00:00:00,570 --> 00:00:01,140
Hey there.

2
00:00:01,170 --> 00:00:02,520
Welcome to the next video.

3
00:00:02,610 --> 00:00:08,010
So in this video, all I'd really like to do is spend a couple of seconds introducing myself as well

4
00:00:08,010 --> 00:00:09,510
as introducing blue.

5
00:00:09,540 --> 00:00:13,080
This is our course to you'll see here, pop up a couple of times in the course.

6
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,270
Hopefully you don't have a problem with cats.

7
00:00:16,170 --> 00:00:22,140
Anyways, so my background really is that I've been teaching people to program in person for the last

8
00:00:22,140 --> 00:00:23,010
five or so years.

9
00:00:23,010 --> 00:00:27,870
I've been teaching web development bootcamps in the San Francisco Bay Area pretty much nonstop.

10
00:00:28,170 --> 00:00:32,910
So if you're not familiar with bootcamps, web development camps, that is the way that they typically

11
00:00:32,910 --> 00:00:37,860
work, is that there are 3 to 6 month long programs where students basically commit their lives for

12
00:00:37,890 --> 00:00:41,030
that duration to learning to code and nothing else.

13
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:42,900
It's a very, very intense program.

14
00:00:42,900 --> 00:00:47,250
We take students who have zero programming experience all the way up to the point where they get web

15
00:00:47,250 --> 00:00:48,180
developer jobs.

16
00:00:48,390 --> 00:00:49,620
So really rewarding work.

17
00:00:49,620 --> 00:00:55,140
I fell in love with teaching five or so years ago, and recently I decided to try my hand at taking

18
00:00:55,140 --> 00:00:58,620
my in-classroom approach and trying to bring it online.

19
00:00:58,620 --> 00:01:00,300
So this is my second course.

20
00:01:00,300 --> 00:01:02,760
And this course, as you know, is on my SCL.

21
00:01:02,790 --> 00:01:06,540
It's kind of the next logical step to teach online.

22
00:01:06,540 --> 00:01:08,730
So I used to teach this in person as well.

23
00:01:08,730 --> 00:01:12,120
I'm now trying to take my curriculum and bring it to the classroom online.

24
00:01:12,300 --> 00:01:14,250
All right, So that's enough about myself.

25
00:01:14,250 --> 00:01:18,270
If you do have any questions, if you're curious or you're actually interested in in-person bootcamps,

26
00:01:18,270 --> 00:01:19,170
you have questions.

27
00:01:19,170 --> 00:01:19,740
Absolutely.

28
00:01:19,740 --> 00:01:20,580
Reach out to me.

29
00:01:20,580 --> 00:01:23,460
Send me a message or post a question on the discussion boards.

30
00:01:23,550 --> 00:01:24,150
All right.

31
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:25,410
I'll see you in the next video.
