RATING 4.94
The instructors are just the right amount of helpful - they allow you to build on your problem solving skills and work things out for yourself, while still being there to support you.
CodeOp is so much more than a school. It is an international community of professional and dedicated people who root for each other and watch each other grow.
Overall experience: 9/10. I recommend CodeOp specially given that it is inclusive and non ageist! I was embraced as a 45 year old, renaissance woman, mother of three. I thrived and I am better for it. ...you are never too old!
The quality of course content is excellent and well-coordinated, the entire CodeOp community is very friendly and helpful; the communication and feedback between the learners, instructors and alumni is timely and excellent!
