Thanks. I will check them out.

It seems they're into many things, do you have the link to the particular offer?

Also check out W3school
I had my doubts until I checked them out. They're explain even the most little detail.

Silas6:
Thanks for your insight.

Does it mean I can get everything I need online, no need of buying the courses?

It's actually someone that offered to buy it for me.

Yes!!!
They're many free courses online but a lot times, people are not well informed. I will try getting the link of JavaScript from ALX Africa for you.

Silas6:
Greetings great people of nairaland. I want to start learning JavaScript since I already have some knowledge on both HTML and CSS.

The problem is this — I searched Udemy courses and I noticed there are so many JavaScript tutorials with Great reviews by different tutors.

I know that it's not all of them that'd be worth the time, some tutorials are just too long . Imagine spending more than 22hrs on just one video!

What I want from you is your suggestions on good JavaScript tutors and their tutorial videos that's tailored for beginners and not boring since most of them are long videos?

Check out ALX JavaScript course. They're partnering with Udacity and it's free. But you better register on time before it closes.

Ikukuudo:
Please what computer package can you suggest for someone like me.

I have decided to use this opportunity to learn something new. Am a student and due to the ongoing ASUU strike I have been at home doing almost nothing. I want to use this opportunity to acquire a new skill in computer.
But I have no Idea what exactly to learn.

I have done my computer appreciation long ago but currently I need to learn something that can fetch me money. (Aside yahoo)

Am currently at MARARABA. I will be thankful for every thoughtful suggestions, ideas and opinions.

If you decide to learn a skill in tech then you have to be patient and consistent. You won't learn it overnight and start working. You didn't specify the filed you wanna specialize in so I would assume Frontend dev.

Check out ALX Africa, they have good courses you can learn for free, the registration will be closing soon. I suggested ALX Africa because of their software engineering program, or use web3school to learn Html, css, JavaScript, react and bootstrap. They're lessons are quite detailed and interesting.

mamawa123:
I thought all these made up fake stories will end in 2021

And you knew it was fake how? Is 200k too much as a salary for you? Stop acting ignorant in this new year, I saw many like you up there calling it false because of the amount, it's a new year, how about making good use of your phone.
There's more to what your phone can do than trolling ignorantly.

Sirchiboy:
..
I beseech you now,
Get me that job now and let me believe.
Prove me right by getting me a job that pay that amount then I will forever be grateful to you uncle

Lmao
You sound desperate but I have one answer for you.
Tech!!
Learn a digital skill then getting a high paying job wouldn't be an issue.
Least I forget, you would need at least 6 months to a year to learn though depending on the skill you pick.
I suggest you go for frontend as a newbie.

Then again, there are some online jobs you can apply for if you have no finance at all. Check out Transcribeme, you get paid to Transcribe audios into written files but you have to pass their exam.

RECTE SAPERE FONS!!! Stop giving yourself false hope and making baseless assumptions.

Many aspirant are scared of choosing UI because of O'level and shortlisting before P.utme exam wahala.

UI don't accept 2 sitting in college of medicine and faculty of Pharmacy but OAU does. Now, who's better

OAU and UNILORIN has over 80,000 and 100,000 candidate that chose them in Jamb but only 17,000 could make 200+.

FYI, only a mere 40,000 choose UI and 9,900+ scored 200+.

So, who's better

Btw, I have a friend that scored 222 in OAU p.utme last year(so called acid test ) but could only make 49 in UI p.utme. Not above average sef.

P.S- UI don't allow calculator in P.utme unlike OAU. Mstcheew

The audacity to you lots to sit your ass and compare Schools like that's an assurance of a fulfilled life. Lmao
How about we wait for y'all to graduate, get a job and start earning, then you won't have time for this.

