How do you teach? As an instructor at a school or tutoring on the side?
1 comments

I work with my local library to hold coding office hours

(Should be very easy to set up, they really want to become more technically savvy but the only volunteers they could find is instructors trying to teach microsoft word)

I have my own curriculum that I've built over the years and the students ultimately end up building a product that they launch (hopefully). This year I got to teach 20 students and so far 14 have gotten full time jobs as software engineers. Fortunately, students who got jobs are all doing well at their jobs so its pretty easy to refer people in.

After the remaining 6 students get a full time job, I plan to open source my curriculum that students have helped polish over the years. You can find the gist of it at c0d3.com

This looks awesome! Any way I can get an invite code?
