I enjoyed working with coding dojo

I enjoyed working with other students, and instructors learning many things along the way. It's not easy, but worth it, after putting in so much time and effort.

The Best

This program has helped me tremendously. I previously had a background with programming, but never as in depth as this. I took the python stack and the part time program is really good for those with a family or a full-time job already.

Even the part time is Very fast paced

Even the part time is Very fast paced. They say to plan on 20-30 hours per week of coding and homework and this is sometimes conservative if you are not familiar with the language(s) and stack(s) ahead of time. The method of instruction is effective, it builds upon itself over time with increasingly difficult concepts. The only down side is that sometimes you will learn a difficult concept and then you won't touch it again to that depth for a bit, so it's hard to internalize a few things right off the bat. A little more repetition would be nice, but it would come at the price of either an unreasonable amount of work per week or a longer program. All-in-all it has been a very effective program and I feel like I have a basic understanding of a day-to-day developer routine, at least much more than I did prior!

Pretty good experience

Pretty good experience, the content and schedule is fast pace but they try hard to make sure no one was left behind. The only suggestion I would give to Coding Dojo is that I hope by the end of the stack there can be some extra time for student to do a personal project so that we can have more on the resume

Pace is a litter bit behind learning platform. For MERN, user authentication /websoket should be taught before belt exam.

One amazing learning experience

I have had one heck of an amazing experience with the Coding Dojo. I have learned so much so quickly that I never would have been able to do on my own this incredibly fast. The platform for learning is amazing they are able to stack each piece that you learn on top of the last and all the staff and the students are super helpful and keep you moving when you get stuck. I have used other learning platforms to some success but nothing at this rate of speed and with the repetition that doesn't feel like repetition is amazing. It really works too make things stick.

I've completed my first full stack the Python stack and I still have two more stacks to go because I signed up for the long haul 3 stack program. I know that when I'm done I'll be fully prepared for whatever is thrown my way.

Coding Dojo was a wonderful experience from start to present! Instructors and assistants go above and beyond to see you succeed. I especially love the life time career services you get with being an alumni as well as the continued opportunities for certification! However, please continue to work on the learning platform since it was difficult to understand solution walk through a at times. Other than that, I would highly recommend anyone looking to jump start their tech career to attend!

All-star teachers, platform leaves much to be desired

to break down my rating I would say the platform itself and the curriculum on it probably deserve about a three out of five stars, but my instructor and the Java TAs all deserve five out of five stars bringing the average up to four out of five.

My time at the Dojo

My experience attending Coding Dojo was honestly fantastic. Before I even registered I was given all the information I requested and knew exactly what I was getting into. Once I signed up and the classes started rolling it was apparent that everyone at the Dojo truly cared about the students, their experience, and the knowledge we were all there to gain. The Instructors were phenomenal, professional, and very patient. Along with class instruction, Coding Dojo provides an online learning platform that really helps guide your learning. The learning platform provides reading, videos, and assignments that all build on each other. The platform, along with help and guidance from the instructors, really helped sink in everything I had learned at the Dojo. Now it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows every day. There were some days that were extremely more challenging than others but that comes with the experience you sign up for. Coding boot camps are meant to be tough and they teach you an abundance of knowledge in a very short time. Coding Dojo has been 1 of 3 coding boot camps I attended and I can honestly say Coding Dojo completely outshines the other 2 by a huge margin. Not all boot camps are made the same and for this reason, I will always be grateful for my time at Coding Dojo. For anyone looking for a start on the path to a job in the software/technology field then this is definitely the place to start.

Positive Representation, Great Experience

I'm fortunate to have tried several coding bootcamps during their "free trial" periods before I chose the one I would attend in full. Coding Dojo stood out to me because of their true and visible commitment to representation in the workplace, the welcoming staff, and the structure of their course. If you're considering a coding bootcamp and want a blend of live lecture and independent work, the flex program is great (especially if you still need to work a full time job). I could not be more pleased with my experience.

Online Part Time Accelerated Course Review

I was apart of the online part-time accelerated python full stack course and it was overall a great experience! I came into Coding Dojo without any prior experience and left with the ability to build my own website! My cohort, instructors and TA's were a great help and guided me to accomplish a lot. The learning platform was awesome and easy to navigate. I wish I stumbled upon coding dojo sooner. On to the next challenge!

After hearing about the program from an…

After heading about the program from an old friend, I decided to jump onboard, and haven't looked back! I wound up taking two stacks at first and have now added the third. It was a steep learning curve at first, but going through the motions and really taking the time to learn proved to be beneficial. Definitely would recommend this school to anyone looking to get a second chance at a career or a new beginner.