Ouchbabe:
Copywriting? I will look into it.
Transcribeme sounds interesting. I like the idea.
I will check it out on google meanwhile any further information you have will be quite helpful.
Thanks a lot. I appreciate

Transcribeme sounds interesting but not easy to land a job, though I hope you get in.
Copywriting on the other hand is good! But you need skills.

Anyways if there's any digital skills you are passionate about, you can get them at Freecoursesite you will get paid courses of Udemy, Udacity, Coursera for free on Freecoursesite.

Ouchbabe:
For now I can't do any of the listed jobs above but I can edit and proofread, please any idea on how to locate potential clients?

I will be very honest with you, it won't be easy getting a client with that skill of yours. But check Freelancer for proofread gigs

Ouchbabe:

You can go for copywriting. Make your research and you can also work remotely on it. Ever heard of Transcribeme? You get paid to Transcribe audios into written files but you have pass their exam and score 100/100.

iLoveYouToo:
You think you smart like the average Nigerian always does but you can’t solve your basic problems. Joke’s on you bruh

And you came to this assumption how?
Sigh... What a waste of my time.

iLoveYouToo:
If na me I for buy the laptop, then the legs go open

Girls like gra gra, if you ask they’ll turn you down so you gotta be smart (if you have the money to throw around). Plenty talk na for broke boys and girls

Yet you are not talking smart man. Being pretty doesn't mean she merit the laptop, you think too shallow.

Animegirl:
To be honest, I don't have any skill yet but I want to learn product design and software development. I'm a corper but the monthly stipend isn't enough for me to save up for a laptop. What can I do for you? Nothing, aside from my prayers and good wishes in your life, "for now". Also I won't ever forget you.

Pardon my bluntness, but I find this hard to believe since your post doesn't portray you as a experience, matured, or learned person. There's more your phone can do than making irrelevant post.
Ever heard of Transcribeme? You get paid to Transcribe audios into videos.
Ever heard of copywriting? Make yourself useful and stop giving the female gender a bad name.

Animegirl:
I've been friends with this guy for couple of months now. This morning, he wished me, happy new month and told me to ask for a gift. I was so happy and thanking my stars that finally God is about to use someone to bless me with a laptop. Immediately, I told him, I needed a laptop.

Guess his response!!! He bluntly stated until I accept to be his "girlfriend" that I won't get that from him. I asked if he was serious and he said yes. With annoyance, I cut the phone call, blacklist and blocked him from my WhatsApp.

Why ask me what I want if he wants something from me? Why are some men like this? Why can't some men help a pretty lady without asking for a relationship or sxx?

What he said was it right?

I actually need a laptop though.

My gender ohhhh.... Stop all this silly entitlement.
Blocking him doesn't add anything to his life neither did it remove anything because you are the one in need.
I have to say, It is wrong that you made such Demand from him and even more wrong because you expected him to help you when your existence isn't beneficial to him in the least. This is why some people have the prejudice that Nigerian girls are dumb.
I'm surprised of your audacity to post this online, I wanna believe you are trolling for attention but for the sake of the responsible females out there whom you are giving bad names through your disgraceful display, please stop.

Icepresh:
Coding or Programming. Which is better to learn and easier ?

I saw this somewhere. I hope it helps though I don't think you know what you wanna do since you are trying to pick an easier one.

morinto:
Please read to understand. I never told him the scam is from Nigeria. He only ask how did I know all these tricks about scamming and I told him my region where I stay is full of scammers and I need to be smart to be able to outsmart them

Though what you said up there is quite different from what you wrote here but nonetheless I understand. I shall end it here.

morinto:
Why taking it personal as if am not saying the truth.

You make it sound like Nigerians are the only scammers in Africa. Even though it was a scam, you can't always be sure that it was a Nigerian. That is what that guy was trying to explain to you.

The white guy already took your word and you don't know the negative impact it might have on the innocent ones looking to business online. If there be a next time, please don't say "you come from a region full of scammers" even though this wasn't what you said, you implied it.

Nothingserious:
You are spot on.

