    The best experience i've ever had

    The Barcelona Code School bootcamp is perfect for both beginners and those who want to enhance their skills in web development. Personally, I enrolled in the program to improve my knowledge of JavaScript and it exceeded my expectations. Pawel and George were always helpful and provided assistance whenever I needed it. I highly recommend this bootcamp to anyone who wants to become a better developer or pursue a career in web development.

    Fun and Intutive

    The experience is simply amazing! From the beginning until the end of the course, George and Pawel's unwavering support and guidance made the journey truly remarkable. The course was meticulously planned, creating a well-structured content framework with exercises that solidified my understanding. They went beyond teaching and served as mentors, encouraging exploration and different approaches. Their patience in addressing questions ensured a clear foundational knowledge.

    Great and fulfilling experience

    I did the Javascript in-person Full-Stack Bootcamp and I highly recommend it if you have no prior experience in programming (like myself). It is hard at first to wrap your head around all the knowledge you will have to digest but it is definitely worth it if you remain patient since from zero you'll manage to build your own desktop and mobile app. The teachers are really kind and great : very patient and do care about helping you understand and start your career in coding.

    Recommended place for learning code.

    I knew from Barcelona Code School from a friend that did a similar bootcamp. I contacted George and had a talk with him on remote, and also went to see the school before starting the bootcamp. The key points for me were the ratio of teacher/student (2 teachers 3 students in my case), that made me think that we could get a much more personal help (which was completely true) and the competent price.
    I started the bootcamp without any JavaScript background, just by doing the pre-course t...

    Totally worth it!

    If you want to boost your coding skills, gain confidence with code and start thinking as a developer, I strongly recommend you BCS! Bootcamp is very challenging so you need to be prepared- finish all pre-course challenges and lessons that BCS provide to you before starting a course. Before I started the Bootcamp I was very doubtful about myself taking a path as a web developer, but now after graduation, I'm 100% sure that this is what I want to do. I even started to be invited to recruit...

    JavaScript Full-Stack Online Bootcamp

    Barcelona Code School is an excellent place for those who are looking to learn web development in a short time with a real learning experience, the unique thing is that while you studying you have to pass challenges, and these challenges make you understand and become better in the programming. It was a good decision for me to join this bootcamp; now I am a full-stack developer ready for the job market.

    JavaScript Full Stack Developer Bootcamp

    This is the ideal Bootcamp for both, people who want to switch their professional careers towards Web Development or people eager to learn about it. Everything is very well explained on their website before starting the course and they reply to any questions you may have or even can arrange a videocall before you sign up.

    Great Course Structure and Support

    It was my first real contact with the programming world and the Full-Stack Javascript and React Bootcamp provides all the necessary material and support.

    I highly recommend Barcelona Code School for the structure of the course and for the help with job hunting.

    I've finished the Bootcamp with my application developed, super satisfied and ready to apply for some junior roles.

    One of the best decisions I've made

    I've been trying to learn javascript on my one for months and it was slow and frustrating, often hitting dead end and got nobody to ask for help. This bootcamp changed my life -- tons of materials, video instructions, almost instant help for all my questions and personal sessions made a big difference for me. Those guys know what they are doing, god bless them!

    Nice experience

    I highly recommend the Javascript Full-Stack on-line mentored bootcamp! I went to the 9 week program and be prepared, it's hard! I came from a total different background, no I.T. experience, and had to study really hard to catch up. I also recommend to apply 2 weeks before the real bootcamp, so you can study the pre-course at your own pace and be fully prepared for the course. 

    George and Stefano are great mentors and really helpful! I'm glad I took this course.

    Hell of a ride!!

    I came from totally different discipline and had no knowledge about coding at all. The boot camp was a journey to overcome a lot of obstacles and to succeed.
    It was by far the best decision what I made. It brought me a different point of view on how to approach a problem not only code-wise but also in life. 
    George and Stefano were awesome and patient teachers and I’m very grateful being a part of the BCS and made friends for life. I would highly recommend ”this” course but I do wa...

    BCS Full-Stack Bootcamp

    When I first signed up for the course, I saw it as an opportunity to expand my skills and improve my CV, allowing me more options to choose from in the job market, I did not expect it to have this big a change on my way of approaching problems. 

    The course itself is intense, I found myself frustrated alot of the time, now looking back at those days I find them funny, but I truly remember days where I felt really discouraged and blocked, not because of a problem with the curriculum...

    I took the Full Stack JavaScript Bootcamp to understand better what my partners were doing at work. I knew it was going to be a challenge, it's a lot to be taught in such short period, and I wasn't excited about it at all. Happened that through this school I became fond of programming, and now I feel like working with it too. I wish I had done this before.

    Scam

    The other guy who gave 1 star described everything very accurately. Under no circumstance enroll in this course. 

