It was excellent! I found everything I was looking for here to train in Web development, enter a very active network full of competent and kind people. The resources provided were top-notch and the support from the community was invaluable. I highly recommend this platform to anyone looking to learn or improve their skills in Web development. The opportunities for growth and connection with others in the field are endless. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. -

Amazing Experience at Le Wagon Rio de Janeiro
Read more Read less of Guilherme Barreto's review
I loved being a part of Le Wagon Batch #1011 in Rio de Janeiro! I'm still young, but I was inspired to learn to code to open my mind. I had great recommendations from friends and now I have no doubts that it was the right choice! The way the staff at Le Wagon treats their students is great, not only teaching them but helping everyone achieve their goals in just 9 weeks. It's very intense, but there is plenty of time to do exercises and relax before the next one. Amazing experience! -

Great learning experience. Would absolutely recommend

I had the chance to come into this bootcamp after having already completed an associate's in Computer Science, but I really needed the practical experience of building projects that could be used, not just solving programming exercises. Le Wagon definitely provided that and the opportunity to code/learn with others which is invaluable. The TAs are all Le Wagon graduates (which helps Le Wagon's post-graduation employment % numbers), but if you are having trouble getting hired as a developer, it is a great way to continue building upon your skills and for students, these TAs are knowledgeable enough to make a BIG difference in your learning journey. And many of them are already working as developers, so they can share their real-world experience with us.
Many students come in with little to no programming knowledge and at the end of our bootcamp, everyone was able to submit an impressive functioning web app.
I would absolutely do this again (even thinking about the data science & machine learning modules) and recommend Le Wagon to anyone who is on the fence about bootcamps.
As an aside, I chose the part-time remote option because I work full-time. I honestly think I got more out of the part-time schedule because it allowed me time to digest and understand the lectures and exercises while doing extra outside work to learn more. I don't think I would have had the bandwidth to do this if I did the full-time bootcamp. -

I graduated last week and I'm writing this review because i found Le Wagon bootcamp really useful and I can’t believe the time passed so quick that I miss the bootcamp time with Le Wagon and all the wonderful time with my classmates. Staff, Teachers and TAs are very helpful and classmates are all incredibly nice.Before joining the bootcamp I was a no-code product manager managing a cloud broadcast platform and team at max 10 pax in Hong Kong and right now I feel confident to start my new career path in UK. -

One of the best decisions I've ever made

After going through a difficult period professionally during the pandemic, I decided to learn how to code to take my career to the next level. I started learning online and even though I loved programming, I felt lost in a sea of languages, tools, and frameworks. It was also very frustrating whenever I got stuck on some doubt or question. Enter Le Wagon, one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The full-stack web development Bootcamp gave me the structure I was looking for. At Le Wagon, you are taken on a two-and-a-half-month adventure through coding that culminates at demo day, where you get to proudly present your final project, a full-fledged web app created by little old you and a small team of your fellow students. The teachers (and there are always a bunch of them available) are always there for your questions, bugs, and insecurities. Every day you are paired with a fellow student and together you tackle the day’s challenges, so you are always supported one way or another, and you quickly learn to program as part of a team. The staff always makes you feel at home at the campus which is tremendously helpful in such an intense and challenging course. Overall, the whole experience was incredible and while I can’t wait for what the future holds now I’ve completed the Bootcamp, I also miss it already :) -

Mindblowing results after bootcamp
Read more Read less of Mark Sarifidis's review
Let's be real. Are bootcamps really worth the money putting a lot of content in 3 months or so?
I was suuuper sceptical and can after graduating from Le Wagon I can say YES 100%!!!
I was totally new to the tech area and did not know what machine learning was - couldn't even write 3 lines of code in Python. And what happened that last 2 weeks? I created a whole webapp using a deep learning algorithm from scratch working in a 4 people team!
If somebody tells you that a 3 month Le Wagon bootcamp is more worth than a bachelor and master in computer science - trust him! -

Extremely rewarding and fun
Le Wagon was a greaet place for me to start my coding journey. They cover so much, the teachers are all fantastic and you leave the bootcamp with so many resources to help you on your path to become a developer. A stand out for me was Le Wagon's ability to cater for absolute beginners like me to students who had been in the software industry for 10+ years. Highly recommend! -

