    Well Thought Out Curriculum

    I have been very impressed with the thoughtfulness that must have gone into the development of this boot camp. The videos have been easy to digest and the projects reinforce what is learned. For the price, I doubt that there is a better valued program out there.

     I can confidently say that it is an outstanding program for anyone interested in learning programming, regardless of their skill level. The platform's ability to cater to both complete beginners and more advanced students is truly commendable.




    One of the standout features of Freemote is their commitment to staying up to date with the ever-evolving world of programming. The constant updates to their curriculum ensure that students are always learning the latest technologies and best practices. This dedication to providing relevant and current material sets freemote.com apart from other programming education platforms.




    Another aspect that truly impressed me is the inclusion of live code reviews for the more advanced projects. This feature allows students to receive direct feedback on their code from experienced professionals, helping them improve their skills and gain valuable insights. The opportunity to have one's work evaluated by experts in the field is a rare gem that Freemote offers.




    Furthermore, Freemote not only prepares its students to work for companies but also equips them with the necessary skills to thrive as freelancers. The freelance curriculum provided by freemote.com is nothing short of amazing. It covers all aspects of freelancing, including client management, project scoping, and effective communication. This comprehensive approach ensures that graduates are well-prepared for the challenges and opportunities that come with freelancing.

    Love, love, love it ❤️

    So, I already did a one-year course in Web Development (full-time). I can't say I regret it, I learned a lot and it was very interesting. Still, after one year I have the problem that I am now a jack of all trades and a master of none. That's why I decided to do Freemote on top. And what can I say? I am a few weeks into it and I love it so much! The Html and CSS part gives you what you need - not more, not less. Perfect, if you don't want to waste your time. For me, it was a welcome opportunity to practice my skills by doing the projects. And now I am learning to be a Shopify expert - still love the course! If I could go back in time and had to decide, which one, Freemote or the one-year course, I would definitely choose Freemote! A word of caution, though. This is not a sprint, this is a marathon. For most people, it will be longer than 7 weeks, maybe a lot longer (in my opinion). You need to be persistent and you need to be a learner and a problem-solver, or you will not succeed in learning how to code anyway, no matter which road you choose. For me, I believe in laying a strong foundation, that's why I wouldn't pace through the course anyway. That having said, I believe this course is an excellent choice, one of the best courses I ever did (and I tried a lot). One last piece of advice, I believe it matters a lot if you like your teachers or not. So check out Jan and Aaron on YouTube. Ok, now go for it ;-)

    More Than I Could Have Hoped For!

    Read more Read less of Aaron Reed Melton's review
    I came into Freemote with NO coding, development, or programming experience. I found this industry fascinating and wanted to be apart of it but was sure someone like me had no place in it with no formal education and already being 28 years old. Freemote helped me believe I could make a strong career yet and provide for my family in a way I never believed I would be able to. Freemote is tough but they trim the fat from this higher level, technical information and make it as digestible as possible for true novice students. I am well into the program and I understand more than I thought I could, I've been able to revisit or re-do all the content I've needed to ensure I felt confident in the material before proceeding. I am 100% convicted that I WILL get a job in the tech industry and that front-end web development and freelancing is only the beginning. Aaron, Jan, and the entire Freemote team have given life to the dream that I can love what I do for a living and I can be more than a grunt. The price they ask is trivial compared to the surpassing joy of the life they are helping me to build. All that is truly required of me, is a steel hard dedication and an iron will to press forward and master a task I once thought too great for me and that is to be a developer.

    This has been one of the best decisions I have made in years.

    Read more Read less of Doriana Kalaj's review
    This Bootcamp is something else. I started approaching coding a year or so ago on self-learning platforms.
    My learning wasn't going as planned. I felt lost and couldn't keep my motivation and discipline up. One of the main reasons was that I didn't have a clear goal and had no one to help me.

    Before finding Freemote, I was considering another University of Chicago Bootcamp. They asked me for $12k, for 6 months of online classes and nothing guaranteed when I finished.

    Right after that, I stumbled upon an ad from Aaron. I recognized myself in everything he said and immediately sent my information to get an interview with one of their recruiters.

