Student Stories: Georgios Mastrogiannis

Currently studying Full-stack Web Development

Q: Tell us about yourself!

I currently live in the Czech Republic. I have been working in IT for 10 years now. In the last 2 years, I have moved towards automation, microservices, and DevOps. I started learning Python on my own. So, I am an infrastructure person, but not a dev person. I want to become a dev person!

I want a more complete picture of web development, so I want to learn both front-end and back-end web development from scratch.

Q: Why did you pick Altcademy?

I was looking around for bootcamps, and I saw Altcademy with great reviews! What I really like is that the curriculum is text-based. I prefer the text-based format because reading is better than watching when it comes to learning to code.

So far, I am very happy with the program. I have learned a lot of things. I enjoy the good feedback every time I submit an assignment. My mentor is giving very detailed feedback on my work. So, I am very satisfied with the 100% online experience.

In each assignment, you get to build something using your knowledge. Afterward, you can show the end product to your friends and say “I made this”!

Also, I want to learn the “correct stuff” and the best practices. You can save a lot of time doing a bootcamp.

Q: What are your goals?

I am a determined person. If I put something in my mind, I will get it done. I’m lucky that I’m not in a hurry. I haven’t decided what I will do after finishing the program. You never know about the future, but it’s good to know the ability to code. I am interested in trying out freelancing in the future!
