“The classes have been nothing short of brilliant. Advanced concepts are introduced fairly quickly and it prepares the mind for the shockers in production environments. The facilitators are always ready to answer your questions. They readily answer my questions or show paths to solutions, whether in the live class or in the slack channel.”
“The live coding sessions, fireside chats, soft skills development and solving real life problems made the experience truly amazing. The Frontend tutor has been very helpful. He always takes it upon himself to share the right materials with us and is available after classes to help with blockers and errors in our codes.”
“Relationship with colleagues is great. The program made me (and many others) realise the importance of networking and working as a team, and I believe that tremendously helped foster a good relationship among us. I’ve realised the importance of team work and networking.”
“I always look forward to the Fireside Chat every Thursday because it never disappoints. They’re so nourishing & refreshing and that makes me enjoy it more. I have also learnt to solve problems even in real life, for myself and for others. Interacting with my team members has also helped me become more conversational.”
