SheCodes Coding Workshop Reviews

I faced a lot of challenges with coding but after I re watched the videos many times and extending my due dates I learnt a lot. This also taught me that I have to give myself time to understand coding, This experience is one for the books and worth every time spent.

Thank you for the experience, it has been very insightful, am grateful for this course, it really has taught me a lot. The videos were pretty simple to understand. it was easy to grasp. Its amazing that there is courses such as this that help people learn more.

Since I joined shecodes .. I have enjoyed every step of the way. I have learned so much from the three week workshop. The way the classes and videos organised were very clear for me to grasp every concept for the week.Thank you shecodes for giving me this opportunity to learn about coding in a very easy and interesting way.

Plus wasn't easy and quite challenging but I always get help from Matt(workshops videos) and slack as well.

Matt's step-by-step videos allow you to follow at your own pace. I like that he takes the time to show you more challenging concepts and it is rewarding when you do understand.

I am so thrilled to have completed the SheCodes Basics workshop. It was not an easy journey for me because i was an absolute beginner, but Matt explained everything so well in his videos and whenever i had a problem, the team was there to assist . I am grateful to the SheCodes team for giving me this opportunity.

SheCodes Plus was definitely a challenge because of the amount of new knowledge and techniques that needed to be applied to the final project. There is definitely a lot going on during those 8 weeks of workshop. So it is always good to take the time to go over the videos and challenges several times to make sure it is all clear. But it was great fun building the weather app and playing with API integrations.

I loved SheCodes Basics. The short learning videos are almost always accompanied by a practical exercise so it makes it really hands on. I liked that the videos are to-the-point, concise and don't go in too much details. It's not a 3-hour long lecture : after 15min, you're actually getting your hands dirty and learning actionable stuff! For me, it was the reassuring phrases from Matt like "don't worry, nothing's going to explode, it's just not good practice to do it like this" or "this might be confusing but do it like this for now and it'll all come together in the next video" or "ok, this is a hard exercise but you can do it and don't forget the community and tools that can help you" and of course : "Happy coding!".

Easy to learn with bitesized videos. Would recommend!

SheCodes is absolutely fantastic! Coding isn't a work in the park but the instructor made it easy for me to learn, the videos are clear-cut and well analyzed. SheCodes has really ignited my passion for coding. The workshop is so user-friendly and engaging, making the learning process smooth and enjoyable. I've gained valuable skills and knowledge that have propelled my interest in coding to new heights. I highly recommend SheCodesBasics to anyone looking to dive into the world of coding with ease and enthusiasm. It's been a game-changer for me, and I can't wait to see where this coding journey takes me next!

A great initiative that will hopefully benefit many women. The structure of the workshop and the chosen programming languages were very good. It's very helpful to be able to watch the videos more often if you don't understand a part straight away. As these are recorded videos, the workshop is also suitable for doing after work and at the weekend. I will definitely recommend SheCodes to others.

This workshop has been easy to follow along with for someone who has never coded before. It is nice that we can go back and rewatch videos for help and also get support thru the Slack chat.

The past weeks l have been learning to code with SheCodes have been nothing short of extraordinary. I have learnt skills such as time management since the assignments have to be submitted after every week which allows for consistency and discipline. I love how the courses are grouped into short videos which are so easy to understand. With the help of Slack ,I have been able to correct my mistakes through the help of others. Slack has been a great instrument in teamwork and effective communication .I am so grateful to be a part of this opportunity.

SheCodes is absolutely amazing for absolute beginners or anybody interested in coding. It was easy to understand, there are resource link provided at the end of the videos which is great incase you want to read more about it. The challenges at the end of every lesson ensures that you have grasped the concepts being taught. The fact that they don't readily provide solution is great because it builds up resilience and self reliance which is very much necessary if you want to take up coding professionally. They also have a great team on slack to help you out incase you need help.

I never imagine doing a coding course, but I accept the challenge bit by bit I could learn what is coding by join SheCodes, the videos explaining were easy to understand.

