehensive videos by Matt were a great resource to learn from. Learning the basics of CSS, HTML and Javascript and then applying them to projects has been incredibly motivating and fun! I look forward to learning more to be the website development queen!
SheCodes is the best! I began as a novice with the intro to coding class and quickly fell in love with coding through Matt's easy-to-follow videos and Joao's helpful support on challenges and homework. After graduating from the intro workshop, I immediately enrolled in SheCodes Plus and then SheCodes React. Improving my coding literacy and building the weather app project from scratch has been such an empowering experience. If the SheCodes team ever offers courses on any other coding languages, I will be first in line to sign up!
This course is definitely a great start for me to step into the coding world. The tutorial is easy to understand so it helps me to constantly build up my confidence. I like there is always a challenge after the tutorial video so I do have an opportunity to practice what I have just learned! I would recommend giving a try if you're interested in coding :)
Really loved this workshop! Matt's videos were simple and concise and very informative without giving that feeling of being overwhelmed. The workshop itself was a reasonable price. There were certain "challenges" that were definitely challenges and google becomes your friend, personally I would do a quick google search and MDN offers a solution but rarely a well explain explanation, here comes SLACK. It was a great place for all of us to bounce our ideas off one another and ask for help for challenges, homework, and the project. Very helpful! There's a sense of pride whenever you complete a challenge or homework and I love that. Coding is also very impressive to those who aren't at all into the world of coding, so to show someone your entire code they're completely floored by it all haha! Would recommend this course to anyone interested in coding.
After completing the 3 week introductory course with SheCodes, I couldn't wait to carry on coding with SheCodes Plus. Overall such an excellent & well thought out course that is really enjoyable, challenging, and without a doubt extremely rewarding! I have learnt so much in a short amount of time and I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to do the same. In SheCodes plus I began to realise the power of what a few lines of code can really do in JavaScript! It is a jump up from the introductory course for sure, but as always the support is amazing. Slack is used through out the course as a way to ask questions with other students and the SheCodes team. Thanks to Matt for providing excellent video tutorials, and a shoutout to João who is amazing with tech support!! I am now looking forward to now starting the React course! 👩🏻💻
I would higly recommend this workshop as the videos explain everything one would need to know for their introduction into coding. I was quite intimidated by this field but always wanted to try it out and ended up enjoying it so much I would keep learning and challenge myself for more!
The lessons are so easy to follow and take in. Matt just seems so enthusiastic in the videos and that really motivated me the whole way through!
This workshop is amazing! The learning structure is very easy to follow with very well paced video tutorials that explain everything step by step and challenges that make you replicate the tutorials to really instill the knowledge in you. Support is there 24/7 if you need it and the coding is taught in a really fun way, I would definitely recommend to anyone, you don't even need that much time set aside for it.
I loved my first 3 weeks! I didn't have any experience or background in this field. It's not easy but not boring, and this is what I was looking for! Matt's videos are great, not going to lie I had to watch them more than once ha!! I would love to keep going and take the next step with SheCodes!
My background is in Psychology, project management and psychometric tests and I've always been interested in technology, especially with everything going digital in our current climate. I thought I'd give SheCodes a go, as I've tried other free courses on other sites but it wasn't as interactive and I couldn't get help when I needed. With SheCodes, everything is at your own pace as the videos are bite-sized and you can go back if you need to. However, the homework keeps you accountable. I enjoyed doing the challenges as I prefer learning by doing. The staff and fellow students are really friendly and helpful if you are stuck. Coding might seem scary at first, but it really isn't! If you've been thinking about learning to code, go for this course, it's a great way to learn and build your skillset!
Shecodes introduction to coding was great! All the videos and challenges make it easy to digest and to apply in your project, the format is really good, I would recommend it to anyone that is looking to get the web development basics. Can't wait to start the other workshops 😊
I've never considered myself to be a "computer person". My dad is a Computer Engineer and growing up I admired that but only from at a distance. In my early 20's I dropped out of a traditional 4yr college and began my journey into Cosmetology. Once I passed my state board certifications I worked in several salons and I even got a part-time job as a banquet server. Soon I realized that I did not want to be a hairstylist but instead I pursued Hospitality and that's where I made my career over the past 10yrs. In March I was put on furlough for what my company said would only be 2 months. 2 months came and went and to this day I still do not know when or if I will ever return to my previous job. I started to think that I needed to change my career and did a lot of soul searching over the past few months. After narrowing down my search I decided to take a chance and start some coding classes. These first classes were very basic and less than stimulating but they made my brain work in a different way and it was challenging for me which is something that I have been longing to experience since being furloughed. I watched video after video and found that I did not like the lack of structure and that I knew I could benefit from some curriculum to follow as well. As I was scrolling through Facebook (thanks cookies!) an add for SheCodes came across my screen and I applied shortly after. These past 3 weeks have been challenging, fun and have made me feel like there will be a new future for me.
Joining SheCodes during the pandemic turned out to be a great idea. REACT is definitely a complicated language but, with the expertise of Matt's videos and the online community built around the program, it's been a fun way to learn something new. Completing all 3 programs has been quite the task but, I am stoked to finish and excited to see where this new found skill takes me.
I enjoyed following this 3 weeks course and for me it was a great way to fresh up my coding-memory. The course is very well structured with easy to follow video's and I can highly recommend it to anyone!
Absolutely loved the video tutorials and the added easy read 'cheat sheets' to jog the memory. looking forward to doing the next workshop with Matt and the team!
A great introduction to coding with step-by-step videos and challenges on HTML, CSS and JavaScript! I've learned so much in just 3 weeks and want to keep learning!
The workshop was very well structured with helpful step-by-step videos, available resources, tips, and a very interactive chat platform when help was needed. I have a much better understanding of how these codes are formatted and structured and can't wait to advance further in the future.
It was a lot of fun these past three weeks and I highly recommend this workshop for women who are not sure where to start. The videos are fun and easily able to follow. I had zero experience coming into this workshop and I loved every minute of it. It was not overwhelming, the support system is amazing and because of it I was able to complete the assignments and enjoy making them along the way. 😃
I really enjoyed the challenges, and the videos were pretty easy to understand. I also learned a lot by seing other projects from the Slack chat. Can't wait to see what else I can do in the next course 😊
I always wanted to understand the logic behind a code and thanks to Matt, i can read HTML, CSS and JavaScript! The videos are really well done, easy to understand and repetitive, so the new things really sink in. I am very thankful to have done the workshop and can recommend it to everyone 🥰
SheCodes was very hands on. In the challenges and homework, the lesson videos gave enough insight to complete most of what was required but it also pushed me to find some solutions on my own either in the slack community or through google.
