    The most enriching programming course of my career

    I've been a programmer for 10 years but my work has been exclusively in banks, and this year I finally decided that I needed to change my line of work if I wanted to achieve what I really desired to do professionally. So for a couple of months I was searching for a course that enabled me to absorb the knowledge and learn first hand from people that had years working on my desired line of work (web development) and this course was exactly that. The amount of knowledge and tips based on real...

    A good decision for my future

    I studied Computer Sciences and was great, but I felt it was not enough, I thought I was needing something, like an "extra" or a "plus". At the university I learned about programming, but I didn't know about the web.

    After try 4Geeks Academy I feel I have all I need to be a go web developer. Know I have the power to create knew digital tools to change the world and use WordPress to say it! :-)

    It was a very thorough program and I'm grateful of Ernesto M. (teacher), Nancy (teacher's assistant), and the tutors. We went through a lot of material which is what I was looking for. I wished the job search program was a little more thorough and part of the program time. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone who is dedicated and ready to work!

    Best class

    Best decision I've ever made so far. Our instructor Mr George knows his craft, very helpful and patient with us. I can only wish it lasts longer so I could learn more. It is fast paced though, not for everyone. And also you need to dedicate, i was fortunate to live on my saving during that time so I fully dedicated my time to it. The in-person is the best way to go, unless you're inteligent enough to it on your own(online).

    After talking to many schools and having a long day at work, I was displeased with talking to someone from 4Geeks Academy. During the whole conversion, it was apparent the person I was speaking to was annoyed, impatient, and seemed bothered. The person I was talking to became irritated when I couldn't recall specifics on their program and kept interrupting me with an annoyed voice "TELL ME WHAT A SOFTWARE ENGINEER IS" he said this almost three times as I was trying to explain how I was g...

    This Bootcamp is okay at best. I recently graduated from 4 Geeks. I feel like my cohort was cheated. There were times the instructor didn’t show up for a class or is running late. When he did decide to show up the material was rushed.