I recently finished Le Wagon's data science bootcamp and it was an incredible experience. From the start, I was impressed by the high caliber of the teaching staff. They were all highly knowledgeable and passionate about data science, and they were always available to answer questions and offer guidance.
The course material itself was excellent. It covered a wide range of topics, including machine learning, data visualization, and natural language processing, and I felt like I learned a ton. The program also had a strong emphasis on hands-on projects, which was great because it allowed me to apply my new skills in a practical setting.
In addition to the course material, I also really appreciated the support of the TA's. They were extremely helpful guidance throughout the challenges.
Overall, I would highly recommend Le Wagon's data science Bootcamp to anyone looking to break into the field. It's an intensive program, but it's worth the investment in terms of the knowledge and skills you'll gain. -

After finishing my Digital Marketing Masters, I decided that I wanted to learn more about the thing that I love the most, coding ! So, I started to look for many coding bootcamps online until I found Le Wagon's Web Development course. I immediately decided to join the bootcamp and it was the best decision I could have made.
The whole experience was amazing from day one ! I felt constantly supported by the TA's and the batch manager, helping me to overcome any obstacle.
I enjoyed every second of the bootcamp and that's why I recommend it to everyone who wants to change careers ! -

After 10 years working as a Mechanical Engineer in several roles, I felt the need to pursue a new, more exciting and defying career. For that, I decided to choose Le Wagon's Web Development because it had an appealing curricula and I felt I could have a great boost. Also, I needed to do the bootcamp presential but also be close to home and for that reason I chose Porto Campus.
It was amazing to have the opportunity to be part of a fantastic team. All of the TA’s and the batch manager provided the help it was needed to go through our journey and surely the buddy system has also helped a lot in this journey. Proud to be part of the #1043 close family! -

Le Wagon Porto bootcamp

I studied Psychology and been working in Football for the past 6 years.
Had a few different jobs until I realized I needed to learn a reliable skill for a more financially stable future.
Looked for many Coding Bootcamps online until I found Le Wagon's Web Development Bootcamp happening in Porto.
The fact that it was on-site as important for me, in the sense that I never looked at Coding before and I'm not a fan of Online classes.
The experience was AMAZING! The teachers and the staff team are very competent and always available to help, adjust their communication, regardless of your background.
You can really notice the thought put into the Course content in order to make you think and solve problems, and sooner than you think, you'll be able to write and understand some coding.
Also, If you're thinking about doing this (intense) Bootcamp, make sure you have 100% of your time dedicated to it. I kept a part-time job and struggle a bit at times. -

Best Bootcamp Experience
Read more Read less of Jamie Chau's review
Coming from a Business Administration background, I was looking for a career change into Tech. While looking for a web development bootcamp there were so many options to choose from. With previous bootcamp experiences, other bootcamps were online and lacked student/teacher engagement.
After careful consideration of all the choices, I chose Le Wagon because they are different from the other bootcamps, Le Wagon was on campus.
Learning to Code at Le Wagon was a life-changing experience, This was the best learning experience I've had. I actually enjoyed learning with the Professors and TAs and loved engaging with different students every day. This showed me how to collaborate with other developers and build friendships and relationships with people sharing the same passion.
At first, I wasn't sure how I was going to adapt to a new career, but Le Wagon made it easy and showed me how much I loved coding and building projects.
I was fortunate enough to complete the course, have an AWESOME demo of our projects, make new friends, and GET A JOB! 2 weeks post bootcamp.
I'm very thankful for what Le Wagon has taught me and how much they helped me with their career services also. -

I’ve been working as digital designer for 5 years and always had interest in the programming aspects of web applications. I started le wagon lisbon’s part time bootcamp with high expectations that were more than fulfilled. Those were intense 24 weeks in the web dev (ruby on rails) bootcamp. I never felt so happy for a decision, I experienced a vibrating campus and nice staff. Every hour of commitment was worth it: fantastic atmosphere, engaging culture, high quality of lectures and materials, amazing TA’s and community. Not to mention awesome, creative classmates. I’m really proud for this learning journey, and specially surprised with my final delivery. It was an astonishing progress, something I could only dream about up until a few months ago. -

"A little time (2 months) has passed since the end of my training at the Le Wagon, and what can I say ... I miss it! I spent two great months in a welcoming and human environment, with people who brought me a lot. The teachers were there to give us all the necessary material to understand the web development field. The work methodology in pair programming or team project mode allowed us to develop our understanding at another level. We were helping each other, learning together. Don't get me wrong, it's a hard adventure: two months of hard work are waiting for you but for me, learning to code at Le Wagon bootcamp is the best decision I ever made in my life.
I met great people, learned with good vibes, experienced the stress of turning in a group project with a deadline, felt the satisfaction of creating something with my hands.
Thank you Le Wagon." -