    The recruiter, Steve, was super helpful and kind. He gave me all the info I needed. The price was very affordable (compared to the $12k I had been asked days before 😅).
    I bought the course the next day.

    I'm on my third week and Woow!!! So far so good.
    I really feel like I'm being followed by professionals. Whenever I have a problem I have someone to answer me within 48h.
    The lessons are clear and I love the fact that the videos are short but very comprehensive.
    I sent the first project for feedback and was sent a personalized video where my code was checked.
    The Facebook community is also great and really friendly.

    This Bootcamp is giving me a direction in life. I now have a clear goal in mind and I also have mentors and coaches following me and helping me in order to achieve my goals.
    I seriously think this has been one of the best decisions I have made in years.

    Truly grateful for finding this program 🙏🏻

    The course is very well done in everything from helping you understand the business side of being a freelancer to writing code. And it takes you from no experience to the expert level on both sides very fast. I couldn't be more happier than choosing this lifestyle for a job and I have freemote to thank for exposing it to me.

    This school is absolutely amazing, I love the hands on that you get with all the lessons practices and projects but I also love how you get a personalized video on your project assessments. so far from what I've seen week one is by far the hardest but most rewarding week since you have HTML and CSS thrown at you. I learned so much and how to use both languages pretty well that I was shocked at myself at how much I learned. If you decide to take this course don't let week 1 scare you off. It's difficult yes but keep at it no matter how long it takes you to finish. I have been doing this course for 6 hours a day and just finished week 2 after 5 days, it took me 3 weeks to finish week 1. Just keep at it and I promise you will be especially happy with your results

    Amazing Learn and Earn Program

    Read more Read less of Seth Miller's review
    I am a former Full Stack Bootcamp graduate. I attended with the plan of learning skills to freelance. But I felt lost afterwards and wasn't confident enough to market those skills. I also didn't have a niche I could fall into. 

    That is where Freemote became so beneficial to me. I am just getting into the portion where I will learn freelancing skills and tips. Learning this Shopify niche is amazing. On the surface Shopify seems easy enough that anyone could do it. But that is not the case. Being training and skilled in this niche should help me earn some side cash while I learn coding. And learning and earning on real world projects is critical to success. 

    I also want to stress the importance of the network that follows.

    Just it time Web Dev course (5 out of 5 for me)

    Read more Read less of Saleh Fadel's review
    In early 2021 I was enrolled in a subscription course to learn web dev and because I have a very demanding job I couldn't keep up and I couldn't finish within the time I had and I was thinking about extending.

    Luckily, on YouTube I saw an ad for Freemote, and I really liked the idea especially the part that its self-paced. What helped even more is that the course was from Aaron Jack, I was already watching his videos on YouTube (he is a YouTuber as you know) and I already felt he is a trustworthy, genuine person.

    What made things even better for me is that just before I enrolled I had 2 questions, one about feedback (mentors or instructors on course) and if indeed I would receive it if needed? and the other about if instead of e-commerce freelance web developer, what if wanted to find a normal job as a web developer working in a company or business, would the course help me achieve that? and I got the 2 answers after emailing freemote in a very short period of time (like 24 hours) and it was Aaron Jack himself and his answers were thorough and what I was looking for. Basically for feedback (mentors or instructors) the answer was yes and regarding normal web dev jobs, I was reassured that the course would be excellent for that and Aaron explained to me this was a question a lot of people were asking. E-commerce gigs on your resume would be "real world experience" that can give you an advantage when applying to normal web dev jobs that many entry level web dev jobs candidates might not necessarily have. I also understood from Aaron that freemote helped people who wanted to start agencies also.

    After joining, things were as I expected (in the best possible way), the course contains a lot of material, its definitely suitable for beginners (like me), more advanced programmers would also benefit if they want to learn Shopify e-commerce. It takes times to go through all of the material unless you already know HTML, CSS and Javascript. In addition to what the instructor do, there are many exercises, quizzes and projects (some of the big projects you can submit for review when done if you want "optional"). 