I've absolutely loved my coding journey on SheCodes so far ❣️ Matt is an amazing teacher and his videos were short, to the point and very easy to understand. The best thing about each lesson is the opportunity to immediately practice what you've just learnt. The solution is then available for you to view and check your code / method against Matt's. The project at the end of this SheCodes Basics course has also been really fun and enjoyable, allowing me the opportunity to apply everything that I've learnt over the last few weeks. I can't wait to start my next workshop and continue my coding journey 👩🏻‍💻 Thank you so much Matt and the SheCodes team for this amazing learning experience ❣️ 10/10!

This was challenging, but the instructional videos, amount of support, and applying the concepts we were learning along the way made a difference in my learning. I look forward to my next SheCodes workshop and highly recommend SheCodes!

I enjoyed this workshop so much, it was challenging but the videos were clear and easy to understand.

I absolutely enjoyed this add-on workshop. I learned more and realised there's so much more to still learn. I look forward to the other workshops. The instruction videos are very clear and easy to follow along with.

Perfect for busy woman like me! It's so easy and enjoyable to learn. The videos are short and easy to understand. I am really glad my friend recommended this to me. Now, I learned a new skill and would definitely use it to better my career. Thank you so much SheCodes and Matt for this wonderful opportunity!

SheCodes was designed to make learning very easy. All the videos are straight to the point. I am grateful to the team!

This workshop was really helpfull for me! Really easy-to-understand instructions, helpfull videos and welcoming comunity

I really enjoyed SheCodes Basics. The course structure divided into short videos, small challenges and solutions makes the process of learning from scratch truly amazing. Everything step by step. Matt is such an amazing coach. I love his energy, always wishing us a Happy Coding and the SheCodes team made sure I felt supported and welcomed🥰.SheCodes is such an amazing community. I highly recommend it.🙌

SheCodes is the perfect online course for gaining practical experience with coding. I find the videos very easy to understand and they facilitate rapid learning of new content. I thoroughly enjoyed the basic course as it not only taught me about technology but also encouraged creativity. I can't wait to continue learning more advanced topics on the SheCodes platform.

This is great way to slowly get into coding. SheCodes helps with understanding the littlest of details and when coming to creating your own projects. It is also great to look back at the videos just to remind yourself of all the concepts that were learnt.

I highly recommend. Its an amazing course to understand the logic of coding and Matt's videos are clear and easy to understand. 👌🏻 Very excited to continue my journey with SheCodes. 😊

I really loved this workshop and can only recommend it to everyone who wants to find out if coding is right for you. It provides a great first glimpse into coding, with easy to follow instructions and videos.

I thoroughly enjoyed learning through the SheCodes program. The weekly challenges allowed me to put theory into practice and watch my code come alive! It was a fun learning experience, and I especially found the videos and slack communication helpful.

There is so much new information, but the short, clear videos make the tasks easy to understand. It was great experience! Let's move on!🙌👍

I had the incredible opportunity to enroll in the SheCodes Basic Workshop. I now have an understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The comprehensive videos and examples allowed me to grasp the fundamentals quickly and create my own projects. I am grateful for the invaluable skills and knowledge gained through this transformative experience.

I started this course because I was interested in making a career change and I wanted to test the waters with coding. The course surpassed my expectations! The videos were easy to follow along and understand. I'm glad I got out of my comfort zone and pushed myself to try this course!

Matt is a natural at walking people through coding fundamentals. The intro course is a great way to get your feet wet in HTML and CSS. The videos are engaging and the concepts are presented in a way that makes them easy to grasp.

I'm enjoying learning this new skill set from Matt and the SheCodes team, there are definitely times where it is frustrating and complicated but Matt's videos are pretty detailed and the team is available to help on Slack. I never would have thought I would have been able to build a "weather app."

I enjoyed the coursework. They were easy to understand and in case something wasn't clear, I could just go back and rewatch the videos without a problem. The challenges made me think outside the box for the code to work. All in all, it has been a fun experience.

Although the videos are quite comprehensive, you do have to spend time figuring out other things for yourself. But it's all part of the learning process - and it is quite fun.

