I am a current student in the full-stack program and want to respond to the previous person’s post and share my experiences.
1. So what if the instructors are from GA? What matters is that they are professional, know the material, and teach it well. I understand it that Galvanize poached GA’s 2 top instructors and having been in many a classroom, I can tell you that they are very good.
2. The classroom is in no way competitive and there is no pack mentality other than the mentality that you have to bust your butt to be a developer. We constantly work together with our fellow classmates and actually like each enough as people to spend time outside the classroom together. We don’t pair program and anyone who pines for it at our current competence level only wants to mask his/her programing shortcomings behind his/her pair partner. No way does the course discourage anyone from not working with your classmates on labs and classwork, but it is ultimately up the individual to work through each assignment to best best learn it for his/herself.
3. “If it was easy, then everyone would do it”
You are supposed to spend hours on HW, get stuck, look up documents, ask the instructors, and use your classmates as resources. However, learning web development is achievable and the instructors make themselves very available to help us. The lead instructor even responded to a student’s homework question on Slack at 11:30pm last night. They hold us to a very high standard, do not sugar coat how difficult the material is, and how much we would have to work sacrifice to learn it well. Some individuals would interpret this sort of tough love as a personal attack where it is meant to teach us self-reliance. To say that any of the instructors are the gatekeepers is a patiently absurd statement and whoever feels like that is just passing the buck when it comes to his/her education. I guarantee you that whoever feels like that is not still in the classroom with me at 10pm in an honest effort to finish the HW.
4. End of rant. Galvanize is an excellent program, but you get what you put into it.
