I've been a graphic designer for about 10 years now, I decided 3 years ago that if i wanted to make it in the industry I had to learn how to code. So I started doing online training. HTML , CSS3, Javascript, Wordpress theme development etc. Websites like www.teamtreehouse.com and www.lynda.com really helped me get started.... all this sites are great and I really recommend them... but the problem is you have no one to ask when you have questions and this created holes in my learni...
I've been a graphic designer for about 10 years now, I decided 3 years ago that if i wanted to make it in the industry I had to learn how to code. So I started doing online training. HTML , CSS3, Javascript, Wordpress theme development etc. Websites like www.teamtreehouse.com and www.lynda.com really helped me get started.... all this sites are great and I really recommend them... but the problem is you have no one to ask when you have questions and this created holes in my learning where after 3 years I didnt feel confident to apply for Web development jobs. I was pationated about web development so I decided to quit my job and go to Coding Dojo (HUGE RISK).
*The first thing I have to say is... Coding Dojo is not for everyone. If you know nothing about coding and you expect to leave the course with a great job right away you are wrong. Unless you are a brainiac and a SUPER fast learner (web development learning takes time)
*If you have some experience and you are passionate about coding then Coding Dojo is for you. LONGGGG days of coding and lots of practice WILL make you a better programmer. But is ALL UP TO YOU. they wont push you. What they will offer is an environment where you can be surrounded by like minded people and where you can code 12 hours a day if you wanted to.
* A regular day at the dojo is as follow: around 9am algorithim class. When I say class I dont mean they will "teach" you algorithims. What they will do is give you an algorithim problem that you have to figure out how to solve in a team of 3. This can be scary, but with the help of your cohorts and with time you get better at them.
You will do this for about and hour, hour and thirty minutes.
Then you have a short lecture about the days work and whats expected for that day
then you go into the platform and start working on it. The platform is basically a combination of Videos, quizzes, and assignments. They are no different than any other video training out there. again, the difference is the environment you are and awesome group of people that surrounds you.
In the afternoon you get annother short lecture about what youve been working on that day etc. this is the time to ask questions....
and really you do this for 3 stacks at the end of the stack you have to do a project in teams or as an individual to showcase what you have learned.
So here is my final thought: Is not about the platform, is not about the three stacks, hell is not about coding dojo.... This is about putting you in an environment where you have NO CHOICE but to learn or better yet where you are surrounded by people just like you and learning together.
Can you learn all this at home YES. can you learn it without spending all this money YES. iT will take you longer for sure.. you will have learning holes thats true. So if you are going to attend the coding dojo KNOW you will get what you put in.
Take the three months to learn and forget about any other aspect of your life and you will be succesful.
PS. I got a job 2 weeks after I was done with an AMAZING salary that I would of never be able to get if it wasent for me going to coding dojo.
If you have questions please feel free to email me :)
