I'm not going to pretend it was easy, I'm not going to pretend there weren't times that my laptop nearly went out of the window, but have faith because eventually this will all click with time and practise. The most beneficial part of this course for me was weeks 7 and 8 where we could code along with the videos to build the final project (I highly recommended doing this step by step with the videos rather than trying to do it all at the end). When I was working on the early stages of this course I never expected that the Javascript would be the part I look forward to doing the most, but it really is witchcraft and Matt is so right, it makes me feel SO powerful.
I enjoyed every minute of the journey. Matt's videos and the SheCodes support team were very helpful and added to my success with the workshop.
Videos are really easy to follow, grateful for the assistance I got when I got stuck in some lessons. Can't wait for what's to come!
Learning the basics of coding, was a lot easier than I expected. The instruction videos are very clear and the homework assignments are always graded very quickly.
Thanks for all the ideas and new knowledge, you inspire me all the time throughout all the workshops that I have participated. Am really proud to have created my own portfolio. Being a full-time mom, it is not easy to follow courses but your videos were focused and to the point. This was something that I wanted to do since a very long time and now its finally done. Can't wait to use it because it will help me in my search for a job and introduce myself to the IT world.
SheCodes was great because the videos are very clear and self explanatory. I could understand and while watching to the videos, I was working on my codes and practicing what I was learning in class. I took it at my own pace and I recommend it for someone like me, who works full time and has a non stop toddler at home.
The SheCodes Basics workshop has been so much fun - I've really enjoyed the challenges, homeworks and my final project! I really like the way Matt's lessons and videos carefully build your foundation of knowledge bit-by-bit - it helps to retain the information much better. Would highly recommend!
I have avoided coding for years as I thought it meant you had to be good at maths (which I certainly am not!) but after watching the free introductory course, I was hooked! Matt is fantastic - he explains everything clearly and the videos are only 5-15 minutes so they are the perfect length. I have really enjoyed the challenges, it's great that you get the opportunity to put theory into practice at each step. I would 100% recommend this workshop to fellow beginner coders!
Having access to a group of fellow students and professionals on Slack for almost instantaneous assistance is so helpful when learning from home. I felt the course content progressed at a steady pace, and when you finish the course wanting more content you know the course has succeeded in the aim of introducing you to coding and inspiring you to continue learning. I've watched a few coding instructional videos and Matt has been the best presenter by far; the content he presents is concise and his delivery is clear and personable.
I am never sure about online courses, but I am glad I took the chance on SheCodes! Everything is so clear and well explained, from the lesson videos to the challenges and what's needed for the weekly projects. The feedback on questions via Slack was quick and helpful! I was looking to see if this would be a viable career choice for me and thanks to SheCodes my interest is definitely sparked!
I had a lot of fun while learning how to code with the basic workshop. The way the course is structured is great. The videos are not too long so it's easy to keep up and they are also packed with a lot of knowledge! I learnt a lot and I definitely recommend the course to everyone who would like to learn the basics of coding 👩🏻💻
This was a great workshop, with very well explained videos and engaging content, as usually. I really like the tools we have learned to use and the final result of the responsive web sites. I find the workshop's content extremely useful; now, my web pages look (and behave) like every other webpage.
Really enjoyed the course and feel like I've learned a lot in a short space of time. The videos are clear and easy to follow. They're broken down into manageable sections so it's not too overwhelming. The slack platform is very helpful too as you can easily find answers to any issues or questions you have as they've probably already been asked by someone else. If not, the tutors are quick to respond and clear in their answers.
This is one of the best online course (if not the only one) that is so effortless and simple to follow!! Matt really makes it seem so easy to code and understand what he is saying in his videos. Can't wait to start the next course (SheCodes-Responsive)in a couple of weeks!!!
I have no background in coding and I feel that now with SheCodes Basics I have a better understanding on what it is and how to read it, I feel that with the knowledge that I acquired I can easily create some simple newsletters for example. I liked that the learning videos are short and instructive and that almost each lesson has an exercise. Looking forward to start SheCodes Plus 🤩.
This course was very challenging for me so I am thankful I had the help of João throughout as well as watch the videos as many times as needed to help me understand the information. I am happy I took this course to open my eyes more into the tech world and coding languages!
Really enjoyed the course, Matt's explanations and videos are very well thought out and straight forward to follow. I loved doing this course and if I had more time would do definitely continue to do more!
I've always wanted to learn how to code, but didn't know where to go. I'm so glad I found on SheCodes, and decided to go for it. Matt is a great teacher, his videos were easy to understand and I feel like I'm actually learning a practical skill!
I truly loved the videos, exercises and the help that we had via slack!
