I’m super excited to announce that I’m taking HackerYou’s first ever Intro to Javascript & Jquery and Advanced Javascript & Jquery classes this fall. It starts this Monday, September 15th.

I’m ready to get a serious crash course in Javascript & Jquery! I know Wes Bos will be an amazing instructor and I can’t wait to take my web development skills to the next level.

Why I’m Going Back to School

As a web designer, I’ve taught myself a lot of skills through Googling, reading, attending Ladies Learning Code workshops, and of course a little trial and error. In the last year alone I’ve started using a preprocessor (SASS) for my CSS, learned and implemented version control (Git), learned how to write custom WordPress themes, and more.

With HTML, CSS, and even the PHP that powers WordPress, the syntax made sense to me. Javascript? Not so easy. I want to master the craft of web development and Javascript is a huge part of the web. I’ve taught myself a lot, but now it’s time to learn from the experts at HackerYou.