Perfect start to learning how to code! Videos are super easy to follow and very informative! I'd recommend this program to anyone wanting to start coding.

SheCodes Basics is a very insightful and practical course for anyone who wants to learn HTML, CSS and Javascript from scratch. I enjoyed watching videos and completing my homework to practice what I had just learned. The format is super engaging and all the knowledge and tips that Matt shares are golden!

Great course 👍 As a beginner I found it a bit fast but at least I can do it in my own time as well as can rewatch the videos as needed. Great instructions 😀 👌

This was a good course overall, however, I thought it was a bit of a jump from the Basics course. The JS was much more complex here and at times it was quite hard to follow along to videos. However, I really enjoyed the last two weeks of having no challenges, just simply the lessons so that we could take time to implement what we learned previously.

I just completed SheCodes Basics and I've honestly learnt so much in the past 3 weeks. I love the detailed explanations in the videos as well as the support that is available every step of the way. Slack has provided me with the sense of belonging to a huge community of women who share the same interest/love for coding.

I love how the videos are not long and how everything is explained with the opportunity to do the challenges.

It been an amazing journey! Came with a more challenging project however SheCodes offers lots of support and each lesson comes with clear step by step videos allowing you to build up on your development. looking forward to the next one! 😁

I completed this course at my own pace ,its concise and really simplifies complex information in to understandable concepts. At first , I was a bit apprehensive but the videos aswell as the shecodes interactive site really helped me.I really enjoyed learning the basics .

I absolutely LOVED this workshop. I plan on continuing my skills with the next membership option. So beginner friendly, helpful chats, and videos to refer back to consistently. I've completely fallen in love with coding and hope to make a career out of it using the skills learned through SheCodes!

Enjoyed the very clear educational videos!

Dear Shecodes; thank you so much for your great and informative basic course. I have learned a lot from these practical classes and videos. Please keep up the good work. ☺️

Building the weather application in React was tricky but the step-by-step videos broke down the process. I am proud that I have learnt to use React and used functions, use states and Axios for this project.

The videos were so helpful and easy to follow. Absolutely amazing! I highly recommend.

The videos and content were easy to follow! I'd recommend this to anyone starting their journey in web development.

This was a great introduction to coding. I thought the videos were very easy to follow. The weekly homework assignments were aligned to what we learned in the videos. It also allowed us to do a little exploration on our own which I loved.

Hello everyone, firstly thanks to SheCodes for bringing this platform to all those who don't have any knowledge of programming language. All videos are nicely made, easy to understand. Frankly for me as a beginner was difficult to implement when really building any page. I found some exercises easy to do and others really head scratching so I had to watch those videos many times to be able to solve exercises. The guidance we got from the videos are incredible. Thank you so much Matt Delac and the SheCodes team. Looking forward to the further learning with SheCodes. Regards, Madhuri

The basics course was amazing! I enjoyed it so much, and I learnt so much! Matt was exceptional with the videos. I found myself easily grasping the concepts.

The Basics Add-on was a great addition to the Basics Workshop! As always, Matt's videos were easy to follow along.

The API lessons were incredibly well-structured and easy to follow upon several practice. Matt's videos explained complex concepts in a clear and concise way, making APIs seem approachable and exciting. And because they are pre-recorded, I could listen to it again and again. I appreciate the valuable skills that I can immediately apply to my own projects, making the course feel both informative and practical.

Diving into Vanilla JavaScript was not easy ..well sometimes frustrating when stuck. It required a lot of concentration while learning from the SheCodes modules, and it also demanded a significant amount of practice. There were many times when I thought, "Aha, I have understood the concept," but when I tried to code, I got stuck. This prompted me to go back and watch the videos and read related code snippets that had been provided. I appreciate what I have learned so far at SheCodes; the modules are well-paced and well-elaborated. I look forward to the next workshops and continue practicing to further mold my understanding. Thank you to SheCodes Foundation team!

