LEARN HOW TO CODE IN JUST 2 WEEKS!

Find out why students are saying this is the best Ruby course they’ve ever taken!

* Latest Update: January, 16th 2016

Many people who try to switch to coding as a career don’t make it. And you want to know the number 1 reason employers tell me? Its because they don’t understand the basics.

You can become a coder. While it may seem like a totally foreign language, once you understand some of the underlying principles its actually quite easy – and fun!

Ruby is a fantastically powerful language used by startups and top companies like Airbnb and Twitter. And Unlike languages like Java, C# or Swift, it is relatively easy to learn. But let me tell you: as someone who has worked for years as a professional programmer and hired dozens of coders myself, understanding the basics is critical.

My Newbie to Ruby course if the first part of a series on becoming a professional programmer. It lays the foundations for web development using Ruby on Rails and will set you on a life changing career path. If you try to do Rails without knowing Ruby you will most likely fail.

Understanding Through Exercises & Drills

The course follows a simple pattern. I introduce a concept, give you an exercise and then go through the exercise in detail so that you can solidify your understanding. I also have dozens of additional drills with solutions to help you hone your skills.

Complete in 2 weeks

The course is broken up into 12 sections and you should be able to get through 1 section per evening if you’re doing this part time. So all up you’ll need about 2 weeks.

The Course will Cover

Methods

Predicates and Conditionals

Looping

Input and Output

Objects and Classes

Arrays, Hashes and other Data Structures

Math and much more

Get your coding career off to a flying start with my Newbie to Ruby course.

There has never been a better time to switch your career!
