"What if I already know how to code or I find this class too slow / boring?"

    • There's always something to do or try. This is your opportunity to be a geek or to learn new skills. As a starter, I highly recommend tutorials on SoloLearn or trying some of my challenges. There will be more opportunities as we go through the course.

    • With a Google account, you can learn and code anything you want and there are endless tutorials online. Just make sure you are learning and not just copying.