I saw an ad for SheCodes on Facebook as I had been looking into taking a coding class to see if it is something I would like exploring as a career. After watching the intro, I decided to take the plunge and dive into the beginners course. I definitely learned a lot and found some elements challenging, however, I enjoyed the learning process and feel like dipping my toes in has helped me get an idea if whether or not I want to take the big plunge of going through the other courses. SheCodes made the learning easy with the videos and opportunities to apply skills with each lesson. Thank you SheCodes! We'll see if I'll be back in the future :)

Hello,i'm Phillipa and my journey so far has been quite interesting actually.First of all,my motivation behind my interest in coding stems from a profound fascination with the power to create and innovate.As i delved into the world of tech,i realized that coding isn't just about creating lines of code but of building functional pages;pages that can be used by various kind of people as they carry on with their daily duties online.So far i have come across different challenges but i am grateful for the brief but clear videos that have been created by Matt. At least now i have a better understanding of the different concepts that i came across in this level. Yes i made mistakes and almost gave up but i realised that nothing comes easily,especially if it's something that you've always dreamt of learning and growing with. In essence,my motivation behind my interest in coding lies in the belief that it's a tool for empowerment, a catalyst for change, and a gateway to endless possibilities.

SheCodes has truly been an incredible journey! Coding always seemed like this hard and mysterious world , but the lessons at SheCodes have demystified it for me (fingers crossed I'm not speaking too soon, haha!). The lessons are not only manageable but also come with challenges that let you apply what you've learned. The best part? The videos are available 24/7, so you can rewatch them as many times as needed. A big shoutout to Matt Delac and the fantastic SheCodes team for making coding an enjoyable experience!

This was a great introduction to coding. The videos were very easy to understand and Matt always gives nice tips and encourages us to google things we don't know, which helped me a lot and provided me with a deeper understanding of the things I learned. Being able to build my first landing page gave me a lot of confidence and made me look forward to the more advanced lessons. The support team is very knowledgeable and helpful. Last but not least, I really enjoyed being part of the Slack community because I felt that I was not alone in this journey and having the opportunity to help others with their questions helped solidify my knowledge.

Participating in this course has been a valuable experience for me. The instructional videos are exceptionally beginner-friendly, offering clear and comprehensive explanations of the code. Over the past few weeks, I have gained a profound understanding of JavaScript that was previously elusive to me. SheCodes provides an outstanding course with exceptional support, making it a truly commendable learning resource.

Great teaching videos!

When I first started, I had little knowledge of JavaScript, but now I can write lines of code without going to Google every 2 seconds. Their videos clearly explain all the concepts. I would highly recommend it to someone who has little to no knowledge of HTML, CSS, or JavaScript.

Such an amazing journey it has been, i felt privileged to have received the opportunity to learn more about coding, Matt's videos are really informative, he takes you right from the basics and explains thoroughly what each language does and illustrates this through the webpages as well, coding is my passion and I'd really like to express my gratitude to SheCodes for assisting women who do not have the means to acquire the skill this big opportunity of studying for free. #WomenEmpowerment #SheCodes #SheCan

I really enjoyed this workshop, I started as an absolute beginner and I knew nothing about coding. Now I can create a simple website using HTML, CSS and Javascript. The videos are really helpful and the challenges are fun!

I knew languages such as HTML, CSS and JavaScript existed and I had seen them before but would not be able to replicate work or produce anything of my own from scratch. It has been a very interesting journey: learning the different functions of these three tools and learning how to create my own works from scratch. It's definitely how they structured the work that makes it easy to learn, understand, practice and remember the work. I am so happy with the challenges I was given, they are not called challenges for decoration they were actually challenging. I have a low attention span, but for me I found that the way they divided the videos into different sub-topics did the trick in getting me to concentrate. If this was basics, I sure am nervous about the next program but supper excited as well. If you are interested in coding, don't let such an opportunity pass you! finally, just from this program, I have learnt that I love coding and would not mind doing it for the rest of my life.

SheCodes has been a transformative experience! Learning coding from scratch was a mix of fun and frustration, but Matt's videos were my guiding light. His clear explanations demystified HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for a beginner like me. The flexibility of learning at my own pace was a game-changer. SheCodes accommodated my schedule, turning coding into a manageable and enjoyable journey. Having completed the foundational course, I now feel confident and ready to delve into further exploration.

