| | Charlotte Moche | I can't say enough good things about my experience at Actualize! I come from a fine arts background, and I was a bit nervous about shifting careers. I chose Actualize because it was geared towards beginners, and I believe that holds true to my experience. I felt very comfortable from beginning to end with the pacing, support, and general energy of the course. My instructor was Dani Zaghian, and she was always enthusiastic, helpful, and very clearly passionate about her job and the advancement of the students. She was great at pushing each of us based on where we were at skill-wise, and she took particular notice of where we had strengths to play up. I would highly recommend Actualize to anyone interested in learning more about web development, whether you have experience or not. Thank you for an amazing couple of months! I feel confident in where I am headed because of the program. |
| | Sarah Robinson | I just graduated from my cohort today and I can honestly say enrolling with Actualize has been the best learning experience I've ever had. My previous "traditional college experience" does not compare at all to everything you'll get out of this bootcamp. I've absorbed so much knowledge, not just in tech but also valuable life lessons that I will take with me. I was extremely intimidated upon the first day of class, but my lead instructor (THANK YOU DANI), T.A.'s, and classmates created such a safe environment for all of us to feel comfortable and to accept that it is OKAY to not know everything or anything at all. I came into this with zero experience and now just a few months later I've built a functioning website on my own! Now we're entering the technical interviewing program which will help hone our interviewing skills and get us even more prepared to land a job in the field. Overall ACTUALIZE ROCKS! If you're thinking about applying, DO IT you will not regret it. |
| | Theodore Kim | Actualize is an incredibly well thought out web development bootcamp, and I feel honored to have been able to attend the course. Having spent about 20 years of my life in education, and having been an educator myself from a family of educators, I can confidently say this school is one of the best experiences that I've had in my life. The instructors and founder truly care about the students and believe in the course that they are teaching. The course is well organized, the curriculum is well curated for learning from ground zero, and the homework is great for deliberate practice. When I selected actualize, I was ready to be a fly on the wall and learn by exposure, but instructor took the extra mile and helped me specifically with my deficiencies, especially in the area of explaining and talking code. This program is a gem, and if you're looking for an education first experience, I would highly recommend you take a deeper look. |