    The instructors (Aaron and Jan) do an excellent job in explaining things thoroughly, clearly and concisely and its obvious they are listening to students feedback (as an example in one video that is considered "bonus" Jan is saying he did it because students asked and the video is NOT short, maybe 25 minutes and you could tell he prepared really well for it). They (Instructors Aaron and Jan) respond to comments underneath the videos or lessons although I never personally posted. The mentors or instructors (other than Aaron or Jan) also respond in the comments all the time. 

    The videos are usually short, this helps a lot so that you don't get distracted or lose interest. Even the few videos that are considered-relatively speaking- on the "longer" side like 25 to 30 minutes or a bit longer are not an issue at all because Aaron and Jan keep you engaged and you are at the end before you know it.

    When I need help, I send an instructor my question via email and the link to my codepen for the project and I usually get the response the very next business day in a loom video (freemote say expect response 24-72 hours but I never reached 48 or 72 hours with them and this is impressive!!!). Until now the only mentor I am working with is Berk (I didn't finish the course but getting closer and closer). Berk is very thorough and explains thing very clearly (HTML, CSS and Javascript), the first time he sent me a 20 minute loom response. Other times were also thorough (and as long as needed) and all were really quick responses. I didn't work with Kaido ever, however, I must say, all the comments left to other users in the course by Kaido are all awesome. To learn and advance quickly in programming you need a mentor, and freemote is a great opportunity for that.

    One of the weeks in course is about "Freelancing skills & Strategy" and even here there are several hours (containing many in-depth videos) about all you could imagine related to this topic, like virtual office setup, business strategies, portfolio setup, Freelancing on UpWork (including submitting your ready UpWork profile for review!!), direct freelancing, contracts, onboarding and other topics.

    I highly recommend the course if you are interested in becoming an e-commerce web developer or a web developer in general.

    This course is legit. The team believes in overdelivering to the expectations which is really rare to see.  I continue to learn a ton every single day and the advice given is very practical and straightforward. No waste of time. Expect to dedicate a lot of time. 20 hours of focussed work. No distractions. That's the best and the most affecive way to retain the information. This is real education and no get rich quick BS. Have realistic expectations from this course and... life in general! Haha. Best of luck 👍 I hope you find your freedom!

    After spending years on a career path that I thought I loved, I found myself in a job that had a gaslighting, verbally abusive boss with no prospects of moving forward or to a different position. I began a long process of teaching myself coding since I couldn’t afford one of those pricey bootcamps.
    A Freemote ad came up on Instagram after one hard day at work and a disappointing night trying to learn basic JavaScript. The way in which Aaron presented the course in the promotional video was very engaging. Looking into more of the details of the program the aspects that stood out to me were:
         ✅ Self-paced program with video walkthroughs of concepts
         ✅ Coding languages of HTML, CSS, Javascript, and Liquid
         ✅ Specialization in Shopify
         ✅ Career development with direct freelancing and UpWork options.
         ✅ Facebook group for support
         ✅ Videos and content constantly updated with lifelong access to site
         ✅ Price was affordable

    The way that Aaron and Jan teach the content is exactly what I needed. They teach the concepts, provide exercises, strategies to complete exercises, and then a walkthrough of how the exercise could be completed.
    This course has allowed me to leave my awful job and land clients through direct freelancing and through UpWork. The course has transformed my work life and has allowed me to do something that I really enjoy doing with the freedom to spend time with my family.

    Having struggled for three years from what people would think as a midlife crisis or worse, Freemote gave me hope! From marriage problems to shutting down my business to family health issues to Covid-19 Pandemic to 5 deaths in the family in a very short amount of time, this program gave me hope, focus, direction, and later accepting a job offer after over 257 applications. Not only is this course structured towards the student, but it’s growing a network of individuals that have your back and help you in times you feel like you want to quit the program. If the program were easy then it really would t be that much fun. Jan does an excellent job in explaining hard concepts real easy and simply put, best bang for your buck!

Finally I decided to bite the bullet and purchase a course, Freemote's earn while you learn model intrigued me so I signed up. I don't regret it one bit, Aaron's pace was perfect he was straight to the point and focused on what we actually needed which got me to the point where I could actually make money in 3 weeks! Thank you Aaron, Jan, the coding mentors, and everyone else who helped me along the way!

