4Geeks Academy

If you are thinking this is going to be easy you are totally wrong, learn to code can be compared to learn a new language, the more you use ut the more you will excel it.
Nevertheless, 4geeks is making this path smoother, teachers and mentors are always willing to help you as long as you are pushing hard yourself to learn new skills and power up your coding knowledge. Read less

Tras muchas entrevistas con diferentes academias, decidí matricularme en 4Geeks ¿Por qué? Pues en un primer momento por su programa de mentorías de por vida y por el trato recibido por parte de Fernando, pero una vez finalizado el bootcamp os puedo decir que la elección que tomé fue la mejor,  antes de comenzar el bootcamp tienes una preparación previa para que puedas familiarizarte con los conceptos y lenguajes que aprenderás durante el curso, en todo momento te sentirás  apoyado y siempre hay alguien a tu lado para poder ayudarte con las dudas ya sea un profesor, un mentor o la propia comunidad.
Su metodología es muy diferente a lo que estarás acostumbrado, pero una vez finalices el bootcamp, no solo habrás aprendido a ser autosuficiente, sino que podrás decir con mucho orgullo que eres programador. Read less

Me encantó haber hecho parte de 4Geeks academy, ha sido una experiencia muy positiva desde los compañeros con los que compartí hasta los profesores con quienes trabajamos durante los 4 meses, los profesores son altamente calificados y siempre dispuestos a ayudar incluso fuera de los horarios de clase. 
La academia también cuenta con tutorías ilimitadas, lo que es bastante útil sobretodo en momentos en los que me sentía bloqueada o estancada.
La academia también cuenta con asesoría personalizada en cómo buscar trabajo y cómo presentar una entrevista una vez terminas el curso, lo que es genial especialmente para aquellos que no tienen experiencia profesional. 
En general lo recomiendo 100% :)  Read less

Te acompañan desde el principio en tu viaje. Cualquier duda o problema que puedas tener te lo intentan resolver lo antes posible. La metodología de aprendizaje es muy buena, ya que está enfocada en la práctica, lo que te ayuda a coger muy buen nivel de programación a lo largo del curso. 100% recomendado. Read less

It was a very good experience, the teachers were amazing, they were always ready to help us no matter when or how, and the academy really cares about how we feel and communicated with us a lot providing us career support and creating a big community between students. Read less

Todo el curso está bastante bien planteado, desde el prework hasta la presentación del proyecto final. Me encanta la metodología utilizada, donde cada día tenemos que poner en práctica lo hemos visto en clase, de esta forma vamos consolidando todo lo vamos aprendiendo. Y además  siempre que tengamos alguna dificultad podemos recurrir a las mentorías y sacar todas nuestras dudas.
Es increíble lo que he podido aprender en tan poco tiempo. Read less

The pros are that you will have a large community supporting you. At the beginning you will be almost alone in the new world of programming when you do the pre-work for the course. However, once you get to know your teacher and the rest of the students you will gradually realize that this seemingly lonely environment is actually a community where we all face the same challenges. We all support each other gradually, of course at the beginning you will be somewhat reticent, reserved, because it is not normal to find yourself in a world where community support is the norm and being alone, reserved, isolated without helping others or being helped is the least usual, although you can opt for that path, but I warn you that it will not be easy to opt for that path. 

This is a path of challenges, defeats that soon become triumphs. At the beginning you feel helpless and incapable but as you advance, you overcome stagnations and generate those euphoric victories, you become addicted to this world of programming. Of course, all this is thanks to the immense support that you have from all sides along the bootcamp, you forget that you are in remote because as soon as you ask for help, (yes, you have to get used to confess something as difficult as "I can't, I'm stuck, I don't see the error" and they tell you, you are missing a semicolon in that line) all the mechanisms move in your favor to convert into victories those jams that seem to have no end.

In conclusion, this bootcamp delivers like no other. It teaches you to be passionate about this world, but it also makes you wonder if this is really the path you want to follow. Because no matter how smart you are, this river only flows if you are really determined to move forward without fear of waterfalls.

The teachers and mentors are wonderful, at least the one I had, Emanuel Martinez, taught me more than any of my teachers throughout my life. Victor and Marcos make things clear and always encourage you to keep going despite everyone.

The treatment is personal, the platforms are ready to be used, and they help you at all times, even when they let you hit the ground with your face. 

