This work and programming training sef.
I know for certain that one will someday have to give way for another, either you choose one or you loose interest in one automatically.

The thing is giving me serious concern. I can't even practice for two hours daily as advised by my instructor. Anyway, I will keep pushing...

Today wasn't good at all. I missed another class because of work. ...and I didn't call my instructor to reschedule it because I didn't want my cousin to miss the class. However, I had to rush to my cousin's house to see what they did. I may sneak into class tomorrow to see my instructor. With the way things are going, at the end of this web design class, I will need to take some break to properly prepare and reschedule myself very well for the programming class...

I fear your teacher nailed it here.

thank you

She entertained us,...

You are yet to see the beauty of Abia. Our state is beautifully made. Thats how we want it.Hahaha

l don't think you can do without javascript for frontend web development. Python is popular for the web but not as popular as javascript or PHP from my findings so far.
However l also agree with your instructor on this, you can't learn everything at once, but I'll say after learning Html and css, learn any of the popular javascript frameworks (like React, Jquery, or Angular next). Then cap it up with Python's Django, Pyramid, Web2py or Flask.
You can use the Django Rest framework for Restful Api's, with Javascript's React at the front end.
When it comes to the web, there's a lot to learn, there's also sql for your database management, just take it one at a time.

Thank you for your contribution. Yes, he is saying a lot about JavaScript, jquery, SQL,... I really can't put those things together. I will just take things one after the other. Our next class after this CSS is bootstrap. After that, another thing. He is always saying, practice and practice on your own ohh..

...I am beginning to love this IT class. Its fun but its really eating into my schedule. Today we had another class and It was pretty cool. We did more work on CSS and then layouting the site. oh! I can't wait to start my python class.

Yes, i have a question to ask. Though i want to learn Python programming, my intention was not to use it for web development. In the web development, i wish to learn PHP, javascript... Now my instructor adviced me to start off web development with pyhton and leave PHP. To him, it will be better to learn python and use it for web development and whatever i want to use it for, than learning PHP, javascript (which are also programming language) for web development and then fall back to start pyhton. Thats a very long long journey. According to him, its better i master one programming language and master it very well, and that will take me timeeeeeeee. Since its python, i should face pyhton squarely.


So what do you think about the advice?


Pic: the outcome of what we did today. We laid out our site into different divisions and styled it with CSS. How do you see it?

...today was a cool day. We had a class. My cousin joined me. He started his class around 9am and had a crash course on HTML. Then by 1pm I arrived for the class. My class was delayed for 1 hours because my instructor had another class he was handling. So I used the 1 hours to take my cousin on HTML. He is really learning fast. We practiced for some time and by 2pm we started the class with our instructor. We did CSS and used it to do some pretty stuffs with the little knowledge we have on HTML. Our class ended some minutes after 4pm.


Unfortunately I got to the house very late because there was an accident on the road. A trailer carrying a heavy equipment lost control, fell and blocked the road. Thank God no life was lost.

Marry tutorial videos.... I bet they'd teach u guys WordPress and call it web development.

if this is your bet, tear your coupon because you have lost it.

Why didn't he invite Buhari to the unveiling ceremony?

MobilityExpress:
Only in China. Outside of China, it would have destroyed them. Huawei will be thanking their God now.



How would it have killed Google? Within the context of the global mobile phone industry alone, If Android retired Blackberry, then who is Huawei to Google? That's like saying if Mercedes Benz stops using Michellin tyres it will fold up Impossicant. Google is even bigger than Apple as far as the mobile phone industry dominance percentage is concerned.

I am not even putting Apple into the perspective. My own angle is from the side of Huawei and China building a new OS as an alternative. Google provides a service which Huawei is one of their highest patronizers. If Huawei looks else where for OS, google will suffer. Take it or leave it

This policy could have killed google and not Huawei.


Imagine google losing its "second largest customer".

I hate to see women fight, not to talk of fighting by dragging their hair! It's disgusting!! If you must fight, then leave the hair let's see your strength!!!

I will miss class today.

Today is really a bad day. The machinist I am working with messed up my material. Instruction is to cut the cylinder 18 inches but he cut it 12.5inches. I got to his workshop and got tired. He just messed this stainless cylinder. I am going to stay with him to be sure he follows the remaining instructions. So no web design class for me today, mtcheew!!!

Anyway, tomorrow is another class

geedot:
Morning bro, just graded from the uni, instead of wasting one year away all in the name of NYSC, I'd love to enrol under an instructor like yours as I also got distracted alot when I decided on learning programming on my own few years back. Which state are you based?

