Moringa School

After doing one year of university, 'learning' computer science and never actually coding, I decided to leave and look for another option because there had to be one. I found Moringa and since I joined I have never looked back. The course is short and... Read More intense!! In the end it is worth it cause in one month of Moringa, I coded more than I did in 6 months of university. I am entirely grateful to the school for allowing me to be the coder I am now!

Hello I’m Yonko .A poet,photographer and programmer. Like most people I first learnt how to code online however I felt like there was something missing . I felt like I wasn’t getting all there is to learn about coding (ironic considering I was taking... Read More free courses) then I discovered Moringa school, now if your like most people, when you hear the word school and you immediately remember your dreadful days in school and are happy that they are gone. Things are a little different at Moringa school .The first part being that it’s not like most schools. Now what do I mean?
You see in Moringa school, we have no teachers, now just wait before you make any assumptions.
What I mean is that the students are put in a classroom whereby there is no teacher. A model called a flipped classroom whereby the Learner learns by themselves. Ok let me break it down for you. The curriculum is already developed and hosted online. It accommodates every type of learner so you don’t have to worry about getting lost or not understanding. The learners are divided into pairs where they carry it pair programming. When they do this they get used to working with others well and thus they will be compatible in the work place. There are technical mentors present to help the students at all times Every morning the previous day’s work is reviewed before doing the current days work. The school itself takes feedback from Its students regularly to ensure they are getting the best. In a nutshell, Moringa School is a dream come true.A coding environment that simulates the work place and still manages to make everyone feel at home.So if you’ve been looking for place to learn how to code , stop the search and come to Moringa School and make a difference in the world through coding.

8/10 was my initial rating of Moringa School the first few weeks I was there. Why? Because part of me was curious as to what other institutions had to offer. Well this completely changed to a SOLID 10/10 after having interacted with Developers from other... Read More institutions on a competitive level. With a team of other Developers from Moringa School, we took part in the NASA Space APP Challenge 2017 and from our performance I for the first time fully understood why Moringa School is a a world-class Software Developer accelerator. Having been in Moringa School for just 3 months we were able to put to play skills that we had gained within this short period of time and we won the Local People's Choice Award. I am currently working as a Junior Software Developer; a position I secured immediately after graduating from Moringa School. The transition from school to the job environment for me was very fluid. Currently I am using a new framework thus learning on the job and this brings me to the one priceless skill that is emphasized on at Moringa School; Learning to learn. As you apply to Moringa School get excited for the code intensive environment and the vast soft skills you will be empowered with lastly as a Developer remember to grasp the valuable skill of learning to learn.