I feel so much more empowered as a Coder, from enrolling in SheCodes. I enjoyed the Basics workshop, and it enjoyed the format. Before, I watched other videos on coding, but found it too dry to continue learning. Years ago, I attempted a Computer Programming major, but had to change it, due to instructors' approach to instruction that was counterintuitive. Thank you Matt, for empowering many women, including myself, in our entry into the tech field. You are a great teacher! Of all coding programs out there, this is the most special and unique one. JavaScript was the most challenging to learn, but I still learned it better here, than from anyone else. Soon, I look forward to being paid to build landing pages.

A wonderful course with fast help through Slack. There was a shift in the course format where we didn't have challenges and mostly just videos, and I was hoping for more challenges since they really help you internalize the concepts. Overall, a pleasant learning experience.

These were 3 exciting and instructive weeks. The workshop is a great way to find out whether you enjoy coding. I definitely did. The learning videos are the perfect length and the mini challenges afterwards make it easier to memorize what you have learned. I never thought that doing homework would be so much fun. I really enjoyed it.

Wow! This was my favorite @SheCodes.io project so far! It seemed like a daunting task at the beginning, but step-by-step it started coming together. I enjoyed choosing the best word-choice, images, song lyrics, music videos, and element styling for each section. My confidence as a new coder (55 days total) continues to grow especially since overall things moved along smoothly for me. When I did come across a temporary hurdle, I explored options until I found a solution that worked. Thank you to @Matthieu Delac and his team for providing well-structured lessons and support if students need it. Now, moving on to the REACT workshop!

Learning with the videos provided has been the best learning experience ever as they are well presented and make it easy to understand

React was extremely challenging however I am happy to have had the opportunity to go back and re-watch videos and take my time understanding the content.

I have learned a lot the past few weeks, I found some of the homework challenging but the videos were so helpful. The feedback was also very helpful because one could fix their mistakes. This does feel like the beginning of something😄😄.

My coding journey with SheCodes continues to be a positive experience. Matt Delac's instructional videos are direct and concise showing each step with clear directions and explanations. The organization of the course, all the supportive materials and access to SheCodes Athena-AI coding assistant are the tools I use to learn and write my code. I know I can return to the lessons for clarification when needed. I appreciate Matt's acknowledgement that the material can be challenging to understand. He demonstrates that if the code doesn't work the first time, don't panic, just try to use the clues and find where it breaks and try again. He always offers encouragement and injects a positive spirit into the process by telling us to have fun with what we are learning. I know that may seem like a minor detail but it creates a positive mindset. I want to take what I've learned and try out some other APIs. I found one about coffee drinks and now I want to play with the API to create an app for those who love coffee. Now I'm looking forward to my next workshop. Thank you to everyone at SheCodes.

I thoroughly enjoyed learning a new skill with SheCodes and feel quite proud of my first ever coding project! SheCodes offers a gentle start with coding using a step-by-step progression in theory and clear videos to help you put everything into practice. I am very happy I took the opportunity to start learning how to code and am keen to see what more I can learn :)

I learnt a lot in a short amount of time. The videos did a create job breaking down the project into smaller chunks.

Wow! This was a tough few weeks! React is definitely a steep learning curve, but so worth it when you come out on the other side. I can definitely say it would have been impossible for me to have learnt React without the well structured, educational videos, challenges and homework by Shecodes and Matt! So grateful and proud of what I've learnt!

This online learning experience was truly enjoyable. The combination of concise videos and consistent practice with instant feedback made the learning process both easy and enjoyable. Witnessing the transformation of my final project through experimentation and refinement of my HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code was an incredibly rewarding experience.

This Add on workshop was really interesting and allowed me to use the dates and times functionalities. Thank you SheCodes for the great learning videos.

