I don't feel any regret taking this course because after taking Python bootcamp for almost a month, I feel confident in Python. I was not sure how it would be and how they will teach. But after joining the Nucamp Bootcamp, it clear my every doubt. The course design of Nucamp; every week, new topics, sufficient exercise, quiz and code challenge makes more interesting and effective. Our Python tutor Ryan seems to have sufficient knowledge in Python. He is very helpful, not only during the week days but also during holidays, easy to teach and we could get feedback instantly. In addition to this, I like the way class get divided into small group so that we can interact with each other, teach and learn. I found every fellow friend to be friendly and helpful. After the completion of this course, I am planning to take Web Development Fundamental.- Dahiana LopezTechnical Support Lead • StudentJan 21, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
NuCamp Review
I initially enrolled into a Nucamp after watching a YouTube video of students reviewing their experience. I ended up watching an interview done with the creator of NuCamp and really liked his responses, so I decided to look into the course curriculum as well as pricing. The pricing really sold me since this course involved LIVE sessions each week and a coding project submitted to eventually display to employers.

I ended up watching an interview done with the creator of NuCamp and really liked his responses, so I decided to look into the course curriculum as well as pricing. The pricing really sold me since this course involved LIVE sessions each week and a coding project submitted to eventually display to employers. So far the instructor Ryan has taught us Python and this is the furthest I have gotten with coding honestly. He was really helpful in explaining what type of roles we may qualify for upon completion and how to display work to potential employers. I am trying to shift my career from IT support into Data Analysis or Data Science role upon completion of this course. - Taylor ThomasMarketing Associate • Student • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • OnlineJan 16, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Challenging, Helpful, Rewarding
I enrolled in Nucamp after seeing someone I know go from minimum wage to making a starting salary of $70k after taking the fullstack course. I think it was the right decision and I learned some fundamentals that would have been difficult to research on my own. Now I feel equipped to continue learning and diving deeper into building my own projects.

It was Great!
Great course, helpful instructors and good coursework! I took the intro to web dev class and finished it feeling very satisfied and eager to continue my programming venture! I just wish the answers to the bonus challenges were posted somewhere. I plan on taking the back end dev class as well!

Exceeded expectations!
What brought me to Nucamp was the flexibility and the affordability. Any question from the time I hadn't signed up yet till now, (4 weeks in) has been answered in a timely manner and everyone who pointed me in the right direction was professional and respectful. The reason why I would recommend this school to anyone is because the instructors make the lectures and assignments clear to understand and following along is actually do-able within the week. I appreciate how well thought out...What brought me to Nucamp was the flexibility and the affordability. Any question from the time I hadn't signed up yet till now, (4 weeks in) has been answered in a timely manner and everyone who pointed me in the right direction was professional and respectful. The reason why I would recommend this school to anyone is because the instructors make the lectures and assignments clear to understand and following along is actually do-able within the week. I appreciate how well thought out this program is. I know I made the right decision joining Nucamp. I signed up for the full stack 11 month program and I plan to stay the course after seeing how the first month turned out.
The lessons were videos, there were plenty of recourses provided pointing students in the right direction to answer the challenge questions provided. Which was fun because I was learning tons while researching and not going into rabbit holes! Another thing I was happy about and made my learning fun was the powerpoint slides that really helped a lot to use as quick references. A new experience for me was using codepen and at first I didn't understand it but after using it and forking the challenges in there. I had a lot of fun and see it's worth using it. Also, the solutions on some of the more complex challenge questions were helpful because I didn't feel stuck for long.
I appreciate my instructor keeping in touch throughout the week and checking in on us for questions. He was very helpful in the Saturday meetings because he broke things down to where I could understand it and see it. What I thought was really cool was that when anyone would ask a question, he was patient in answering and didn't judge or make student feel silly for asking. He had clear powerpoint presentations and also gave clear directions of what should be expected. I think the program is amazing because it allows the instructor to give feedback on our assignments we submit and I feel like that's really important so I learn from my mistakes and grow from them. Something else that was cool was that once we submit our assignments, we can learn from other student's code. That is really cool and motivating to code and learn.
Other pros are that I applied through ascent which made my student loan experience easy. I applied for a scholarship and Nucamp also offers bonus discounts which I find wonderful. Key words, The lessons were all in a good sequence and not scattered. The videos were short and easy to code along with.
I have very little coding background and I learned so much in this month alone. I am looking forward to the rest of the year and learn as much as I can and to code as much as possible with what I have learned and will be learning. For how well structured this program is, the CEO and the instructors really care about the students moving forward in the coding world. Thank you Nucamp for having such a great program!

An Excellent Investment
I found Nucamp just browsing thru a Google search, looking for someway to learn how become a Software Engineer or Web Developer.
I am so glad I took a chance with Nucamp. I have learned so much in such a short period of time. I will continue to learn with Nucamp because I believe Nucamp has demonstrated the ability to effectively and adaquately equip me with the skills I will need to succeed. - Brianna OdomStudent • Los AngelesJan 09, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
It was a great experience to help me advance in basic web dev skills
It was awesome. It was a good amount of work but you set your own schedule, so you can make it work with a full time job. A lot of people in the bootcamp had one. Also fit for all learning levels. I had coding experience but those who didn't were crushing it.

What i aspire to achieve after this bootcamp is to be able to get a mainland remote job where im able to work from home more. Since the tech industry is completely new to me and it is a bit of a challenge. I can wait to finish this boot camp and see what the future holds. I highly recommend this bootcamp for people who work alot and need a boot camp that fit around there scheule. - Doug AltermattStudent • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • WashingtonDec 23, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Nucamp was a great learning experience for me. I went in nervous about React and ended up loving it! The instructors are amazing to work with and go the extra step to help understand. Now that close to graduation I will be seeking employment in the React or React Native field.

NuCamp is Great!
NuCamp is great! Having a dedicated instructor far surpasses learning on your own. The information is thourough, and I feel that I have learned more with NuCamp in a small amount of time, than I could of on my own. Highly recommended. So far I have been learning backend programming, and I look forward to learning more! - Vince MullerProject Manager • Student • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Dec 17, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Great program, instructors and price!
I chose Nucamp because of the cost and the ability to do the class on-demand. I work full time throughout the week and am a new father to a 9 month old...therefore, my available time each day is never in a set window.
I really enjoy the format and instructors from Nucamp and would highly recommend checking them out if you are interested in getting into software development. - Hui ZhengStudent • Los AngelesDec 04, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

The video lectures that helped us gain more knowledge were great, everything was explained clearly in terms of what we had to learn. Our instructor professor Gagnon was an excellent teacher, he would devise his own code examples to illustrate how the code we had learned from that week actually work during the Saturday lectures. He also provided us lot of great helpful additional resources beyond what the course covers. Also, it was easy to reach out to him for help if we were stumped with any portion of our code. Regarding the coding exercises, some of them were a bit difficult since we may not fully understand parts of the code also there were some incorporated codes that we weren't too familiar with since we hadn't learned them yet. So far, we just followed alone step by step. Nevertheless, it is good to have these coding exercises given to us for extra future practice after completion of this web fundamentals bootcamp.