I highly recommend this course as I , personally, had a blast learning the basics of coding and working on my assignments. I never thought I would be able to work with code, but thanks to SheCodes I feel empowered :D The instructions in the videos are clear, the solutions are very helpful, so learning and improving is easy! I Thank Matt and the team for this valuable experience !
I really enjoyed the practical set-up of the SheCodes workshop. The videos combined with the practical assignments kept me focused. The short assignments are a great way to instantly put into practice what you just learned. It also kept me motivated as you see your own progress on the spot. The videos are very clear and the option to fast forward is very helpful if you want to rewatch a specific section.
Wow, at first; I never thought or imagined I could get to this stage. Coding is interesting when you give you mind and commitment to it. I am inspired to continue learning. I love coding and I believe with time I will be good at it. Shecodes.io, Matt Delac, and the entire team of Shecodes.io are the best in teaching coding from scratch. With Shecodes.io learning is fun and interesting. I was never bored! Each lessons what properly explained with good videos. The Challenges after each lessons also gave me the boost and confidence to continue learning. Shecodes.io is the best is teaching every lady how to code!
I discovered SheCodes on Instagram and I am very positively impressed. Matt explains in the videos exactly what to do and if you get stuck you get help. I find that very cool. Creating my project was also a lot of fun. - thank you very much! I highly recommend this workshop.
SheCodes Plus was an incredible roller-coaster ride, with ups and downs and full of excitement. I had a lot of fun (and got frustrated on occasions) going through the lessons and looking for solutions on Slack and other sources. Matt's videos are an excellent guide and the tech support goes above and beyond: João is a saint! Can't wait to start with SheCodes React!
As usual, love SheCodes courses. Great content for the money, simple videos, easy to follow, even from someone with little experience in coding. Good support from the team, always available to answer your questions. HIGHLY recommend it! :)
I like how the course is constructed. I think is great that videos are not that long but contain a lot of important knowledge. I highly recommend this course, and I'm looking forward to the next one! :)
I had been thinking quite a lot about starting to learn how to code but didn't really get into it with the books and courses I had. Finding SheCodes was the best that could have happened to me. I so much enjoyed learning step by step the basics with the videos and challenges. Everything was easy to follow but still challenging. A great mix. Can't wait to start with the next course and dive further into the world of coding. Thank you Matt and the SheCodes Team for this amazing opportunity.
So fun! I was blow away with how bite-sized and comprehensive Matt's videos and instructions were. I would highly recommend anyone interested in dipping their toes into the coding world to check this out. I'll be recommending to everyone! <3
Thanks a lot, SheCodes, that I could learn React with your workshop! Your step-by-step-videos with Matt as a very pleasant instructor are very helpful and it was motivating to continue and to create some applications with you. It was fun!
After years of planning to learn how to code I've finally started doing it. And it's all because of SheCodes! I loved the introductory video which explained everything in such a simple way that it gave me a feeling that I can totally do it. And here I am. I've just finished the SheCodes Plus and I feel hungry for more. All the workshop is so well planned, very detailed explanatory videos and the challenges was just the right thing for me to start learning how to code. And I know that I won't stop here.
This is a great course. I did the SheCodes Basics 3 week course and I've enjoyed every minute of it! Matt explains things really well in the videos, and the challenges and homework are really good for checking your understanding. I'm looking forward to doing more SheCodes courses.
Learning Javascript was very challenging, but the step-by-step videos with Matt demystify the entire process and even made it a lot of fun going through the lessons. It is mandatory to dedicate a few hours of practice.
This course was challenging in the best way possible. I have learnt so much and enjoyed it thoroughly. The videos are easy to follow and very detailed.
I had no coding experience before starting this course but really enjoyed it! All the information is covered clearly in the videos and it is so satisfying to see your work come together and progress! I would recommend this course to anyone interested in learning how to code.
I enjoyed every week of this course, the videos are very well explained and I had great support at Slack when I had specific questions. Shecodes plus was a great journey that I want to continue.
SheCodes have clear and interesting videos and provides a lot of support. It allows you to express your creativity and learn along the way.
I tried the "going it alone" route by watching Youtube videos and became immediately overwhelmed and confused. After seeing the SheCodes ads while watching videos, I clicked on the ad and decided to try out the Free Coding Class that SheCodes offers. And I am so glad I did. I needed structure and community in order to learn how to code and Matt was the perfect instructor. He "decoded" coding for me and I realized this isn't just a phase - I really enjoy coding and I am looking forward to taking the next classes so I can continue to develop this new skillset. Thank you Matt and the SheCodes team for this opportunity.