    I was in a coding bootcamp for a couple of months while working part time in retail store before joining Freemote. The problem at the time with the traditional coding bootcamp is I was having to have two mentor meetings of week and I was needing something I could work on more at my pace and Freemote gave me just that. This bootcamp has given me so much confidence and I've even already started earning money as a freelance developer! I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to get into freelancing and software development.

    If You Want Results Then You Want Freemote!

    Course Experience 
    The course made things easy to understand. You have projects and quizzes that you do to test your knowledge and you also have a safety net with the solutions videos. I felt like the course overall was very well done. The community behind it is one of the hidden gems, people are in the group willing and ready to help and ready to celebrate your wins! I would also say Jan and Aaron, the developers, are super responsive and stay committed to making sure the course is up to date which is not always the case with other bootcamp type programs. I did the course part-time and finished within about 3 months.
    Results
    If you want results then you want Freemote. I got my first client, which was a website build, ONLY 1 WEEK AFTER COMPLETING FREEMOTE! I got my second client a few days after that and so far good things are continuing to happen. Maybe you want those same results or maybe you want a position with a company or maybe you want to start an agency, students have lived all of those experiences. You could learn what every other bootcamp is teaching or you could learn to build upon a platform that is the present and future of eCommerce websites, Shopify.
    In Closing
    I'm excited to see you become a part of the community and I can't wait to hear about your success. You have to take the first step but after you do, everyone is there to support you. What's it going to be?

    Long story short: 
    Completed a full-stack developer bootcamp in 2020. Joined Freemote in April 2021. Improved my web dev knowledge and skills immensely. Working as a freelancer since May. Within 3 months after starting, I was successful at job interviews for 2 top companies in my country. Today I received a job offer to work as a junior dev for a unicorn company.
    Short story long:I was 39 years old and never coded a line before 2019. Joined a full-stack bootcamp while working full time. It cost over 5k, finished it by the end of 2020 and spent the next 5 months looking and applying for dev jobs without success. To be fair, my skills at that point were weak. I had a general understanding of how different coding languages work, but wasn't really able to create something on my own. I wouldn't have hired me either.I kept studying independently and built some front-end websites as practice, but I lacked structure and had no-one to help me when I got stuck.
    In April 2021 I saw a video about Freemote bootcamp and it looked like a good fit for an affordable price. Besides I knew a guy that was preparing to get into eCommerce and needed an online store set up at the end of summer and we agreed that I'll get my Shopify skills up and help him set up his store for the price of the admission fee. I had my first client in the bag before I even started. :)I used some of my tax returns to purchase Freemote and in hindsight it was the best investment I've ever done.
    I kept applying for local dev jobs while going through the course and 1.5 months after starting, I landed a front-end dev interview with a local robotics company. I passed it successfully and received good feedback. Unfortunately an unexpected budget freeze in their company pushed the actual hiring process to autumn.A few weeks after that, I landed another interview. It had a live coding session as one of the interviews and hand on heart, if I would’ve tried it before April, I would have failed miserably. But thanks to Freemote, I knew enough to be successful and got an offer from a unicorn company.

    About the course:
    I think the fact that Aaron was a teacher before becoming a programmer really makes a difference. Aaron's way of teaching is so much better than anything in my previous full-stack bootcamp or any Udemy course I've tried. I definitely solidified my previous understanding of HTML and CSS and learned some new information. The best part for me was JS. Aaron explains complicated concepts and the exercises he provides - it all just started to click in my head. Especially followed by the Advanced JS module where Aaron teaches how to use JS to work with data and build dynamic websites.
    Jan is a Shopify wizard and makes a totally new platform easy to grasp. The stores that you have to build as a part of the course look crisp and Jan's explanations set you up with enough to build, modify and migrate anything your future clients would ask for. Even if you don't get it right away, there is an option to ask additional questions in the comment section of each video and he always replies with tons of useful information.
    The freelancing module really helps with setting up your profile on Upwork, portfolio website, strategies to reach and close customers, advice about accounting, taxes, networking, communication etc. Everything needed to set up your one-man business.
    The FB group of the course is filled with likeminded people of different background and experience levels, all helping and encouraging one-another. Since I had some previous experience I tried to help as best I could as well, cause you learn the best by explaining something to others. 
    Wrap-up:
    Having said all that, there are no guarantees in life, every person will have a unique story. Freemote gives you the tools to be successful and points you in the right direction. It is YOU that will have to put in the time and consistent effort to turn it into a personal success.

