Awesome course so far!
Short version: This course gives you video trainings, full on coding tests, and personalized code reviews. Worth way, way more than I paid honestly. Long version: I'm a software product manager, so I work with two teams of back-end and front-end devs everyday. I've been wanting to increase my technical expertise, but have not been able to find a course that really fits my needs. I have tried other somewhat free courses that are a lot of reading and then at the end of the section they will have some fill in the blanks, but those weren't hands on enough, and I felt like I wasn't learning anything. I got bored trying out two of those and took a break for about a year. About 3 months ago I was talking with my wife, telling her yet again how I just felt I needed to bite the bullet and try a night-class bootcamp here in Utah. I was ready to pay the $15k for the course and just about paid the deposit, but then I ran across this ad for Freemote. I was pretty skeptical so I looked up Aaron's Youtube channel to see if he was legitimate and his videos were really good. I took a call with one of the other Freemote employees and he helped me get signed up. I can honestly say this course is WAY more than I expected. The level of detail that Aaron goes into is awesome, yet he explains it in really simple terms. I did not expect that there would be actual coding assignments and quizzes. I just assumed it would be an information dump, and you would have to kind of create your own projects to practice with. The course provides assignments, then afterward you submit the assignment/project and a Freemote developer reviews it and sends you back a personalized video. I just finished my first project, and the review was 13 mins long. It answered a ton of questions I had about things I just couldn't figure out. This course is honestly worth probably 10x what I paid for it, so thank you, Freemote, for keeping it so affordable! Best part about it all is that it's completely at your own pace, so I didn't have to commit to night school.