After completing the first workshop, SheCodes + was a great addition! It was challenging at times but helped me get a deeper understanding of HTML, CSS and JS. I surely learned a lot! The course is perfectly organized, allowing me to come back to specific videos whenever I need it which is great. I'm excited to keep learning and definitely motivated to enroll to the other SheCodes workshops!
I really enjoyed the workshop and the format in which it's taught. The content and length of the videos made working through the course really manageable to fit in to the rest of your day. This format made studying with a baby at home far less scary than it sounds! I found myself always happy to watch the next video and complete the next challenge, even when tired after a long day. Videos were engaging and challenges were fun. Cannot wait to continue on with SheCodes.
SheCodes is an amazing course! The videos are very informative, in a step by step way that allows you to practice and apply every new skill. You can easily adapt the pace of your learning and build your own schedule. There are many resources available and great support from the SheCodes team and the SheCodes community. Can't wait for SheCodes+ :)
I really enjoyed getting to know react. the course is well built and very well maintained. The videos take you step by step giving all relevant information. I do wish the course was longer and had more react tools and gave more than just the base.
SheCodes is a really great course for whoever wants to start from the basics of coding. The videos are really informative and take you step by step in learning all the techniques of the different coding languages. Even though this is an online course, all resources are at the students' disposal every time we get stuck while studying.
The workshop is awesome if you want to dive into the world of a coder and have no experience at all. I really enjoyed all the little videos and tasks and it really made me understand a lot of things that coders say, which i didn't understand before. Thanks for this awesome opportunity.
SheCodes Plus was just as amazing as SheCodes Basics!! I would definitely recommend. The videos are clear and everyone is super helpful!!
I really enjoyed SheCodes Basics as an introduction to coding. I found the videos easy to follow and the challenges interesting and a helpful way of checking in with what you have learnt.
I really LOVED taking the SheCodes React course! It gave me all the tools I needed to build an app from the beginning to the end, using everything I learned in SheCodes Basics and Plus, in addition to learning how to streamline all my code in React. I love this method of learning, with Matt's videos in which he explains and shows the whole process, and also the challenges and homeworks, that allowed me to practice and learn, and also prepared me to the final project. I'm looking forward to getting on SheCodes Responsive!
SheCodes Plus built on what I learned in the initial class. It was a really great transition and helped me hone the skills I had while adding extra layers of complexity. I especially enjoyed learning the API integration and it made me more comfortable in JavaScript when developing functions and sorting through arrays. Matt's videos are great and the SheCodes team is phenomenal at answering questions and helping you work through issues.
I highly recommend SheCodes! The videos are easy to follow.
It was a fun way to lean to code. The videos explained everything very well and the challenges encouraged to find creative solutions. The resources were well prepared.
I had a little experience with HTML before I took this course. Now I can comfortably code and I understand the concepts a lot more than before I took this Workshop . Matt made it quite easy to understand in the videos. I am grateful to the SheCodes team for the great work they're doing. I would highly recommend this course to anyone!
Great basics course! I'm excited to continue and learn more. Matt does a great job of teaching in his videos! It's very interesting and fun to learn from him.
I really enjoyed this course and learned some great stuff in only three weeks! I would highly recommend it and I will definitely take other courses. The online videos and Slack support work perfectly. I'm looking forward to continuing this journey.
SheCodes Plus was fun and challenging. I think content on videos is pretty useful and I'm happy with what I've learned.
I absolutely loved taking this workshop! I had never done any coding before and I can say that videos are easy to understand and Matt makes the content fun and engaging. I can't wait to take the other workshops!
I have really enjoyed the SheCodes Plus course. I think that it is really well structured and it allows you to learn comfortably at your own pace with weekly deadlines to keep you on track. The videos are very clear and easy to follow and it's pretty incredible how much you learn in such a short space of time and on one project. Definitely a good springboard to start from!
“I had never coded before I took these workshops, I wasn't sure what to expect. The tutorial videos are really easy to follow along with and I was able to build my knowledge and see results at the same time. I have really enjoyed the workshops and have loved playing around with web design! Fingers crossed for my future career change 😊And thank you to Matt.”
This course was truly a challenge, but well worth it when I tackled a problem! The help options are wonderful and I found myself understanding the fundamentals easily thanks to the in-depth instructions videos. I have learned a new skill and cannot wait to keep coding!
I really enjoyed this course, the way the lessons are split into fast, straight to the point videos is great! Also, having challenges and a project to work on is extremely helpful for people that "learn by doing".
I have thoroughly enjoyed the SheCodes course. It has been challenging, and exciting to learn something new. I appreciate the work that has gone into creating such a cohesive course, from the explanation videos, challenges/solutions, to the Slack chats and the help from reading other peoples questions!