Umuahia, Abia

-We are done for today. It was a cool class today. We did some more html stuffs like creating a table and checking out the form i built. We had a little introduction to CSS and by next week we will start CSS.

My next class should have been on Monday but we shifted it to tuesday because i have an important engagement on monday. My instructor is pretty cool and flexible with schedules. I like that

asalimpo:
You've not gotten into programming yet. You get there when u strt writing code,for now,u r doing markup. Brace yourself, you r in d easiest phase.
Not discouragemnt intended.

Maybe you didn't understand the topic. I said "my journey to programming". I just started and i am heading to programming. I will definitely get to programming. Thanks for stopping by. Always check on me from time to time. cheers.

Today's class is about to start. meanwhile, have a look of one form i built.


see you in the evening.

Thank you.

Day 3


Today is Friday. I have another class and as usual, it is by 1:0pm. Today I am expected to present the two forms I built to my instructor.

See you later in the evening.

Day 2

Today was pretty cool. It rained throughout the morning. Class started a little after 1:0 pm. It lasted for more than 2 hours which was our agreed duration per class. My instructor was impressed on my practice and we used what i practiced on to practice other tags and functions.

I was given an assignment to build two pages of forms. So that will preoccupy most of night.

Picture below is a screenshot of what we did today.

Thursday is here already. I have a class by 1pm. So noe I am taking some time to practice before going for the class.

How much did d programme cost? It's a right move u made. Learning under a skilled hand saves you time. Loads of it.

the total cost hovers around 190k. Web design 26k Web development, 41k and Python 121k. Yes, with this structured learning, I believe I will do well

Following..

I've been wanting to learn programming too for more than 6 years now. started many times but lost interest.

Right now, I've made up my mind. I've downloaded several books on Python and learning a few things with SoloLearn. But I'll have to change focus now and start with Java. Reason being that my project supervisor (a post graduate program) insists I use Java for my project. I'm like, I might as well start with Java then.. What do you guys think about that?

Interesting. I once tried sololearn and some other app but I couldn't learn a thing with them. I think this approach of getting an instructor is the best. Now to make it more interesting, my cousin wants to join me. With a study mate, I think I will move faster.

You are welcome to the coding world never forget to print hello world as ur first practical output,lolz......Wishing you all the best

Thank you

is there proof he actually did it

I was just going through Nairaland and I saw it. There are heavy accusations leveled against the other moniker linked to him

Hello Nairaland,

I want to keep a diary on my journey to programming. I would have opened the thread on the dairy section but I decided to do it here where I can get comments from time to time.

For over two years i have been dreaming of learning Python or any other language that can help me with the projects I have in mind. I have tried severally to learn on my own using videos from YouTube but I always lose concentration.

So last week I summoned courage to register with an IT firm for training and get a personal instructor.

They training will be from wed design to wed development and then Python. The web design is expected to last for 8 weeks, then after I migrate to web development which will last for another 8weeks. ...and the Python. Seems the training will be a long one


So my training started yesterday, 13/05/19. I was assigned an instructor who I can say is good. Our first class was pretty good.


We did a lot of story telling, some theory talks and then practicals. In our practical I was able to install an editor, create a folder in my system for the tutorial class, learnt about tags, attributes and values,etc then did some coding, viewed it on the browser and saved. Our class lasted for two hours and we dismissed for the day. My instructor gave me a task to always code or practice for at least 2 hours everyday.


At the end of the day, we scheduled to have three classes a week. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. But for this week, it will be Monday, Thursday and Friday. The classes could be adjusted to suit our personal schedule as he is also a busy person and I also have other jobs I do.

This dairy is just to boast my morale and help me keep up with the training. If you find time, please drop a word of encouragement for me.

I will be adding screenshots of my training/practice from time to time. For now, bye. My next class is on Thursday.

what do you have to say about what someone just posted about you?

Yesterday was Ekeakpara market day, In osisioma LGA, Abia. Oil there was 6000. Today is Oriendu Market day, Isuikwuato LGA. Oil is 5500, 5800 and 6000. Very few People sold 5500 and 6000. Majority sold at 5800. We can say that the price of oil is returning back to 6000.

A little of advice. It's better you buy 6500 at the mill than to buy 5500 or 6000 at the market. Be sure of what you are buying. The market we are talking about is the bush market oh. If you go to the markets in town, oil is even beyond 7000.

profem1:
What's driving prices lower??

dealers claim that imported oil is all over the market and they are cheap. So when they buy at higher price they can't compete and sell their own goods. So they price down the oil to the amount that they can compete favourably with the imported ones and still make good profit.
