What I was looking for was a way to learn all the practical skills I needed in the most immersive, efficient way possible. That’s when I discovered Le Wagon, and I’m still amazed at what we were able to learn in only 9 weeks. The structure of the curriculum is extremely detailed and to complement the curriculum, at Le Wagon I experienced some of the best teachers I’ve ever met in my life. Their ability to communicate with us was excellent and I was extremely pleased by their professionalism and passion for teaching. Looking back I enjoyed “Projects Weeks” the most, which is when we created a brand new web application from scratch. I’m sure that the experience we gained during Projects Weeks will come in handy when we get jobs as Software Developers. Given how fast paced the bootcamp is, I was very grateful that Le Wagon always offers lifetime access to their custom-built learning platform, known as “Kitt”. Kitt has all the learning resources we used during the bootcamp, including recorded lectures and all the coding challenges we completed. Working with the nice people at my batch made the whole experience so much better. Once you graduate, being part of a community meant that I could message everyone on Slack to ask how they are doing, share ideas, and discuss tips and tricks to get a job in tech. When a member of our batch gets a job, that’s super cool and its exciting for all of us, because we are then reminded that we might be next! “Career week” was very helpful and I really enjoyed hearing first-hand tips and tricks from very successful startups in Istanbul’s ecosystem. Speaking to professionals in the tech industry who regularly hire software developers helped me to prepare, because I felt like I was already familiar with what to expect. Looking back, I really believe that Le Wagon teaches you everything you need to know and reflects the skills that are in demand right now. I made the right choice! Personally, I am most grateful to Le Wagon for teaching me that learning the skills you need to become a Software Developer was within reach. Most importantly, thanks to Le Wagon, I’m convinced that becoming a Software Developer is exactly what I want… Oh, and I really enjoyed Friday conversations – covering every topic! - and our table tennis battles! :) |