Video content was easy to follow, videos were done at a good pace - not to fast, not too slow. Good amount of content each week to be able to juggle work and family life and still complete on time!
My co-worker recommended this workshop, and it was a great introduction to coding. The videos were not too long or overwhelming for beginners.
I was looking for a course that eased me into the world of coding and the SheCodes basics course was the perfect thing. The videos were easy to understand without doing any handholding and allowed me to both get a good grasp and be self sufficient at the same time.
I chose to do a SheCodes Basic course because I am interested in a career change. Since I had never coded before I was a complete beginner but quickly picked up what was taught in class. I like how you can slow down the teaching videos when you're learning something new if it's very complicated. Very proud of myself for having completed this course and for everything that I've learned.
I did three courses with SheCodes the beginner’s workshop, the shecodes plus and shecodes react. I enjoyed the fact that the short videos were easy to understand , the knowledge shared was up to date and the questions were always answered within hours. This made the learning experience easier and more accessible to everyone even those who don’t have any coding background. Thank you :)
Would definitely recommend to people that are brand new to coding, Matt goes everything in a very detailed manner that doesn't overwhelm you. The videos are easy to follow along to and courses can be done at anytime which provides great flexibility. The only things I didn't like was having to do the first two lessons on codepen and then switching to VS Code for projects after and having the CSS and JS done within the HTML file (but I am sure that it's like that so the team can grade things easier).
Loved doing the course, the videos are very informative and Joao was so helpful on Slack! The slack community was so valuable throughout, super happy with what I've learned.
Loved it. Very good videos, easy to follow but explained in a efficient manner.
I have never thought that it could be so easy to learn coding! During my quarantine, I decided to develop myself to make a career change which I have alwasy wanted. I stumbled upon SheCodes after a quick research. I've learned the basics of HTML, CSS and Javascript. Matt's way of teaching makes it a lot easier to a complete beginner to understand. SheCodes is not offering just videos to watch! The fact that there are challenges following each lesson enables you to practice what you've just learned. I am really thankful to Matt and to the whole SheCodes team! For sure, I will continue with SheCodes plus because it is so much fun and the satisfaction of coding and creating is inexplicable. 😀
I started with a beginners course out of curiosity. Coding is something really far out from the type of work I do right now, but I wanted to see if this is something I could enjoy doing. The videos and the assignments are fun and easy, which kept me motivated and interested in learning further :).
It's such a big joy when you see the computer doing what you instruct it to do! I enjoyed this workshop a lot: the mini-videos help you understand coding step by step, so it's not scary anymore. It gets easier and funnier!
Equally challenging and rewarding course, I really like the structure, the videos and what a great project to finish with! At times, Lacking sometimes in basic knowledge and theory when it came to JS, but overall very good :)
I really enjoyed this coding class. Matt is an excellent tutor. His videos are very easy to follow and to understand. So happy to see the result of my progress 😊.
Wow is where I can begin regarding SheCodes courses. Matt is hilarious - I found myself frequently bursting out in laughter while listening to his lectures. His lectures were also clear, concise, inspirational/motivational, delivered at the perfect pace, and it was very insightful to see how he problem solved in the videos itself. Initially learning to code was quite challenging and stressful..but as I completed each course on SheCodes, my perspective changed to see coding as long-game that is feasible as long as I am persistent in my efforts. The Technical Assistant on slack, Joao was very helpful and prompt to respond. The participating students raised a lot of great questions that I learned from. Other team members I had the pleasure of connecting with - Lexi/Sara were also very helpful. THANK YOU SheCodes!
I really enjoyed how the workshop is structured. The videos were well explained and the challenges were very helpful (since through practice it's easier to understand how everything works). I can't wait to learn more about code.
Coding seemed very daunting before I took this course, but the videos were so well explained and the challenges really helped to understand every step of the way. I'm so glad that I took this class, and I can't wait to continue my coding journey!
The course was very useful because I was able to create a fully working, hosted small application. The example videos was very helpful to reach this goal. They were easy to follow and profound.
Instructional videos are very clear and informative! Learned a lot in a short period of time!
SheCodes Plus was an awesome workshop. It was challenging at some points but the explanation videos are very well structured and the extra support you get on slack is great. Looking forward to the next one!
I loved the course I have learnt so much in just three weeks. Easy to follow videos and challenges and I am happy that I will still have access to the videos after the course is complete.
This was a lot of fun! I took the course on a whim looking to expand my knowledge and gain some new skills. I found the videos easy to follow, and the cheat sheets were certainly helpful when I was stuck. Looking forward to continuing on in SheCodes Plus!