    Yes, you will learn but once again the best part of this course were the other (only 3) students that felt exactly the same way. The course is a scam and not even worth a friction of the price.

    On top of that the atmosphere is cold and unpleasant, the teacher is unqualified.

    Hi Wynona. 

    It really hurts our feelings to read that you are disappointed with the course. As we are always trying to find the best personalised approach to every student it seems that we have failed to meet your expectations. Maybe it was partly due to you not coming for a lot of lectures and not following the curriculum, ignoring your mentors suggestions, skipping the pre-course or simply our intensive pace and bootcamp format are not something you expected. 

    As we have proven job placements for every student who finished the course successfully and was looking for a job your claims about unqualified instructors sound absolutely unbased.

    The guy you are referring to never ever attended the course in the first place and simply started looking for excuses after receiving a full pack with materials, video lessons and recorded lectures, so he didn’t have a chance to experience the course and our teaching method.

    I just wanted to post some quotes from my emails/messages to you showing concern and availability to help and support you with the course, as we do care for every student:

    “Hi Wynona. 
    How are you? 
    Are you going to be back at school tomorrow? We need to go through the React Native section and bring you up to speed. ”

    “Hi Wynona, how are you? 
    Haven’t seen you at school for couple of days, is everything alright? ”

    “Hi Wynona. 
    How is it going? Any questions so far? ”

    “Hi Wynona. How are you?
    Could you please remind me when you are going to travel for a week? Was it the last week of the course on December 17-21?
    As we are starting React Native on Monday it would be best if you are here for this new material.”

    “Hi Wynona. How are you?
    I’m a bit worried about you skipping the lectures, especially now when we are doing react.js.
    Is there some issues/work?”

    “Hey Wynona, how is it going?
    If you want, we can have a session with you after lunch to go through some exercises or explanations to help you to catch up?”

    Etc., etc., etc…

    Regardless of all this, we are always here for you available to help with anything possible. 

    Thank you.

    Worst Code School

    The course learning instructions are weak. You will not learn much from it and you can not compete with other student from top boot camp code school. The program only last 9 weeks which is not enough time for you to master everything you need to be a good developer. If you looking to get a job after you complete the program, you will not find one because you don't learn enough for companies to be interested in you. If you read through the review, you'll realize the reviews are either fake ...

    Hi Jaymes. 


    Once again, we are really sad by the fact that you are disappointed with our school. As far as I know, it's your second bootcamp which you didn't like. Let me just go through the things you mention to once explain how it works form our part. 


    As you mentioned, the course lasts for 9 weeks and it's been proved by our graduates from both, online and in-person formats, to be absolutely enough to get prepared for the junior developer's position. We have our alumni hired in 1-2 months on average after the job placement support starts. And we have companies which already hired our graduates coming back for more of them. Which shows that they are completely satisfied. 


    As you mentioned, we provide text materials with explanations and code examples + full length video lessons with us writing and running the code explained in the lecture. It allows students to not just read and try the code but also to actually watch how it is done and follow the instructor to fully implement new concepts in practice. And before they will have to create a 'real' app after the course, as you say, students are build fully functioning apps as a part of the course. One of them is a full-stack web app (example built here: https://e-commerce-.herokuapp.com/) and another one is a native mobile app (example built here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id1414985238). Both have the server, the database and the front-end parts. So after graduation they are already know how to combine all the bits and pieces into a working application.


    Speaking of the depth for the instructions, jQuery is a long time legacy part of the curriculum, kept there for those students who are willing to learn it for some reason. And it has 5 blocks, not 1. The mongoDB section has all the information needed and the process of building an app with mongoDB is shown in the complete video lesson. Same for the rest of the topics. We actually guide students through the entire process in our video lessons since this is a mentored course.


    The comparison of our curriculum to free tutorials is completely incorrect, since courses on self-learning platforms have much lower level of difficulty and do not prepare a student for a real life work. The exercises either too simple or have an option to see the solution, which is not going to happen in real life. We are preparing our students for applying for the jobs, not just learning programming as a recreational habit. 


    And the refund policy is explained right away on our website, since you get access to all the materials, video lessons, exercises, projects, and there is no way to 'return' it we have to use this policy. It is possible to cancel the participation and get full refund before the starting date of the course, but not after you got all the materials which are actually self sufficient to finish the program. 


    Once again, really sorry to hear that and hope you will find school which is more suitable for you. 


    Best regards, 
    George

    wellThe course was a lot of fun to do! 

    Absolutely worth it if you are looking to experience and learn the basics of UI/UX design. 

    Instead of spending too much time on theory we jumped right on getting practical

    Marina Tudela is friendly and explains everything very clear. She teaches you how to really “get inside the head” of the user/customer. Muchissimas gracias Marina!