    A 10/10 Bootcamp To Help You Become A Freelance Remote Developer

    Read more Read less of Berk's review
    Who is Freemote For?

    If you are starting from zero wanting to be a remote developer as fast as possible, this bootcamp is for you.

    If you already know some web development but have little experience getting freelance gigs and making a remote income, this bootcamp is also for you.

    Freelancing Strategies That Get Results

    Personally, I was in the second group as I joined and I was able to get my first Upwork gig after sending only 20 proposals with a new profile. Soon after, I got a full Shopify store setup gig through a design agency and have another one coming up in the pipeline.

    Moral of the story: Freemote teaches you exactly how to get freelance work. This is information you can't find in any other bootcamp. Whether you want to build up a solid Upwork profile and have clients coming to you every week, or do direct outreach and get high-paying clients across the world, Freemote has got you covered.

    Used wisely and executed consistently, the freelance strategies you learn are worth the price of the bootcamp alone.

    But what if you are starting from scratch? In that case, the technical part of Freemote will take you from learning your first HTML elements to crafting dynamic websites with JavaScript and customizing Shopify themes to your client's requirements.

    Technical Lessons: HTML/CSS/JS and Shopify

    The technical lessons in this bootcamp are top-notch. Both Aaron and Jan are absolutely amazing at describing complex topics in an easy-to-understand way.

    The HTML/CSS/JS part of the bootcamp is great at getting you from zero to proficient developer as fast as possible. There's no filler and every lesson teaches you what you need to know as efficiently as possible.

    The Shopify platform expertise and development part of the bootcamp covers Shopify development better than anywhere else I've seen on the internet. In just a couple weeks, you will go from knowing nothing about Shopify to being able to set up customized stores for your clients.

    Conclusion

    If you are starting from scratch wanting to be a remote developer in 2021 and beyond, you have to get into this bootcamp. It lays out an action plan that is the most efficient way to achieve your goals. I don't think there is any other bootcamp that can actually make you into a paid remote developer in less than 2 months.

    If you are like me and already know web development but want to start getting freelance gigs, Freemote can help you do that in just a few weeks. There is an amazing feeling of freedom and autonomy that comes from being able to get freelance gigs and help your clients. So if you have any interest in freelance/remote work, I would highly recommend you give it a shot. 

    Bottom line: 10/10 recommended!

    10/10 Course - Worth Every Penny

    Read more Read less of Nick D's review
    I struggled for years to find my passion but upon finding Aaron's YouTube channel, he convinced me to try out software development. His guidance put me on the right path after trying out many different careers and considering returning to a university or coding bootcamp. Starting my journey in September 2020, I followed the exact front end development path he laid out, going through Codecademy and buying courses on Udemy and even his JS Web Scraping course, all of which allowed me to make a solid resume of projects and start applying to jobs as early as April 2021. So of course, I was ecstatic to hear he was putting out this Freemote program and purchased it the first week it went live. I completed it in May 2021 with the hopes of applying my coding skills primarily as a freelance developer until I got a full time developer job. 
    Aaron and Jan have a unique teaching style that is more effective than the classes you would take at a 4-year university or 6-month coding bootcamp. With enough dedication and following their instructions, you can learn everything quickly at your own pace without wasting time. I've already made my money back from purchasing the course (and then some!) within the first month of freelancing. This program is definitely an investment you won't want to pass up. 

    As of June 2021 I am happy to say that I was hired as a Jr. Software Engineer making more money than ever, and have a successful side-hustle as a Shopify Developer due to this course. I've been hired 5 times on UpWork in only 21 proposals, and 2 jobs from direct outreach by following the strategies in the course. To give a little background, I had minimal/no prior programming knowledge prior to finding Aaron's YouTube channel, as I graduated with a Finance degree in 2017. I took courses including Freemote in my free time while working a full time job. Freemote is definitely the place to start building the foundation to your software development career. 

