SheCodes

I randomly stumbled upon SheCodes one day and, i had always been interested in trying out codding, but, honestly, it always seemed too difficult and complex. However, I searched around the SheCodes website and decided that it wouldn't hurt to try it out.... Read More I can definitely say that it was the best decision i could have made, since it literally changed my life! The workshop gives an excellent introduction to front end coding, while also explaining some other important matters of the subject. It is a little intensive, but nothing one cannot do (I'm living proof, since i was sick throughout the whole thing) . It is also challenging, but also very fun! Mat does a great job at explaining things clearly and making sure we're getting it. The whole environment is fun and you don't feel bored or unmotivated, much like the contrary. After this experience I realized that this is something that i want to keep learning and possibly have a career on. I never thought i'd ever feel confident enough to go through it, but this is what SheCodes does to you!

SheCodes workshop is an amazing way to get introduced to HTML, CSS and JavaScript. During a two day course, you learn the basics of programming and the languages already mentioned. One could think that in two day you could not possibly understand all... Read More of this information, but given its friendly "classroom" environment, the teaching method (say - show - practice) and the continuous application of your knowledge (either through the classroom exercises, homework or the final project) it is certain that you will remember and fully understand the content. Plus, everybody is amazingly friendly - Matt, the volunteers who are always available and the students. I would 100% recommend it!

My decision to sign up for this course was 100% right. I wanted to try if coding was a good option for me, and it definitely helped me a lot since I’ve been able to get to know how simple and fun coding can be.

Matt is great, the workshop is very intense,... Read More and it helped to figure it out what kind of developers we want to become.

I came across She Codes when trying unsuccessfully to learn it by myself. I made my mind just the night before to give an opportunity to this workshop. And I am glad I did! I needed some motivation outside the online courses and guidance. It was my first... Read More time interacting with code and it felt incredibly empowering. As an inspiring marketeer, learning to code will definitely help develop better digital marketing activities. I had the opportunity to learn the basics of programming with HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Thank you She Codes for presenting a whole new world!

Two days at the SheCodes workshop and I'm already a professional developer, or at least it made me feel like one!
Most people get scared to even think about learning code: I was one of them until I met Matt in an SC "teaser workshop" at the place I work... Read More and my fear turned into excitement. Starting off with the insight Matt gave us about women's role throughout history and how can we be more relevant in the current tech revolution. It made me feel like I could play a part in its development hence I enrolled in the workshop.
Logistics wise, everything was so well organized, all the volunteers were very helpful and they made a great job creating a nice, welcoming environment for coders to share ideas, chill out during breaks and even having a drink after a long day of coding.
The learning experience was off the chart, in so little time I got to learn a lot and have close contact with a variety of subjects that helped me prepare for a more intensive study in the future. The final project submission was both very challenging but rewarding due to all the support from classmates at Slack.
Overall, the one thing I would change is the number of days, because I surely didn't want to leave!

She Codes was an awesome experience! With a fast-paced induction into HTML, CSS and JavaScript it was amazing to feel like I was able to create a landing page from scratch in just a few hours. If coding seems way too much for you, Matt will help you feel... Read More motivated and empowered throughout this really fun weekend!

Honestly, this workshop is amazing! It helps women to see new opportunities in their career, I’ve never seen so many happy and motivated students, every part of the workshop was fun and interesting. For almost 10 years I worked as a Public Relation manager... Read More in Russia and I didn’t have any experience in coding. I’ve visited a lot of courses and classes, but this workshop changed my professional life completely, after only 2 days of such an intensive program I feel more confident in communication with my IT colleagues. I opened a new "Coding World" for myself. I highly recommend SheCodes!

If you're looking for a good introduction to the coding world, then take She Codes and She Codes Plus! In the She Codes weekend workshop, I learned HTML, CSS, and JavaScript basics. This helped me in She Codes Plus, where we reviewed the coding basics... Read More and learned React. We also built a cool project during She Codes Plus, which is a great thing for me to add to my developer portfolio. After only 6 weeks I feel like I can pursue a career as a developer if I want to!
