I recently completed the SheCodes Basics Workshop, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. The course provided detailed lessons in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, offering a comprehensive understanding of these fundamental languages. The immersive quality of the lessons, coupled with practical exercises, ensured that I not only grasped the concepts but also gained hands-on experience. Moreover, the supportive community added immense value, making learning enjoyable and engaging. Thanks to SheCodes, I feel well-prepared to pursue my passion for coding and tackle more advanced projects. If you're looking for detailed instruction and a supportive community, SheCodes is the perfect choice! -

Embarking on this journey with Matt Delac and the SheCodes team has been nothing short of exceptional. Navigating the workings of coding is a challenge, but the meticulously structured course allowed me to revisit lessons until mastery was achieved. There is great excitement as I delve into the phenomenal coding skill, making this learning experience truly transformative. Platforms like this are uncommon, and I am glad SheCodes has made a platform that allows women to manoeuvre themselves into Tech as seamlessly as possible. -

Overwhelming amazing first coding learning experience!

I never thought coming from an entirely non-tech background that I would be able to use HTML, CSS and JavaScript to make a whole landing page from scratch in the space of just 3 weeks - I've truly shocked myself and that's all thanks to Matt and the SheCodes team! The content is SO clear to understand and I got help so quickly in the Slack channels when I got stuck, I cannot wait to continue learning with the SheCodes Max course! -

Amazing Course for Beginners!

I have always been intrigued by coding and I've been trying to start my journey over the past few months, but none of the programs that I saw were a right fit until I came across the SheCodes Foundation. They understand that as women, especially from third world countries, we do not get many opportunities and I'm excited to continue my journey with SheCodes! I successfully completed the SheCodes Basics course and I'm geared up to get more advanced with their other courses!! -

EXCELLENT Course--Even for the one who thinks "I can't do it"!!

“SheCodes Basics was an EXCELLENT experience. I am pumped to continue the journey and move on to the max version. I have always been scared of "STEM" programs because I've never been very "quick" when it comes to logic. But Matt made this course easy to understand. He really understands what the student needs in order to get it -- or at least feel like they can get it. He pushes students to do the heavy-lifting so that we can genuinely learn the material. He assures students throughout the course that, even if they don't get it now -- they will get it with practice. One thousand times thank you to Matt and the SheCodes team!” -

Excellent Intro to Coding

I am 31 and looking to change careers. I've always been fascinated with how computers work, how they do all the amazing things they do. SheCodes was advertised on instagram whilst I was looking at jobs like Online Marketing and I thought "What a good skill to have." It applies to so many careers and I had some time off of work to dedicate to learning a new skill. The SheCodes Basics course has been amazing. The bite-sized lessons and challenges to test what you've just learnt is an incredible teaching technique. I've enjoyed it so much and have recommended it to friends. I'm considering a Graphic Design career and I think having done this initial course will help me in that pursuit. Thank you Matt and the SheCodes team. -

I would like to share my impressions about the programming courses I took on your website. I was pleasantly surprised by the depth and breadth of the material that was presented. These courses gave me the opportunity to delve into various areas of programming, starting from basic concepts to more advanced topics. The practical assignments, in particular, were very helpful as they allowed me to directly apply the knowledge I acquired. The community was always ready to help, which gave me additional confidence in the learning process. I am confident that these courses significantly improved my programming skills and will help me in my future career in this field. -

SheCodes makes learning a pleasure !
“I have totally enjoyed the SheCodes basic workshop and I am looking forward to the next workshop. I would highly recommend SheCodes to anyone who is a beginner. I knew nothing about coding at all and I am amazed at much I have learnt and found enjoyable and I am looking forward to the next level!!” -

I Learnt Alot
The lessons were very detailed and easy to follow, I enjoyed every part of it. I've learnt a lot and I'm looking forward to learning more. The video lessons are of good quality and I like the fact that I can pause, rewind and start over when I didn't understand a concept. Thank you Matt and the SheCodes team -

