For those of us who didn't grow up coding at age 7, this is golden!!!! The amount of terrible CS teachers out there would amaze you!! I mean "blow your mind away" amaze you. I almost gave up CS because of my absolutely terrible professors. I couldn't even understand simple Classes and object!!! It was that bad!!! Luckily, since I really wanted to learn, I had to seek alternate resources. I was fortunate to stumble on Stanford's Cs106a taught by Mehran Sahami and it changed my life forever. That man is the gold standard for what a teacher should be. He broke down complex ideas and made them look so simple. Since then, I use a combination of different resources to learn said "difficult concepts". Recursion, got it...pointers, got it too. I have used Standford courses, Berkeley course, udemy, Udacity, Coursera and even youtube to learn. These sites have some really good teachers. I have since come to understand that CS is really not that difficult. All is takes is a willingness to learn and a good resource to learn from. |