Je pensais pas possible d'apprendre tout ce que j'ai pu apprendre en l'espace de seulement 9 semaines. Du contenu pédagogique à la qualité des instructeurs je n'ai que du positif à dire de mon expérience au Wagon Bordeaux. Si je devais donner un facteur vraiment différenciant c'est l'accès à vie à la plateforme utilisée et continuellement mise à jour par l'équipe pédagogique du Wagon. Je recommande fortement! -

Best coding bootcamp in Tokyo

I completed the full-time Web Development Bootcamp at Le Wagon in Tokyo this summer, graduating at the beginning of September. It's been one of the best learning experiences I have ever had, and all the hard work paid off as I started my first job as a web developer only a month after graduating!
The bootcamp has a well-planned course structure and great online resources, but what really makes the bootcamp great is the fantastic team behind Le Wagon Tokyo. They went above and beyond to make sure everyone got the help they needed, both during the bootcamp and after, helping us master not only coding but the job hunt too! The teachers are very skilled and knowledgeable, and made the lessons super fun and engaging.
The bootcamp is intensive and it's a lot of hard work. The work you put in will absolutely determine what you get out of the bootcamp. That being said, the bootcamp gives you all the tools, knowledge and resources you need to succeed!
I highly recommend the Web Development Bootcamp at Le Wagon in Tokyo to anyone who wants to start a new career in coding! Le Wagon has the best coding Bootcamp in Tokyo, and it’s a great choice if you are ready to work hard and have a lot of fun learning a new skill! -

Life changing experience

In the back of my mind for years I have been working in tech I've always wanted to get a deeper understanding of how web applications are made and the underlying principles used to make these. I worked in commercials for around 6 years and wanted to change my career very desperately.
I found myself with the opportunity to which I could choose a bootcamp and after an unsuccessful attempt another school which cancelled the course, I sort out Le Wagon in Barcelona where I live with zero expectations.
Soon after beginning the course I slowly realised I was surrounded by the professional and patient teachers & staff, I was absorbing and value information at a scale I haven't even encountered at university. Le Wagon's course structure (while seems intimidating in the beginning) is built to allow students to walk away with a vast understanding of the concepts used in building sophisticated web applications.
At the end of the 10 week bootcamp I built two very advanced applications (still live and accessible), and am undertaking a career to teach the same curriculum taught to me, to further invoke the value I received during my time there to future students with a burning interest in full stack web development!
I couldn't recommend Le Wagon as a school and their cohort if you're willing and have the drive to really change not just your career but your life in such a positive way.
Happy for anyone to reach out to me if they need any more insight into my experience :) -

I did the 9 week full-time web development bootcamp and it was truly life changing! All the teachers are experts in their respective fields as well as very patient with any questions you might have.
It was challenging at times but very much worth it! I feel confident that I am able to develop any web application that I want to create. Sure, I'm still learning but I think the most valuable thing I learned during the 9 weeks is how to think like a developer. This empowers me to find a solution to any problem I might have. Thank you! -

Best Tokyo Web Bootcamp!

Joining Le Wagon Tokyo was one of the best decisions in my life. I learnt so much in the ten weeks of learning, due to the fantastic teaching methods of the staff and team.
One reason I chose Le Wagon over other coding bootcamps in Tokyo was due to its community and reputation both domestically and internationally. It provides alumni with a massive support network that can be utilized for once they finish the bootcamp.
Having no coding knowledge prior to starting Le Wagon to landing a job as a developer after one month after finishing. None of this would have been possible without Le Wagon! I would recommend taking the leap to start your coding journey with Le Wagon Tokyo!!! -

Taking the web-dev bootcamp was a great decision and it really changed my way of thinking and perceiving my abilities. The format of the bootcamp is designed in a way to get you used to not knowing while learning, hence, making you curious when encountering challenges you yet don't understand instead of panicking and giving up. I'd definitely recommend Le Wagon to anyone wanting to learn strong coding skills in a lovely environment! -

I would say that course exceeded my expectations regarding the high quality of lectures and materials. I can say that I improved a lot and I also got a very good structure that I can now build on much easier. The Barcelona team was very helpful and made our education smooth. Bootcamp has a fantastic atmosphere and engaging culture. I met a lot of friends that share the same passion as me. A great part of the course is that we create a product at the end. I'm really happy with the quality of that and I'm currently working on the product further. Would definitely recommend this course to data enthusiasts. -