Amazing course - Unique opportunity

Having the opportunity to participate in SheCodes Basics opened doors for me in the world of coding, promoting an opportunity that I would hardly have had in my country. It's a carefully thought-out course that we can do in our own pace, with complete explanations and illustrations. The course really is everything you need to know to enter this new world. Thank you SheCodes for teaching me about a skill that I discovered I have a lot of potential and the chance of actually pursuing a career in coding. This course really makes a difference to gender equity in some countries! -

I am delighted with the SheCodes workshop that I just completed! I had very basic knowledge of coding prior to signing up and happy to say that I received a refresher and then some! I learned a few new tips and tricks and learned how to refine my code beyond creating a basic skeleton. Also it's great to actually know how to read code and understand what makes a website tick! Looking forward to starting my next workshop! -

When i joined SheCodes basic, I had never taken a coding class before and was really worried if i would manage. However, Matt and the SheCodes team have made the experience really vivifying. The slack channel was always available whenever i needed help and I'm now looking forward to joining the next SheCodes program. I highly recommend anyone with interest in becoming a developer to join SheCodes.”

Informative, and easy to understand!
I started this course as I was working on a new website build and was struggling to understand the coded side of things, this course has given me a wealth of knowledge! I thought it was all explained very well and having a challenge after each lesson really helped to cement what I'd learnt! Would highly recommend! -

I initially thought it was going to be daunting to learn how to code but it ended up being enjoyable. I won't lie it would get challenging but through doing my own research and the help of the Slack community, I would quickly overcome the challenge. The study material is spaced in such a way that you can take in a good amount of information in one video.The challenges were how I got to practice what I have learned and more. I thoroughly enjoyed working on the different elements in my own time, saves me from anxiety. Thank you Matt and the SheCodes team! 1000/10! -

SheCodes 100% definitely is the best coding workshop out there! Before starting SheCodes basics I thought I would feel discouraged or disinterested after the first week but it was completely the opposite. Throughout the course I was engaged and motivated to challenge myself and complete the tasks. The challenges and videos made coding feel so much more easier and it helped me stay on track. One thing I loved about the workshop is that I could go back to any lesson which I didn't fully understand and work on the challenges at any time of the day which is extremely useful for people who are busy. I've learnt so much from Matt and can't wait to begin SheCodes Max! 😇 -

