I arrived at Coding House one week ago today, and I am so excited for the next four months here.
This place is amazing! The instructors talk about code like I used to talk about troll dolls when I was twelve. ie. they are passionate, super knowledgable and deliver information in a really engaging way.
My cohort is a community of the most interesting, friendly, and compassionate people I've ever met. Everyone is more than willing to help each other out and are encouraging and excited about the projects.
Its definitely an intense program though. Class runs from 9:00 Am until 8:00PM every day -- with an hour for lunch. And 4-6 hours of homework to complete before class the next day.
TAs stay and help out until at least 11:00PM, so if you get stuck they can give you a push in the right direction.
There have been a couple lessons where I got lost a bit, but the assignments are very good practice of the skills learned that day, and even though I have not completed all of the assignments in full I have learned so much about javascript, keyboard short hand and efficient coding skills. I think my productivity has increased about ten fold in one week.
That being said, I've got to dive back in to it.
Check out my git hub to see what I've built so far.