The Ride of a Lifetime

As with many people of my age and background, I was looking for a career change. I'd been working with audio and language instruction for many years and, comfortable in my situation, realized not much else would ever change and my life would pretty much stall thereafter. After talking to friends and family, particularly people who had transitioned into programming, I decided to take that leap and head into said area myself.
There was a plethora of courses to choose from, from bootcamps to part-time programs I could've done at home over some time. Myriad companies are competing in this field now, tailoring their courses to fit students' needs. Some are expensive, others involve more manageable pricing. Some are online, others hybrid. But the one that most definitely stood out was Le Wagon São Paulo. Not only because it was nearby and situated in one of São Paulo's more interesting neighborhoods, but because it involved:- a 10-week, 360-hour bootcamp, made to extract the best out of you, through a
- well-thought-out, solid curriculum
- taught with grit and passion by
- a body of teachers and assistants with full dominion over the material they use daily in their professional and personal affairs.
Never mind that facilities are spotless and top-notch, with comfortable seating, open areas (including the rooftop where we did yoga a few times), powerful air-conditioning and heating, lockers, and two kitchen areas.
And besides the aforementioned talented staff, there's a full support network accessible via Slack made up of alumni from all across the globe who are always willing to help, be it with programming matters, be it with job opportunities, or placement. A student who commits him/herself fully to the course and continues with that commitment afterward will most certainly find their place in the market, be it as an entrepreneur or as an employee at a startup, software house, or maybe even a transnational company. The doors that are bound to open to the dedicated individual are numerous and quite real.
Finally, I mention that I leave my name in this review so that you, its reader, can hold me accountable for my words and understand that what I write here is the result of an ongoing personal journey and process. The 360 hours (plus the prep work) involved are grueling. Nothing about this course was easy. But no one said it would be (actually, we were explicitly told otherwise), and the support offered here was instrumental in being able to come out the other end whole and much better than when I came in. Let’s be clear: Le Wagon is not the only full-stack web development course out there, but I cannot imagine having done any other. Without hesitation, I give it a 5/5. -

I am a YouTuber based in South Korea and Japan, and I came to London to do a master’s degree in Media and Communication to expand my expertise not only in the Media industry and also in intersectional feminism/racism. While I was doing my master's, I conducted a quantitative research (youtube comments analysis), using methods such as data cleaning and word cloud. I found coding/data analysis super intriguing and that’s when I found Le wagon data science boot camp!As I’m not a native speaker, it was already challenging to learn Data science in English but TAs and batch managers were always willing to help and it really encouraged me tremendously. If the course and teachers were overwhelming, I might have dropped out in a week (not joking)😂 Love how supportive they were in every way💕Plus, even though I’m quite an outgoing person, it’s been such a difficult thing to broaden my network in another country! 😭But thanks to Le Wagon buddy system, it was great to know other classmates!! Everyone has a different backgrounds and as I’m interested in diversity and intersectionality, it was just so amazing to connect with them. When I struggled with challenges, amazing buddies helped me and once we solved it, we felt the rewarding moment together! How fantastic!!I truly recommend Le Wagon Data Science bootcamp to those who doubt if they can make it, or are still quite afraid as they don’t have any background in this field. Even a person like me, who has ZERO background in tech or data, made it! 💪 I can proudly say it was one of the most worthwhile decisions I’ve ever made. -

Have you had or are you having your first contact with the world of programming? If so, I recommend you contact Le Wagon to improve and learn the skills you need to enter the job market.
Full-time dedication is needed, completing the pre-course is more than recommended to successfully complete the programme and if you can dedicate some extra time before starting to have a first contact with basic structures and exercises, it would be amazing. Working with different classmates and different teachers makes learning very dynamic. A lot of hours are spent on the backend, which is usually a bit more difficult to understand on your own and is very much appreciated. Topics are covered and we were provided with content that will be useful after the bootcamp.

