00:00.630 --> 00:02.500
They're welcome to the next video.

00:02.790 --> 00:09.060
So in this video I would really like to do spend a couple seconds introducing myself as well as introducing

00:09.060 --> 00:09.530
blue.

00:09.540 --> 00:10.830
This is our course teej.

00:11.010 --> 00:16.750
You'll see her pop up a couple of times in the course hopefully you don't have a problem with cats anyways.

00:16.830 --> 00:22.440
So my background really is that I've been teaching people to program in person for the last five or

00:22.440 --> 00:28.280
so years I've been teaching a web development bootcamps in the San Francisco Bay area pretty much nonstop.

00:28.290 --> 00:33.180
So if you're not familiar with who camps where did all the camps that is the way they typically work

00:33.240 --> 00:38.070
is that there are three to six month long programs where students basically commit their lives for that

00:38.070 --> 00:41.100
duration to learning to cope and nothing else.

00:41.100 --> 00:43.010
It's a very very intensive program.

00:43.020 --> 00:47.220
We take students who have zero programming experience all the way up to the point where they get web

00:47.220 --> 00:48.240
developer jobs.

00:48.510 --> 00:49.620
So really rewarding work.

00:49.620 --> 00:55.110
I fell in love with teaching five or seven years ago and recently I decided to try my hand at taking

00:55.110 --> 00:58.560
my in classroom approach and trying to bring it online.

00:58.770 --> 01:02.190
So this is my second course and this course as you know is on my ass.

01:02.190 --> 01:06.690
Q Well it's kind of the next logical step to teach online.

01:06.690 --> 01:08.690
So I used to teach this in person as well.

01:08.820 --> 01:12.420
I'm now trying to take my curriculum and bring it to the classroom on Monday.

01:12.420 --> 01:12.800
All right.

01:12.930 --> 01:14.210
So that's enough about myself.

01:14.340 --> 01:18.330
If you have any questions if you're curious or you're actually interested in in person bootcamps you

01:18.330 --> 01:19.110
have questions.

01:19.230 --> 01:20.590
Absolutely reach out to me.

01:20.640 --> 01:23.570
Send me a message or post a question on the discussion boards.

01:23.670 --> 01:24.360
All right.

01:24.360 --> 01:25.340
See you in the next video.
