During my studies and early years of my career, I’ve noticed many area of improvement which could easily be solved by providing the right digital tool. That’s why I’ve always wanted to learn coding ! I wanted to get a set of technical skills which will allow me to test my ideas and provide the first step towards a complete solution to a given problem. Attending Le Wagon was for me the best way to achieve this goal ! Within 9 weeks I’ve learned the basis of Object Oriented Programmation and I am now able to build strong and powerful websites ! Today I am working as a freelance developper, helping entrepreneurs transform their idea into strong web project. I also work on my personal ideas developing and testing in order to create my own business. Le Wagon gave me the ability to change my life by learning to code and by discovering a large and benevolent community always willing to help me achieve each challenge I face in this new life !- AnonymousIT support engineer • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • TokyoMay 06, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Le Wagon has some very talented teachers who guided me every step of the way, and who really complemented the incredibly practical curriculum that it offered.
My favourite part was probably the projects in teams, which introduced a whole new level to my learning. Doing version control on GitHub is not easy. Thankfully, Le Wagon understands that, hence having two projects in teams – one where you can learn from your mistakes, and the final one where you still make mistakes, but at least know how to solve them as a team.
Le Wagon changed the way I view computer programming. It demystified many concepts I previously couldn't dare touching, such as building my own API. It created a lasting mindset that I am using to keep learning and building after the course.
Lastly, something that I think they have undersold, is their community. The Le Wagon community is genuinely a community. Every time you get stuck, have an idea, or seek new opportunities, you can count on it, and that's priceless. - AnonymousEntrepreneur • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • Rio de JaneiroApr 10, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I did Le Wagon in Montreal from October to December 2019.First impression, that got reinforced during all the bootcamp, is that every teacher and person working at Le Wagon is really here to accompany us and make our experience as beneficial as possible.Everyone is really patient and is willing to spend time with us, giving us useful tips so we get good practices while learning web development.The program is well-thought, so we understand how every technical aspect of building a web application relates to each other. Especially that the bootcamp is product-oriented, as we have to develop a web application from scratch at the end of the program, to put into practice everything that we learnt. It felt really rewarding :)In short, I recommend! - AnonymousGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ShanghaiJan 08, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

The most intense but richest learning period of my life
The experience at Le Wagon was really fantastic! First of all, I was finally able to acquire skills that I had been aiming for for a very long time, but first I had to finalize my studies to enable me to follow this training. Le Wagon allowed me to remember that I really enjoyed creating things and putting my creativity on paper. Indeed, my studies and the different internships or jobs behind them had taken me away from all the creative aspect that the web could represent. I also had...
The experience at Le Wagon was really fantastic! First of all, I was finally able to acquire skills that I had been aiming for for a very long time, but first I had to finalize my studies to enable me to follow this training. Le Wagon allowed me to remember that I really enjoyed creating things and putting my creativity on paper. Indeed, my studies and the different internships or jobs behind them had taken me away from all the creative aspect that the web could represent. I also had to question my skills and face frustrations but also moments of happiness! Coding is a discipline in its own right and the learning and outcomes can be far from what I could have done before! It was a real challenge and I have no regrets about having followed this training that I wanted to start since 2017 !

Even better than expected
Until not so long ago, I used to be a journalist. After a few years working in that field, I decided to take some time for myself and travelled around the world.
That gap year made me realise that I wanted to shift my professional focus. After exploring different options I started to believe that learning to code was part of the solution to find a path that would lead me to a new career.

Even though the bootcamp was really intense and that I've learned a lot, now that I've finished Le Wagon I've realised this was only the beginning. Being a developper means I will have to keep on learning new things all the time (which is really exciting and scary at the same time!).
All that I can say is that I am grateful for what that experience brought me on so many levels and today I am more convinced than ever that I want to become a developper. - AnonymousSoftware Engineer - Python | Django • Graduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • LondonOct 02, 2019Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Landed a job 3 weeks after graduating from Le Wagon
After university, I had a stint in a startup where I got a taste of programming in Java. Following that, my career took off and I joined global consulting companies. My career pivoted towards product management and the more commercial sides of technology. As the years went by, I found myself further and further away from coding. I had the pleasure of managing and working with developers, but I always felt that they got to do the fun part of projects - building them !

My career pivoted towards product management and the more commercial sides of technology. As the years went by, I found myself further and further away from coding. I had the pleasure of managing and working with developers, but I always felt that they got to do the fun part of projects - building them !
Half a year ago I started to code again and built some projects in Javascript. This really ignited my love for coding and I decided to switch careers to become a developer. I knew I would have to start my career all over again, but I felt it was worth it as I could spend the rest of my life doing something I enjoyed. It was lonely to code alone and I often questioned the quality of my code. To learn best practices, industrial standards and work with other developers, I decided to enrol at Le Wagon.
At Le Wagon, I felt like a knight in training. Everyday we were given pedagogical challenges to shape our understanding of object orientated programming. Ruby was a new language to me, but after a few weeks I was surprised at my own fluency. I trusted the process and let Le Wagon carry me through databases, front end, ruby on rails, and then onto independent projects. The last few weeks of the course, I worked in a team of four to build two web applications. It was challenging to work with others, but after a day of Github chaos, it all fell into place. In our final project we built an app that ‘gamified’ eco-challenges (i.e. plastic free, ride a bike, etc) and there were features such as collecting points, competing with friends and tracking your progress. It was a fun and challenging project to build, and we’re incredibly proud of what we have achieved.
The best thing about the experience at Le Wagon is definitely the Teachers and TA Team. Everyday on the course, they were there to rescue us, guide us and teach us how to write clean code. They were truly ruby and javascript ninjas and the speed at which they could understand our problems and debug was impressive. Without them, I would not be where I am today - with a job as a software engineer working with the Python stack !To anyone who is looking for a career change, wants a challenge as well as seeking guidance, I recommend enrolling at Le Wagon. It is one of the best decisions I made in my life and the knowledge and community support I received was invaluable to my success. - AnonymousGraduate • Web Development Bootcamp - Full-time • ShanghaiSep 29, 2019Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