SheCodes Basic Web Development Course

The SheCodes Basic workshop is a fantastic way to get started in the world of Web Development. Coming from an education background myself, I really enjoyed Matt's teaching style and the way the workshop was broken down into fun and interactive chunks. This made it simple to follow and easier to understand the more challenging concepts. The workshop is very well organised and help is always at hand via the Slack communities. I really enjoyed creating my own website via the final project and can't wait to get started on the SheCodes Plus Workshop! Thank you Matt & team! -
Clare
Poor! Services outlined in the course not delivered.
Read more Read less of Clare's review
A deeply disappointing experience. After having a positive experience with their introductory SheCodes basic course. I took the plunge into the Shecodes Max course, as a step towards changing career and have been thinking about a career, given the course description, and outlines that they provide support and teaching enabling people to develop and learn these skills it sounded like a great option to assist with this transition.The facts:- The course outlines 24/7 chat support - This is false, the company uses a Slack channel with 2 technicians who are responsible for supposedly answering 100's of students' questions and they fail to deliver, understandably.
- Shecodes max states Priority support - This is false. The responses to questions come hours and days later - this is really frustrating when you are trying to learn and complete the projects and homework in a timely manner, especially with deadlines to complete work.
- Homework reviews/Project reviews - False. You post a link to your solution and it is either accepted or declined for you to review it. No feedback is given to help you improve your coding or for you to understand where you are on your journey. The whole course feels very automated, impersonal and unsupportive.
Around 5 hours per week of work - False. I spent around 5-10 hours per day sometimes 7 days a week on 9 weeks of struggling through with zero support.
The video format is very confusing with Tutor Matt in the videos appearing as if he himself is learning on the fly and he often backtracks in the videos which leaves you completely confused.- Even though it says videos are updated- False. The videos are mostly dated to 2015, they add some updates to text but not to the actual videos, so I found the code to be outdated to what is currently being taught and confusing as a learner.
I really wanted to understand what to do in this course and feel a sense of achievement and confidence knowing I had learnt something new and that I was working towards something. Instead, I was left alone to struggle and given very invalidating and patronising responses from the “Customer Success Team🤩💩” who often use happy happy smiling emojis and hearts whenever they conversate with you, and it feels like you are speaking with a possessed A.I, not a human being. E.g“ Hey my arm just fell off and I am really struggling “The customer success team enters “ Hey 😍❤️😍💝, why don't you just skip around the playground while eating ice cream, have a great week!!!!” 🤮🤮🤢😤😱😱
In the end, I asked for a refund as I was not getting the help or support and I knew I could not struggle through an 8-month course alone in this way when they have failed to deliver the service requirements as outlined in the programme highlights. and I was hit with SURPRISE” Didn't you read our tiny small print on the website that says “policy” Well we don't do refunds! (I will add that the company failed to draw your attention to this policy before taking your payment) They did not offer anything resolutory and we were going back and forth. I then posted “I am waiting for my refund” in the public chat and then they removed me from the Slack channel (which is supposed to be a part of the course features)
The back and forth of emails continued with the team holding steadfast to not acknowledging any of my concerns or attempting to understand in any shape or form my perspective.
I will be going through my bank to get my full course fees returned to me as the company has not delivered on its course-outlined services.
The company have refunded me a partial payment and had the audacity to say they will keep a service fee and fees for a course I have not been able to complete due to the struggles as outlined. Anything short of full fees returned is less than acceptable in this instance as the company have failed to deliver what it says on the website and on top of that delivered what can only be described as a “gaslighting” form of customer success 💩🤩
I find this company's practices to be unethical and not adhering to basic human and consumer rights. They want to shut down and silence anyone who raises concerns about their service practices. I do not recommend or endorse this company in any way.
I am sure they will respond in their traditional fashion to this review. 🧐 -

I'm delighted to share a brief testimonial about my journey in learning coding basics at Shecodes. My coding journey began as a complete beginner with no technical background. Initially, coding seemed intimidating, but I was determined to learn. I found excellent online resources and mentors who guided me along the way. As I progressed, coding became a puzzle-solving adventure. Each project I tackled provided a sense of accomplishment and boosted my motivation. Coding isn't just about languages; it's about problem-solving and creativity. -

Life-changing Awesome Captivating
SheCodes has been amazing at pushing me out of my comfort zone and yet not overwhelming to the point of giving up. I would never have thought that coding could be something I was capable of, let alone something I'd enjoy. I'm looking forward to what the next stage of coding brings, thank you Matt and the SheCodes team. -

“Hi I am one of the participants of SheCodes I applied and was answered a week later really I have now finished one workshop of sheCodes basics really I have learnt a lot from them now I am able to design a webpage in the way I want. Really it's amazing I like it, before I knew only little about html I didn't know about CSS and java script and now I can try and do more. And the amazing part is that I have finished the workshop in a few days without spending on it all 3 weeks. I liked it. Thanks again for all”

SheCodes makes what we "ladies" think impossible, possible. The mix of learning a new technology that fits for purpose and create something from scratch was exciting to me. The courses are on-demand meaning you can access any time, any where. Great workshop, fantastic pedagogy!! Matt gradually explains HTML,CSS and JS steps with lots of tips and tricks. I really enjoyed it, thank you SheCodes team!🌹 -

The pace of this workshop was perfect for my needs and I learnt so much with Matt! The introduction to JavaScript was by far my favorite part because it was a bit challenging at moments, but that only encourages me to keep learning so I can gain even more experience and improve my coding skills!
I recommend this workshop to all women who want to take their first steps into tech and have zero knowledge because Matt doesn't overwhelm you with lots of info from the get-go. He really takes you slowly through it and provides lots of examples too! Also, at the end of each lesson you have small challenges, which allow you to practice all the time :)
I just started the SheCodes Pro workshop and I'm SO looking forward to continue with the rest! -