After finishing the bootcamp they help you build a resume you would have never imagined, perfect your linkedin and know well what you need to do to get the attention of recruiters.
And rest assured that if you don't know how to tackle a programming or job search problem you have lifetime mentoring, the 4Geeks Slack community that is IMMENSE and all the support of your mentors at your disposal.

The best investment of my entire life. Thanks to this bootcamp my life finally has a way to go after being more than 5 years spinning from one job to another like a spinning top.

Thank you, 4Geeks Academy Read less

The title perfectly describes my experience with this course and with everyone involved in this school. They go the extra mile to help you in whatever you need to finish your projects, exercises or to make you move forward in your career.
After doing this course, for sure, you can do your own app with all the intricacies. Read less

I’ve been wanting to learn how to code but never found the time with a full time job, but then I saw 4GeeksAcademy offering a part time full stack bootcamp, and decided to spend a few hard months to learn. 

The part time structure was with 1 mentor and 1 assistant throughout the whole course for each lesson of 3 hours, 3 times a week, with a flip classroom concept of students are to learn before the class, and listen to explanation in class after already having gone through the material. 

The bootcamp has a good structure easing in the ‘coding mindset’ with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and eventually SQL and Python.

If I were to give a negative feedback, it would be that the slowly easing in front end was making it rather easy to digest, but when it came to backend and endpoints, it was rather fast paced comparing to the frontend part of the course - although I have to say I wasn’t an example student studying coding hardcore pushing everyday.

For a full time working person, this is manageable, although I missed a few classes while traveling, Marta the mentor of my bootcamp offered mentorship sessions, to explain topics that I missed.

I would definitely recommend - hours wise this is perfect for someone working full time office hours, although the 3x3 hours per week is not to be taken lightly - students are expected to learn and code on their own outside of the classes, to be able to follow the designed learning path.

Mentors and assistants are very nice and friendly, passionate about coding as well as getting people to learn - the course also creates a great community within the class of ~6 people in my case, I believe it’s maximum 14 people in one class. 

There’s also lifetime support on the slack channels, finding a job, or just mentorship on anything. 

On the finance side, I have to say they offer a rather considerate support, they are in partnership with a payment/credit company, students can choose to pay in installments, as small as 100 euros a month, and obviously paying in full also works. (Not sure if this is only applicable in Europe) Read less

Llegue de cero en este mundo de la programación y debo decir que hacer este Bootcamp fue una decisión más que acertada, en 4Geeks Academy aprendí las bases de lo que necesita para ser un desarrollador Full Stack, la experiencia fue muy positiva desde el principio y todo el staff te hace sentir muy cercano y que perteneces a una gran comunidad. La calidad de los profesores es incuestionable, son muy pacientes y se encargan de enseñarte todo una y otra vez hasta que lo aprendes, por otra parte la metodología de aprendizaje y los proyectos a realizar son desafiantes pero muy entretenidos y te hacen aprender mucho (sobretodo el proyecto final). 
No les voy a mentir... Hay que dedicarle muchas horas e intentar estar siempre al dia para no quedarte atrás pero lo disfruté mucho y hasta se me hizo corto, si pudiera repetirlo lo haría sin dudarlo. En lo personal apenas al terminar pude conseguir mis primeras prácticas de las cuales sigo aprendiendo y gracias a las habilidades adquiridas estos últimos meses también voy a empezar a hacer mis primeros proyectos freelance. 
Si quieres ser un programador esta academia es el mejor sitio para empezar!. Read less

Un excelente equipo, con basta experiencia en programacion, ademas acompaña al profesor una persona de apoyo que se nivela a ti y entiende mas de la mano tus dudas , como inexperto en el area. Su plan de estudio es completo y con un fuerte ahinco en el desarrollo practico que permite que quede claro todo.

Para mi una experiencia grata que me deja todo a favor para mi desarrollo profesional Read less

After several years away from the world of programming. Trying to catch up, there was so much technology that I didn't know where to start. Through an advertisement on the internet I found this academy. They gave me many facilities for financing and good expectations of getting a good job afterwards. Very practical training and with the necessary advice, even after finishing the bootcamp, to move forward without problems.

It has been a great experience! Discover step by step the technologies that bring me closer to this new world so long awaited for me. They have been very patient with me, explaining and explaining again everything that I could not understand, with the maximum availability. It has been a real pleasure and I hope that now it will open the doors of the sector for me. Read less