    A big thank you to Aaron and Jan!

    Freemote gives you exactly what you want out of a freelancing course and nothing less, without the fluff. 

    If you want to become a freelancer but you don't know where to start, Aaron and Jan will teach you everything you need to know in the most efficient way possible regardless of your level of previous experience, without overwhelming you. 

    It is amazing how much value is in this course: from the informational content to the ongoing practical support in the Facebook community, to access to Aaron and Jan's input. You can tell that this course is not an afterthought: Jan and Aaron genuinely care about the quality of the course, they listen to the feedback, and consequently, the value of the course just keeps increasing over time with additional content being added constantly. 

    I've seen other courses deliver their material in a tone-deaf way, without empathy or consideration for the beginner. Here, it is almost uncanny how well the instructors can intuit what will be perceived as challenging to inexperienced programmers. 

    Your confidence will be built gradually if you take this program the way it was meant to be taken. I went from being only somewhat familiar with the basic concepts of programming and web development, to knowing confidently that I can solve real-world problems with code, all in a fairly short amount of time.

    Amazing Experience and Friendly Community

    Read more Read less of Omar Ablao's review
    I have always wanted to become a developer but I never really knew where to start. Whenever I would try a Udemy course or YouTube tutorial, I would not get the feedback I desired to know if I'm on track. I would spend days going back and forth thinking, "I can do this, I just have to push forward" then after a few days later feeling defeated and giving up. 

    That's when I came across Freemote, a Developer bootcamp designed to get you the skills you need to be a freelance developer. I had followed the founder of this camp on Youtube, Aaron Jack, and saw he actually made a course for us to learn online. I knew with his teaching background, he would be able to guide us and teach us the skills we need to progress. Aaron and Jan have been supportive during this journey and I have learned a lot more than I had on my own. Their style of teaching the content, having us do practice projects, then showing us how it is done has been amazing in getting the nuggets of knowledge stuck in my head.

    The Freemote community is nothing but supportive. We share the struggles/experiences we are going through and there is always someone there to lend a hand. We even share resources that aid us all along the way such as icon generators, flexbox tips, box model tips, etc. It's nice to see there are others in the same boat as me coming from polar opposite industries to become a freelance web developer.

    A little background on myself, I am doing this course part-time (2-3 hours a day) and I try to throw in a practice coding session in-between lessons so I don't forget the things I've learned. I may be progressing at a slower pace than others but I feel I am miles away from where I first started. Thanks Freemote!

    I attended after going to a "full time", way more expensive coding bootcamp and could have saved about 20k by just going straight to Freemote. Is it challenging? Yes. But it got me the result I was looking for and if you listen to Aaron and Jan, you will too. Thank you Aaron and Jan!

    My experience with FreeMote was nothing short of exceptional. The program provided a comprehensive and well-structured curriculum that not only equipped me with essential coding skills but also fostered a collaborative and engaging learning environment. The instructors demonstrated a genuine passion for teaching, offering invaluable insights and guidance throughout the journey. What sets this bootcamp apart is its hands-on approach, with real-world projects that allowed me to apply theoretical knowledge to practical scenarios. The supportive community and the emphasis on continuous learning and problem-solving have significantly boosted my confidence in navigating the dynamic field of programming. I wholeheartedly recommend this Coding Bootcamp to anyone seeking a fast-paced, impactful, and transformative learning experience.

    The subject, course material and progression is very clear and demands of you the skills and mindset in order to succeed in working life. The support, community and weekly calls do though deserve a special mention for being outstanding. I gave 5 stars on job assistance too as they give some much encouragement and practical tips on what to do.

    Hello freemote team, my name is Javier and I am from Guatemala City. Thank you for such as awesome program for this career. I'm currently finishing Module 3 to become a Shopify Expert. I'm learning a lot of new things and I feel so happy with the course. There are some topics that may be a little be intimidating because I never saw them before in my life. However, I'm completely focused on succeed and I have the confidence that the community is always there to offer support, plus that I'm aware that we are issue solvers. I will keep going because I'm 100% sure this will thrive in the best possible way. You are the best Freemote Community.