Think the help and support from the team on slack is great. Only thing i would say, because the videos are pre recorded, sometimes when Matt is speaking and going on a slight tangent, it gets a little confusing, and sometimes I need things explaining in a different way. A way that might be different to how Matt explains, so the information isn't really sticking as well as i would like.

stepwise approach well structured. Good detailed videos with hands-on and 'live' troubleshooting. It is good and encouraging to see that the mistakes or the troubles also happen to the pros - it gives motivation and helps to not give up.

This was a great challenging course. I learnt a lot from the videos and the final project itself. I can confidently say my coding skills have developed a lot.

i enjoyed the course but not sure the basic package is for beginners as lots of the skills needed for the challenges you have to figure out yourself as not in videos.

I loved the well explained videos, made everything easy to grasp. and the pace was also perfect i got to learn 1 style at a time. i loved everything, i had a wonderful experience. also the fact that i could push the deadline further if i was starting to struggle with catching up, it was awesome.

Loving the course so far, excellent videos from Matt!

This was a nice little add-on. I always like building something on a topic I love, and some really great techniques learned with embedding videos and media etc.

Loving how easy it is to follow these videos step by step to learn basic aspects of HTML CSS Javascript and API integration.

The responsive course was really fun to complete. All the information needed to complete the project was explained clearly in all the videos.

I found the course enjoyable; it took me a week to grasp the fundamentals of coding on SheCodes. The videos were thorough and easy to follow. I appreciated the hands-on experience, and the projects motivated me to delve deeper into learning.

I had a lot of fun during this workshop. The step by step videos make it super easy and digestible to comprehend, even for a total beginner like I was. It for sure makes me want to learn more!

It had been a very good journey with SheCodes so far, the lecture videos were very interesting and informative. And it was super easy to learn from the videos. I enjoyed completing all the challenges and the project was also very interesting .

I did no´t know anything about coding. I thought as Matt said in the videos, It was rocket science.. I´m from a different field, I´m from Health science I studied Biomedical Science, and Clinical Microbiology with a master degree in sales and Marketing so I Work in Sales but I wanted to experience a different field to learn something totally new for me. I work a lot of hours during the day and travel a lot (but not for fun hahaha), Despite my busy busy life I could finish the three weeks workshop (In more time of course, because my agenda it´s pretty tight), but The way Matt teaches does everything easier to learn; I love the shorts and practical videos to understand everything. Right now I´m thinking in take a big step to try to learn more about this world, probably soon I will take the maximum level of these workshops. Thank you very much, to create such a magical way to learn a field that looks super difficult and "just for men"...

I have to say that this workshop was challenging! But that's also what is making me more confident with coding. The explanations of the videos were really good and you learn step by step. I started with zero experience few weeks ago and I feel that I have a better comprehension of the coding languages now. I start to believe that a career in tech can be possible after I finish the other workshops. Can't wait to see what is next!

I've been fortunate enough to have been on a 2 year journey with shecodes; and something that started as a way of staying entertained through covid, quickly became somthing I was excited to come back to. The bite-sized videos and small hands on exercises each week, make it easy to break down and learn a lot of complicated concepts. It's practical and incredibly insightful, not to mention the Shecodes team are always happy to assist with any troubleshooting through slack. I've been extremely grateful to have gone from the intro workshops in HTML, CSS and Javascript, and now rounding it out with React. Thanks so much to Matt and the team at Shecodes for all of your hard work and support!

Super fun! The videos and challenges are engaging, so surprised at how much I learnt on the basics course. Excited to start every lesson!

Such a great intro class for HTML, CSS, and JS! Lesson videos were easy to follow and the challenges + homework were fun.

Another enjoyable short workshop! I've wondered how to code relating to timezone & this workshop has really opened another world for me. Matt has stayed consistent with easy to understand videos and very relatable commentary. I look forward to the next workshop! 😁 #HappyCoder 👩‍💻

Such a great workshop! A lot of useful information in such short videos that are easy to follow.

Excellent workshop to learn basic coding. Very well explained, Matt's videos are super educational so you can learn at your own speed! Once you start, you can't stop, it's like a game! It's a lot of fun 🤓

I quite appreciate the opportunity to have completed this course. I am grateful for the whole instructions and the detailed videos.