I started le wagon web development bootcamp with zero knowledge about programming. At first I was apprehensive, but as soon as the first day of the bootcamp started this feeling started to slowly go away. All the teachers, teacher assistants and the whole staff in general were very kind and friendly, it never felt so great to wake up early to study haha. The bootcamp is very intensive and their method of teaching is unique. I made friends that I'm taking for the rest of my life and had great experiences that I will never forget.
After the 9 weeks of bootcamp, we had a career guidance week that helped a lot to give me a place from where to start looking for jobs and tips about what recruiters are seeking for. One month later, I got my first "yes" and now I'm working as a Back-end Developer! I never could imagine that in such short time my life could change, but it did! I am very thankful for all of the staff and friends that I made during the course that took part in this. #BATCH898 -

LeWagon has given me more than I had hoped for not only did I learn how to code, I learned how to take in information at a faster and more efficient rate. The daily challenges were exactly what was needed to excel and further understand the concepts of programming while using the knowledge acquired from previous lectures. The environment is really friendly and relaxed which was a valuable key as it helped ease everyone’s experience in learning such an intimidating skill. The LeWagon experience goes beyond the bootcamp as once you’re done, you will join the community as an alumni and always have access to the facilities and lectures. I am now ready to start my new chapter in my career as now I have confidence in back-end and front-end languages and an extra bonus skill which is pitching a project along with collaborating with a team! -

It all started when I was 15 years old. A super criative teenager, in love with creation and innovation, good abilities on computer and techonology itself. I started a course about website creation, using ASP.net but at the time I was so young to understand how to make money with it and life took another path. The love to work with projects and creative ideas remained for years and walked side by side while I was a salesman. I worked for 12 years in the commercial department and learned a lot on how to deal with people and everyday problems, closing good deals and understanding more about customer relationship. In the middle of the pandemic I really looked into my carreer and despite of being a good salesman, I really didn't see a future for what I was doing and thought about my great passion of working with projects and solving real problems with innovation. So I started talking to my friends and my cousin told my about Le Wagon and the experience that he had, the job opportunities he was receiving and it motivated me to look into it. I confess being nervous at the very beginning since I was putting aside 12 years of carreer to start over again. But it was worth it every moment. Le Wagon has a method of learning that puts you to code all day long and the interaction with other students makes all the difference. I could share my difficulties to learn and my solutions to help others. As time goes by I started to realize how much things were making sense in the bootcamp. So after learning about the stacks, database and some tools to work for a full application, I had the chance to work with a group for 2 complete projects and that was a real challenge. We had to plan, think about the design, the patterns and how we aspect the platform to behave. It was amazing and we definitely had support for this, which made all the difference. All these interactions and the materials to learn made the bootcamp at Le Wagon so special and unique. Not mentioning the network with devs and friends that keeps us in touch to this day. Now I'm a Full-Stack Web Developer and really enjoying this new life with challenging projects and the chance to put my ideas to help solving real life problems. -

LeWagon Rio is awesome!
It was such a challenging but rewarding time. I learned a lot. It also felt like becoming part of a little family here in Rio.
I think anyone who is seriously thinking of breaking into tech this is a great opportunity. If you're serious about being a programmer, in my opinion it would help a lot though to have some prior knowledge. -

Best experience of my life

I enrolled in the full-time Web Development bootcamp in January 2022 at Le Wagon’s Sao Paulo school. At first I was a bit insecure because I have spent the last 15 years working as a movie editor and creative director and for years thought about a career transition. But since the very first moment I felt welcome and secure to share my insecurities and doubts.Even though the course is very intense (and sometimes overwhelming), teachers, assistants and colleagues were always there to pick me up and help me. The mantra “Trust the methodology” is absolutely true: everyday you’re constantly using what you have previously learned. That way, you end up having a solid base to develop your knowledge, even if you don’t have any programming previous knowledge. The methodology of working in pairs or groups really gives you a sense of companionship and prepares you to real live jobs, building a sense of collaboration and constant communication.
After you finish the bootcamp you have lifetime access to the platform with all the lessons and a session to be in touch with students from Le Wagon all around the world. There, you can ask for help, share knowledge and there are tons of ex-students sharing job opportunities. I thought that I was only going to learn how to code but the sense of community that Le Wagon have really makes me feel like I belong, even now, 6 months after finishing the bootcamp. I even go there from time to time to spend the day working and clearing doubts with the teachers and friends I made there. It was, without doubt, the best experience I have ever had. -

Excellent experience overall!

I did Le Wagon in Paris this spring 2022. It was a very intense, yet rewarding experience. Le Wagon gives you the opportunity to strongly grasp web development (back & front) and product management concepts. Mornings are for the lectures with skilled (and patient) teachers, and afternoons filled with exercises on the topic. Whether it be for exercises or end projects, the bootcamp forces you to meet and collectively work with your pairs. That's a great introduction to team work in companies. So overall, go for it if you want to learn web dev concepts (if you're into product, or want to start your business). If you want to switch to a dev career, this gives you a strong basis on which to build upon.