    I am currently on my 3rd week with Freemote. And I truly believe this program is for anyone who wants to learn to code to become a web developer or freelancer.  Yes, it’s hard work and there are no short cuts here. However, Jan and Aaron are great mentors who explain every lesson thoroughly. Freemote has an exceptional team and a community that is very supportive.    Freemote has given me the confident and structure I need to become a full-time web developer or freelancer if I choose.

    Value Way Beyond Cost

    Read more Read less of Paul Leoni's review
    Investing in Freemote was by far the best decision I have made to become a great developer and one of the best career moves overall. It is hard to believe the amount of knowledge and how well the knowledge is communicated for the low price tag. I think one of the best things about Freemote is that it is more of a membership than a regular BootCamp in that once you pay into the community, you have continual access to updated course material. Aaron, Jan, and the freemote team are hyperfocused on tailoring and updating the course catalog to teach what is working now (whenever now is for you)! Buying Freemote once is like buying Freemote 2021, Freemote, 2022, Freemote 2023, Freemote 2024...etc!

    The information provided is in-depth enough to inspire confidence but not so in-depth that it is overwhelming, somewhere between a "crash-course" and a "college curriculum course".

    I would do it all over again!!!

    Completely worth it - I wish I had this years ago

    Read more Read less of G Romain's review
    I've been in the program for a few months, moving a little slower than what the course is designed for, but the course is very informative and realistic. I had prior programming knowledge, and still there are many insights and explanations that Aaron offers that made concepts that at one time eluded me make total sense. Jan and the rest of the team are very knowledgeable of their crafts and it shows. The technical support is top notch, and they really take the time and care to thoroughly address the problems you may have and work with you until you get it.

    The ONLY caveat I would put forth is that the program, though very structured (how I needed it), requires a good amount of creativity and proactivity on your part. Particularly when you get to the freelancing stage, you are going to need to take it on yourself to design and build a decent portfolio site all by yourself (though there are many sites all over the internet to help with this). This is something that I personally struggle with and take no pleasure in doing, and if you're like me, you may want to at least know up front what this program will demand of you. Everything else was dense, well guided, and very well structured to where you always feel challenged but never overwhelmed.

    And finally, the community you will be a part of is priceless, and well worth the price of admission for any serious partakers. You can tell these guys genuinely care about your success, practice what they preach, and have been exactly where you've been.

    Unlike Any other

    Calling this just a bootcamp would be misleading.  Freemote is so much more.  What sets them apart  in my opinion is 2 things.  

    1.  The have a focused path and set of technologies to propel a student from start to finish.  And by finish, they mean get you working in the field.  How?  

    2.  This is the ONLY bootcamp I've seen out there that balances coding and soft skills in a way that can take someone from novice/outsider to paid freelancer/insider.  

    Third thing worthy of mentioning is how Aaron and Jan have structured the course.  They both truly have a gift when it comes to teaching technical concepts.  And that, alone, justifies the cost.  Anyone who's tried to learn a programing language knows how slow and painful it can be.  What they have taught me would have taken me years to learn any other way.

    Overall the course has been a great experience so far. As a complete beginner it is challenging to learn some of the coding content but the way they teach has made it much easier then I expected. Week 1 so far has been the longest to complete. Week 2 was much easier and quicker to complete. I'm starting week 3 today and I'm looking forward to completing it so I can get closer to getting my own clients. The course definitely builds your confidence up so that you can feel capable of considering yourself to be a professional when trying to get clients. There's a lot to learn and it can feel overwhelming sometimes but the key for me has been to focus on actions > outcomes, as Aaron says in the course.

    I'm two weeks into the 7 week program.  Truth be told it's a little MORE intense than I thought it would be.  I came in having had some experience so the first week on HTML and CSS was more review than anything else, but they managed to keep it informative and challenging.  I'm not sure how well a complete beginner would fare.

