The feedback I received was incredibly helpful in my learning process I feel because Berk went through my code and listed the minor issues I had that could help clean up my work and he also did an excellent job in answering the questions I had about coding.
After seeing the video response I definitely feel more confident in asking for help when I need it because just this one single question I had answered for me helped me visualize how to make my next project better.

The quality and value of Freemote are A++
I started the Freemote exactly two weeks ago today (Nov 1). There are way too many positives to mention in a short review, so I'll just pick a few.
First, the people. Aaron and Jan are the instructors, and I've had contact with two of the mentors, Kaido and Berk. They. Are. All. Fantastic! Each one of them. Caring, knowledgeable, and to the point. I've also benefited from reading other students' comments and responses. One of the best things about Freemote, I think, is that support continues beyond the end of the 7 week curriculum!
Second, the content. I'm part way through week 2 (Shopify), and the lessons so far are focused and very information dense. As such, the videos are worth watching multiple times. But the best part about the the HTML/CSS section is my growing sense of confidence as I work through the exercises and projects!
Third, the premise. The point is to get students start earning within weeks of the program. So that means not teaching everything there is to know about a certain topic, but what a developer needs to know to bring value to the client. This efficiency is very attractive to me, and necessary given my current life circumstances. I am not quite at the freelancing stage yet, but I can see how Freemote will deliver!

Outstanding class projects!
Shalom howdy how.
I am new to FreeMote but what I can tell you is this.
The course curriculum is outstanding so far. Their community support is excellent and they really seem to care about everyone freelancing or obtaining a job as a career. The price is very steep next to Skillshare and Udemy, but drastically less expensive than a University or certain other boot-camp programs. If it pays off, it will be well worth it many thousands of times over!
The learning is great so far!

week 1 done... 5stars
Just finished a week 1 of the course and the overall experience was amazing. First I was hesitant with paying $1500 for a course, but so far it is definitely money well spent... Will update the rating once I'm done with the bootcamp

I am a Freemote student
I am a Freemote student. In the beginning I was hesitating to take this bootcamp and was planning to take other expensive bootcamps. Now I am sure for 100% that I made the best decision. In Freemote you get great support which is the most important thing. A lot of challenging projects which give you great experience. I'm very grateful to Aron Kaido and Berk.

Way past my expectations
I have been learning to code on and off for fun for the past couple of years. It wasn't till recently I had a light bulb moment and realized that I could do this as a career. I started self study pretty diligently in September and after some research I stumbled on Freemote. I loved the idea that you can earn while you learn, as I best under pressure and hands on experience for things to become engrained. The price point is great compared to other bootcamps, which did discourage me from diving in sooner. I work full time with a family and 2 kiddos so taking 3-6 months off for 8 hours days wasn't going to happen anytime soon. The model Freemote built is great and I'm able to work at my own pace with lifetime access which is huge.
They also offer webinar meet ups on Saturday's which are cool to be a part of and listen to others further on in the program. Jan does a great job keeping people engaged and explains topics very clearly.
I feel like the curriculum is laid out efficiently and I loved how up front they are about realistic expectations. You need to put the work in to be successful. One of the things that blew me away was the custom video feedback. I expected it to be 1-2 minutes long at most but was over 10 minutes, answering all my questions about code and professional concepts. It was awesome to get feedback so quickly after sending a project in, and the feedback was well delivered and insanely helpful to let me know how I was doing thus far. Thank you Berk! If you are serious about learning to code, Freemote is a great community to be apart of.

Informative, Engaging, and Transformative
After spending years on a career path that I thought I loved, I found myself in a job that had a gaslighting, verbally abusive boss with no prospects of moving forward or to a different position. I began a long process of teaching myself coding since I couldn’t afford one of those pricey bootcamps.
A Freemote ad came up on Instagram after one hard day at work and a disappointing night trying to learn basic JavaScript. The way in which Aaron presented the course in the promotional video was very engaging. Looking into more of the details of the program the aspects that stood out to me were:
✅ Self-paced program with video walkthroughs of
concepts
✅ Coding languages of HTML, CSS, Javascript, and
Liquid
✅ Specialization in ShopifyCareer development with
direct freelancing and UpWork options
✅ Facebook group for support
✅ Videos and content constantly updated with
lifelong access to site
✅ Price was affordable
The way that Aaron and Jan teach the content is exactly what I needed. They teach the concepts, provide exercises, strategies to complete exercises, and then a walkthrough of how the exercise could be completed.
This course has allowed me to leave my awful job and land clients through direct freelancing and through UpWork. The course has transformed my work life and has allowed me to do something that I really enjoy doing with the freedom to spend time with my family.

Highly recommended!
I have always had an interest in coding but knew nothing about it. I like how they keep it as simple as possible. Being a mom of 3 this is the best way for me so I can focus on stuff I will use and need without the unnecessary stuff dragging me down. I’m grateful for this as an option to start a new career path. I’m almost done with my first week. It’s taken me a little longer then I expected to get the understanding of the basics but now I feel I have a better grip on it. The videos are very helpful and I’m very appreciative of the feedback videos from questions I have. I also like that there is a Facebook group to go to for any questions and answers. I have found that very helpful as well. The Freemote family is awesome and am glad I have a chance to learn and grow from their instruction.
