Haiku Academy

Hey there! Let me tell you about the incredible time I had at Haiku Academy. This coding bootcamp was an absolute blast! During the seven-week program, we dove headfirst into full-stack web development. We learned JavaScript, HTML, CSS, React, MongoDB... Read More and more. The instructors really knew their stuff and made sure we were up-to-date with the latest in-demand tech skills. But you know what made it even better? The awesome classmates and instructors I had the pleasure of learning with. We shared many fun memories and supported each other on our journeys to become programmers. And let's not forget the location—Koh Phangan was our tropical playground! On our days off, we hit the beaches, explored the island, and soaked up the incredible nature. It felt like the perfect environment to learn something challenging and new. If you're looking for a coding journey, Haiku Academy is where it's at. The curriculum is top-notch, the friendships you'll make are priceless, and the paradise backdrop is unforgettable. Big thanks to Tony and our TA Ester for a great experience. Haiku Academy gets my enthusiastic recommendation, forsure!

These 7 weeks were the best of my life, the island gives you an opportunity to fix everything about your life as you get the freedom and control of everything you do, the way you want it done. It's peaceful, rural and full of activities. The whole batch... Read More was amazing in terms of tolerance and support. We grew so close together as friends that it was difficult to say the last goodbye at the end of the bootcamp. The course is pretty intense, paced just right that you don't feel overwhelmed. I went in with zero programming knowledge and came out a confident full stack developer. The schedule & lectures are pretty well thought out. I was running my own business, which obviously I had to work on remotely while being there. Didn't have any trouble managing between the school, the work or having fun. You gain confidence by applying your recently learnt skills on the projects assigned to you. Tony (The Instructor) & Ester (The TA) both were very helpful with getting you through the projects whenever you got stuck. Their test based approach is highly appreciated as it develops a habit in you to test everything before moving forward. Guidelines on all aspects of programming from Fundamentals to Job Applications are pretty well detailed. Ester (The TA), one of the best humans I have interacted with. She was very polite, helpful & friendly. Plus point, she used to organize super events after school hours to keep everyone engaged. Tony (The Instructor, AKA Sensei), made sure we all were caught up with everything without getting exhausted. Very clear with the instructions and explanation. He was very friendly, specially when you would ask for any sort of guidance on or off course. Plus point he would help us keep track of events going around on the island. Highly recommended for someone who's looking for a career switch into programming.

If anyone reading this is on the fence about doing the course, I hope my review can convince you to get off of it and sign up. Taking the course was an amazing experience, the content was well paced, structured and explained with excellent 1:1 teaching... Read More from David and Tony for those moments when you’re getting stuck. I found the format of lectures in the morning and self motivated practical work throughout the day a really affective learning practice. I came into the course with zero programming experience and only a little html & css knowledge, and was able to learn the fundamentals of JavaScript that has enabled me to easily create web applications with modern JavaScript library’s such as React. The island of koh- Phangan is an incredible place to spend two months, Tony knows everything about the island and organises plenty of fun excursions for the group on evenings and days off. There’s something for everyone in Phangan; great Thai food, beautiful beaches, parties in the jungle. My favourite part of the course was the people; working alongside awesome class mates as well as David and Tony, we became like a family and spent loads of time together, helping each other out with coding problems aswell and having a few beers and a game of pool after class. Most of the time when something sounds too good to be true, it usually is, however this course exceeded my expectations massively, a brilliant and seminal life experience.

An incredible and unforgettable experience. The chance to learn the skills needed to springboard a new career whilst enjoying life on a tropical paradise island. The course is well structured, paced and facilitated, with modern and relevant content. The... Read More teaching appeals to an array of learning styles to provide a rounded experience. Tony and David were fantastic teachers and extremely knowledgeable, able to explain the topics clearly and provide additional detail when sought out; great people and great to discuss tech with. The small class sizes made for a personal experience, where our group of students quickly became a family. We collaborated on work to support each other and then also had plenty of fun. The crowd who attended the course were fantastic. All the learning is set on the back-drop of fun and adventure on the island, which has a range of things to offer - beaches, good food, parties, resorts, waterfalls. Tony is familiar with the island and able to point out the best spots and also organised group activities. It was an intense and unforgettable few months of learning, growth and adventure. Nothing short of life changing.

The course from Haiku Academy gave me a solid understanding of the fundamentals of programming. The tech stack applied is modern and gives a good insight the full stack development. The course pacing suited me extremely well and with only 10 students... Read More and 2 teachers everyone got all the attention they needed. The course material is very well put together and both Tony and Ester were great at explaining everything. I had the best time with Haiku and Koh Phangan.

Writting this after taking a long time investigating the different bootcamp options feels great! The Tortuga Coders bootcamp was amazing! I choose it for the language (JS) and the location (Thailand) and I was impressed by both of them and more. The small... Read More size of the batch made you feel in a family, learning and sharing together all the time. In the 2 months I spent on the course I made friends for life. Besides that my understanding of programming, infrastructure and implementation increased a lot. I recommend this course for beginners or people that feels that learninig programming is overwhelming. You will not regret doing this bootcamp at all. I don't believe there is any other better course in terms of quality and price relation (specially for the amazing living standard that Koh Phangan offers to you).

At first, I thought this bootcamp was too good to be true. Everything was in my check list: location, price, in person classes and change of career path for beginners. Since the first part of the bootcamp, the 4 weeks online course, I realized that the... Read More classes were well though and organized. Then the second part, the 7 weeks in person classes, was like a dream. I met these amazing people who we were all together trying to figure out what to do in life or just trying to learn a new career path. Having a small group makes you part of a new family. The content of the course is incredibly well planned, the projects you work on are there to help you progress little by little and by the time you look back you won't believe how much you've learnt. It is overwhelming at some point, but Tony and David were there to help all the time. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking for a Full Stack Dev Bootcamp!

Tortuga Coders was such an amazing Bootcamp and great experience! Tony was an awesome Instructor and we learnt so much every day, Koh Phangan and La Casa were the perfect Locations for this course and the other people in the group were amazing - I would... Read More highly recommend this course to everyone. I should have done this years ago

Tortuga Coders was the perfect coding bootcamp for me. First i didnt expect to cover so much in such a short time, the instructor is awesome! he is knowledgable, patient, and very passionate about programming. Second the bootcamp located on a beautiful... Read More and simple island right off the ocean. the class size was a little smaller, for someone like me with no technical background, it was great to have time to understand the subject. The best part was the time spent after coding for 8 hours, you can grab a beer, play pool, take in the surroundings, new culture, and bonding with the group, you all came for a common goal. you learn from each other.
