Julie

How Julie upgraded her coding skills with SheCodes Pro and started a new career

πŸ™β€β™€οΈ Before SheCodes

Julie is from France but has lived abroad for her entire adult life - she now lives in Japan! 🏯 She loves to learn languages (which must be useful!), create art, travel, read, sing and write and play music! 🎼

She used to work as a Senior Consultant, working with clients to translate project visions and objectives into real results.

Julie had always been intrigued by the work of her friends who are software engineers and game developers. She was looking for a new hobby during the pandemic lockdown and decided to try coding!

"I started learning how to create small video games on Unity using C#. Down the line, I realized that I might need proper coding understanding and foundation to get a better grasp on what I was doing, so I bought books to teach children how to code basic games with HTML/CSS/Javascript."

Around this time, she discovered SheCodes through a YouTube ad!

πŸ‘©β€πŸ’» Her SheCodes Experience

Julie learned how to code through four workshops with SheCodes.

"It was the most accessible and the best workshop I have experienced so far. Even though it can be quite challenging sometimes, the journey has been surprisingly smooth thanks to Matt's detailed explanations and the amazing helpful team."

The SheCodes team is always on hand to help - you don't learn alone with us! 🀝 Julie found that she particularly enjoyed the advanced coding workshops, as she developed the skills to build sophisticated projects. πŸ—οΈ

"The part I enjoyed the most was the responsive portfolio and the React project as I finally felt I had a proper grasp on how to build anything by myself. Also, making everything responsive was the most satisfying experience for me as I could see my own creation come to life on any device. I felt really proud of my learning journey from that exact moment."

πŸ™‹ How SheCodes has Helped to Change Her Life

After graduating from SheCodes, Julie gained the confidence to independently create her own coding projects, as well as collaborate on open-source projects to improve her skills. 🀩

"Thanks to the portfolio that I created during my coding journey at SheCodes, I had the chance to be noticed by a few start-ups in Japan that were willing to create a new position for me thanks to my newly acquired technical expertise."

Julie has just started working as a Senior IT Consultant and UI Developer! Congratulations Julie on landing this amazing job! πŸ₯³

The skills Julie learned in SheCodes - especially in HTML, CSS and Javascript with knowledge of the React framework - are valuable in her current role.

"What I enjoy the most in coding is the creative and flexible approach to every project. Whatever you want to build there can be so many different tools to use and various ways to manage each project...I also love that there are always so many new things to learn and new things to explore as a developer."

πŸ‘©β€πŸ’Ό Advice to Future SheCodes Student

Julie's advice to anyone considering learning how to code with SheCodes? Embrace the challenge! πŸ€—

"Just embrace the SheCodes experience, it can be challenging at times but this is 100% worth it! The support team will always be there for you so don't be shy and just start coding :)"

Julie's SheCodes Plus Testimonial
β€œI am not sure how to express my gratitude for the quality that goes beyond the affordable price we paid for the SheCodes+ course. Videos are detailed, sources are available and an amazing reactive and helpful team is available anytime on Slack to help you if you get stuck. Thanks again Matt for creating this incredible Bootcamp for empowered women, I fell in love with coding! Can't wait for SheCodes Responsive and React. :)”

β€œSheCodes Responsive workshop has been a delight to go through as Matt's explanations and directions are always smooth and clear. Thanks to all the great tools provided I am very proud of the result of my first portfolio website and would recommend everyone to take this course! :)”

Julie's SheCodes React Testimonial
β€œReact course has been quite a challenge but thanks to Matt's detailed explanations and its amazing helpful team the journey has been surprisingly smooth. After going through all the courses, I can only recommend SheCodes to acquire essential coding skills. I can't wait to create my own projects with everything I have learned ! :)”
