General AssemblyReviews of generalassemb.ly

I really enjoyed studying with general assembly. I am desperate to switch my career into IT. But I didn’t get any internships in python language. If you help me to find out something for me any volunteer work or internships. I am so happy to work on it.

Culture is open and safe I love general assembly's culture that they've developed over the years. Students feel safe to learn, explore and ask lots of questions. The environment is all about collaboration and being active in learning.

The instructor was very knowledgeable and engaged the class.

It was a good learning experience. Our teacher was Jack Whittle

Great tutors, lessons where well structured and comprehensible. Length of the course was ideal.

My instructors were extremely helpful and approachable, which makes it so easy to engage with the materials and learn. I cannot speak more highly of this course and my instructors. The skills that I have learned have helped me look at data in a different way and to use Excel, Tableau, and SQL effectively. I also think the course has given me an approach to data that I have applied to other tools like Power BI. While these tools are not the same, I can look at data, know what needs to be done, and understand how to display it effectively.

I think that the whole experience has really been refined over the years, and it really shows. The tech stack used to teach the students (Github Repos, Slack, Zoom) has been organized and well planned, allowing the students to really focus on learning. The teachers are some of the most relatable people, but they are experts in their knowledge of the coding concepts necessary to start coding. I feel that after leaving this bootcamp for Software Engineering (while that market has been flooded with recent layoffs), I feel thoroughly equipped knowing the basics of web development and SWE, and feel that I have a solid foundation to go and chase bigger and better projects with the skills I've obtained in bootcamp.

The materials taught are highly relevant and currently applied in the industry, specifically in Singapore. While the learning here has its limitations, it provides a solid foundation for further exploration as you enter the industry. Beyond knowledge, the instructors, career coaches, and staff are exceptionally supportive. They are approachable and eager to assist students. Given the nature of the bootcamp, the overall environment is conducive to learning, with everyone sharing the common goal of learning. It's certainly a distinctive educational experience compared to traditional schooling. Certainly, don't anticipate spoon-fed education; there are instances where you genuinely need to stretch yourself and delve deeper.