We can discuss IQ and mismanagement in Africa separately.

We know we have plenty issues in Africa. Low IQ isn’t one of them.

Bring all the African, Asians, European and Americans kids with no exposure and groom then all here in Africa or in Asia and then test their IQs.

If the results are consistent over a long period of time after being given equal opportunities, then a conclusion can be drawn.

My personal opinion.

.


Exactly!
Riding with the bandwagons on the wrong prejudice about Africa is just wrong!

Supreme145:
Of course I know that, dating is the least of my problems and I've no problem attracting ladies as well, but he made it seem like I was living in a shithole and it made me upset.

If what you said above is true then you shouldn't mind opinions. It's not like dating automatically gives you a better life.

illicit:
We discovered iron but only made crude items from it


The Europeans made guns, cars....

Mansa Musa had Gold, he was the richest man
He spent all his gold on a pilgrimage to Asia
On his way back he was bankrupt

If we're judging Africa from two centuries ago then it has nothing to do with IQ.
There's a lot of things wrong but definitely not the IQ. There's leadership mismanagement, corruption, tribalism, nepotism, constant war and that has nothing to do with IQ.


Mansa Musa was an absolute monarch whose power cannot be questions. You can't judge others for his foolishness, If that be the case, we could revisit France before the french revolution, the King Louis iv wasn't any different from Mansa Musa and his mismanagement of the country that led to the french revolution. If Africans had low IQ, they wouldn't strive in the developed world even to the extent where the whites feel threatened by their presence.

Buliwyf:
Hitler had haters and violent opposition too. Going by your analogy he had a great spirit as well.
Too many dumb mugus in Christianity. You and Righteousness2 are perfect examples of thoughtless foolishness that is masquerading as piety.

You have said it all! These are the type of people who make you question your religion with their foolishness. I can stand crazy, dumb, eccentric people but not religion extremist.

By the way, I think it is better we ignore them, giving them attention won't change anything.

kingnl:
Thanks sir,please the name of the app or link,I want to start immediately

The name of the app is 'Great Learning'
You will find it on playstore.

Aksnoopy:
I only engage rational Alpha male in discussion through quotes and you are clearly not one.

You will learn sooner or later.

You ain't worth my time,Bye!

Your post goes further to show how immature you are. Seriously... Alpha male? It is amusing how people think sometimes.
Speaking of time, I didn't quote you because you are worth something but because there was a need to correct your misconception.
Good day!

Angeldemon:
A helper not partner. Adam was capable of doing everything before eve came along.
God saw it wasn't good for him to be alone. Meaning to be his company, make him happier and reduce his stress in life.
If a woman doesn't do those thing she must be done away with from your life swiftly or else she will destroy it.

If you cannot distinguish between the two and the whole essence of women's existence then I have nothing to say to you. Good day.

Magnoliaa:
Yup. As he rightly should.

Sorry honey but I don't go by that ideology.

ozonechrome:
I feel when people get married, the money that comes in becomes "our" money irrespective of who earns it.

If you don't trust him with money, don't marry him.

Very few people have this conception. A lot goes with the *The man is the head of the family and so should foot all the bills*

Aksnoopy:
You are a tiro when it comes too life issue.
Human evolves as higher animal, the world is changing real fast. Women are more influenced by what they see now than ever. If you believe series don't depict the reality going on in the world then you are definitely a kid.

Can you watch the movie "secret society" and say them thing you said up there?

Be rationale next time please!

*Humans are influenced by words and what they see*
You lost me when you called *Women* Though I'm quite aware that gender has certain things that influence them but your writeup doesn't make you more of an. I mean I won't take offenses of being called a kid but at the end of the day, it is about how you think and judge things.

Yes!! Literature mirrors life but wasn't I clear enough? So bold of you to have a prejudice for all women because of a certain series. In every movie there's something to learn but accepting everything you see? Pardon my use of words, but isn't that foolishness?