    I really appreciate the practical focus towards developing a portfolio to show employers your expertise.  This is not your typical online school.  Granted I'm only about 1/4 the way through, but I think I'm in the right place and the future looks bright to me.

    I have completed Week 1 with HTML and CSS and Week 2 with setting up the Shopify Store.
    The content of the bootcamp is carefully constructed with a lot of meaning and value.
    Really engaging content you learn by doing and you can complete a lot of projects and have them in your arsenal.
    Don't be frustrated if you don't complete the chapters in time, just keep moving on.

    I am currently enrolled in this boot camp (Week 3) and really like it, don't get me wrong, its not for everyone. I am someone who has always wanted to create my own business and have never really cared much about getting a silicon valley FANG job so the things that Freemote offers are extremely valuable to me, these are:

    - Resources such as app, recommended themes, testing pages and stuff the staff actually uses in real life for real projects
    - Pricing, marketing and selling tactics for you to actually use in your daily workflow
    - Programming tools such as version control(Git) and other resources that youll need
    - Precedence in the form of past experiences you can use to navigate entrepreneurship
    - Enough coding to get you started and some more

    You can probably find all of this online but it would most likely be inefficient and will take you more time, this program is perfect if like me, your biggest hurdle is getting started due to a case of analysis paralysis. I also recognize that the program wont make me a full web developer (they dont claim to) and I will probably need to learn more languages such as Node and React in my own but if I can support myself while doing some Shopify development and improve in my understanding of good store development and customer behavior, once I have a full web-dev knowledge I will be a better developer.

    The teaching approach of any instructor goes a long way in grooming the success of his students down the line. The teachers and the entire team at Freemote perfectly exemplifies this. One crucial aspect of the Freemote coding bootcamp I love is how much the instructors and code mentors are involved in the success of the students. They are very swift with responses to coding problems faced by students and this for me is exactly what I wanted when I purchased the course. I will gladly give the Freemote team a 5 star rating.

    So my experience with Freemote has been amazing for a multiplicity of reasons and I'll start off with how I came into the course.

    My first interaction with Freemote came from the advertisements I've been noticing on Youtube, I was searching in videos for coding and trying to find the resources to help me learn how to understand different coding languages (for a free course I was trying out) and that's primarily when I remember coming across advertisements from Freemote and Aaron Jack. A long story short, after several advertisements later I clicked on the link and listened to one of his Youtube videos and that is where my exact feelings about coding were explained in one video. My interest at that time skyrocketed because I felt that this course could possibly add some direction in my learning journey for coding. 

    The next thing that happened in my timeline is that I booked a free call with one of Freemote's staff and had a live video call where I was able to ask any questions I had about the course, expectations, people in my similar position, etc. After that call I decided to sign up for the course because I literally had nothing to lose with their cash-back guarantee so I thought "Why not?". From that moment forth when I decided to join the Freemote group I knew that this was a decision I did not regret making because this course has all the necessary tools to help me succeed in my opinion. I say this because here I've been pushed to go on my own to try and do the coding work by myself and whether I get the code correct or not I feel I was able to get all the resources I needed beforehand for that particular assignment opposed to feeling like the material needed hasn't been taught sufficiently enough. The main idea I'm getting at is that this course helps me to feel proud of myself for working out a problem on my own and then looking at the proper solution to help reinforce/encourage me to continue to get better.

    The best of all is that this course is super active and up-to-date with its lessons. Other resources I looked into before Freemote typically had outdated material and really didn't inspire me to reach out for help when I needed it. Here at Freemote I receive help from online mentors who send recorded videos critiquing my code and also offer advice on ways I can make my code better as well as answering any questions that I have about my code. This was absolutely mind-blowing to me because after just one of these videos I felt my learning skyrocketed and it only helped me realize how much I enjoyed doing this course day after day.

    I've only been enrolled for a couple weeks now while still working a full-time job that demands 40+ hours a week but this course has been able to teach me so much of what I can be confident in doing in such a smaller time frame than what I thought possible and it continues to inspire me more each lesson. I know this course is a super valuable asset to me and I would definitely recommend this to anyone out there who wishes to get into coding but doesn't know where to start. This is a great place for you to begin or continue your coding journey!