Simpply knowledgable and awesome!
SheCodes is one of the best platforms I've stumbled across! Matt's teaching methodology is awesome and made me engaged at every point in time. Though I sometimes got frustrated when I didn't get the desired output on my homework and challenges, the comprehensive solutions provided were beneficial. Overall, I highly recommend SheCodes to beginners who are passionate about coding! -

Thanks to SheCodes, I learned more than I expected and I feel confident that I can apply what I learned. The course was very well-structured and informative. Matt is a true expert in the field and he is passionate about sharing his knowledge with coders in a way that his passion is contagious. I'm very happy I was admitted to this course and I can't wait to continue learning. Best experience ever ! -

SheCodes Bootcamp
I love the boot camp training. I am learning a lot as a beginner. This has been easy for me to finish per week earlier than the deadline and the deadline makes me work harder. I am excited to apply everything I learn and hopefully be a successful web developer someday.
Thank you SheCodes for this opportunity. -

“As someone without any tech background or coding experience, I found that the SheCodes Basics course gave me all of the necessary information to understand the fundamentals of web development. It was a fun, and sometimes challenging course that gave me the basic elements of front end development. Matt is a great teacher and he explains everything with detail that is easy to understand. I can't wait to continue learning with the rest of the SheCodes bootcamps!” I am doing the SheCodes Max program and I am looking forward towards a new career path when I graduate from the program. -

I have really enjoyed SheCodes so far! I love that it feels as if they thought of any possible event/question that you might have and gave you the tools to overcome them before you even had to reach out for help! Matt is also incredibly good at explaining things simply and logically, which makes learning much more enjoyable. I used to see coding as something only a few (that had studied for years and years) could understand, but thanks to SheCodes, now I know that if you have the right people to teach you and have your heart set to learn it, you can start understanding a few things since day 1! -

As an absolute beginner who a has huge appetite for a career in tech but doesn't have an idea how or where to start from, I stumbled on SheCodes foundation on google through my search for a perfect place where I could satisfy my appetite at my own pace. With just three weeks of learning, I could develop a basic landing and interactive page using html, CSS and JavaScript. The workshops are simplified, practical and very easy to grasp even without any background in IT. I have already recommended it to my friends who have interest in tech careers.” -

I really enjoyed the SheCodes Basics workshop. Three weeks passed very quickly. When working on a project, you forget about time.The final project proved to be incredibly fascinating, and its development not only solidified my acquired knowledge but also highlighted areas for improvement. It's a cool feeling when you have the opportunity to influence the environment by changing "Background-color", "Height", "Width", adding "Image", "A", "Strong"... Magic happens before your eyes. -

I joined SheCodes Basics in July 2023. The best decision I made this whole year. This has been such a wonderful learning experience. I just loved how Matt explains each concept so clearly and patiently. He's an excellent teacher, oh and the technical team has been so helpful whenever we had questions. Quick responses, concise. I had zero coding experience and am now very confident in HTML, CSS, and Javascript. I'd recommend this to any woman who wants to learn, it's definitely worth it. -

The course progressed step-by-step through HTML, CSS, and JavaScript concepts at a pace that ensured understanding. I gained hands-on experience by building simple web pages . Whenever I got stuck, teachers and classmates helped guide me through problems with patience and encouragement. By the end, I not only grasped the foundations of web development, but also developed confidence in my skills. SheCode's supportive community and learn-by-doing approach made a potentially intimidating subject accessible. I'm so glad I took this course - it sparked a passion for coding that I look forward to pursuing further -

Phenomenal Intro to Front-end Development
I thoroughly enjoyed the SheCodes Basics workshop! It was a perfect introduction to front-end web development because it allowed loads of hands-on experience through the challenges in each chapter/section. I recommend the workshop to anyone who doesn't have much coding experience since it is incredibly beginner-friendly. Kudos to Matt for creating an excellent intro course!
