Quotes from previous class:
I loved it! As someone who didn't even know what HTML, CSS, or JavaScript really even meant to begin with, this was an awesome intro to the subjects & got me more interested in coding!
I learned a lot. I would not have been able to tell you 2 days ago what the aforementioned terms were. Thank you for making me more knowledgeable!
I thought the event ran smoothly & was a big success. I told all my friends about it & I'm very grateful for the opportunity to learn another skill & open the door to possibly new career paths. Thank you!!