I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and the videos were clear and easy to follow - as promised, it is definitely beginner-friendly! The challenges after each lesson provided good opportunities to cement my learning and their incremental difficulty through the lessons helped smoothen the learning curve. I appreciated how there was always help available to troubleshoot my work through the Slack Channel as it can be difficult to spot your own mistakes especially after staring at the code for really long!
I was always curious about coding but never knew where to start. SheCodes made it easy to follow and learn with their lessons and videos!
Matt's videos are simple to follow and the whole process is both fun and rewarding!
I've absolutely loved taking part in my first SheCodes workshop. The videos strike the perfect balance between being accessible whilst also remaining time efficient and challenging! Anytime I was stuck there were plenty of resources to get me back to making progress. Would definitely recommend to a friend!
I really enjoyed Matt's teaching modality: short videos definitely allow you to keep the engagement high and to learn step by step. Highly recommended!
I am so happy I found SheCodes! I never would have thought that I’d love coding so much but I can definitely say that it’s now something I look forward to the most each day! The videos and lessons are so easy to follow and this whole thing has been such a great experience. I can’t wait to keep learning more!
Really please with how much I have learnt in such a short period of time, videos and instructions were easy to follow.
I started off as a beginner, with absolutely no knowledge on how to code. After doing the first three week workshop I now know how to code a bit. I love how you can complete assignments at your own pace but still meet a deadline. Matt literally breaks it down in his videos, step by step making it super easy to learn. I am now excited to move on to SheCodes Plus!
This review is a contrast to the review of the first Shecodes course. Overall, I really struggled with this course. For me, it felt like a massive step-up and I am not sure I made it. I have submitted a very basic and flawed final project which I aim to keeping working on. I felt many of the JS topics were rushed and too advanced for me as my only experience was that provided in the first certificate experience . Everyone else seems to have swam through theirs with ease. So, I think working full-time, being a parent and being older than most in the cohort has not helped! I regret to say this will be the last of my Shecodes experience as I really struggled with holding onto and applying the learning provided. Good luck but definitely be prepared to watch those videos several times.
The coding in this course got a lot more difficult, but I found that I was able to retain the information a lot better than I thought I was able to when watching the videos. I highly recommend this course and I'm looking forward to the React workshop!
So i loved the videos but I wish that it were a bit more self-paced. I feel like I really struggled to learn the if/else statements and wanted more time to focus on learning them.
I have gained useful insights on how to build a webpage using CSS, HTML, and JavaScript. I would highly recommend SheCodes, because it is easy and fun to learn, unlike other coding courses where there are longer videos and multiple-choice tests.
Loved the process of learning something new. It was challenging at times trying to figure out how to make something work, but with the help of the team and the videos that Matt had provided for us was amazing help. Can't wait for the next step
This introduction to coding was a great training for the absolute beginner, I was. The videos are explaining HTML, CSS, and JAVASCRIPT functionalities very clearly concise and easy to digest. It really increased my interest for coding even though there were a lot of try-and-errors. It is just amazing to realize what you can do even with some simple code!
All I can say about this workshop is WOWZERS!😲 I didn't realize until now that the baseline languages I've been learning in college(C++,Python,Etc) is like a quick start to knowing just about all of them. I didn't expect to catch on as quick as I did, but it happened and its all thanks to workshop! I really appreciate the assistance from the tutors and videos. Its showed me that I'm capable of way more than I know when it comes to coding now more than ever!😊😊😊
I thoroughly enjoyed this introduction to coding workshop, from the detailed videos and explanations to all the challenges and the final project I had to build. Matt's teaching style is easy to follow and this contributed a lot to understand each concept and how to apply it in practice. I am very happy I came across this academy and that I challenged myself to take this initial course. It actually made me realise coding is fun and satisfying, and I am keen on continuing this challenge and learn more complex concepts. Thank you Matt and SheCodes team!
I really love taking the SheCodes workshop! The lessons are easy to follow and the community on Slack was super helpful. Although I am new to coding the lessons didn't feel overwhelming because they were broken down into videos 15 minutes or less.
I feel like I learned so much throughout this workshop! I really enjoy the detailed videos that Matt created, especially the ones for the final project. They made it really clear to learn the fundamentals of HTML/CSS/JS, and if I needed extra support the Slack community was amazing. I'm really looking forward to continuing with both the React and Responsive workshops!
This is a great workshop for beginners like myself! I started this with absolutely no experience and I am proud of what I am capable of creating! Matt is an excellent instructor. All of the videos are very helpful. Highly recommended if you are curious about the world of coding!
Easy to follow and short videos, very engaging content and interesting projects to work on.
