Be realistic, is 33 years too old to start a career in programming for someone who studied mechanical engineering? If one should start now when do you see him making cash from it. To be frank with you bro, money is motivation.

Just be real with me, using naija factor.

Hi, I hope you went chased the career in programming

To anyone who is trying to start a career in tech,
It's never too late to start anything in this life

Nigeria should not determine your actions

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?

Go for the long videos bro ... You'll get every information you need as a beginner
And it's not a must to complete it at once. You take your time
When you're done, you can now download ebooks and study them while building projects

There's no shortcuts to learning these stuffs

In case you decide to go for Udemy course in the future, then buy Jonas Schmedtmann JavaScript course. He's the best on Udemy

Make money doing what? Or I should visit, first?

Yeah, visit their site

I'm a student in a Nigerian university, I chose my course and gained admission but my family and friends hated my choice of course, I wanted to prove them wrong and I continued with my choice of course but at the end of my first year, I performed woefully and had a cgpa of 2.95, I'm currently in 200level but due my poor performance I've lost interest in my course, I registered for jamb and chose the course my parents want for me and I scored 265 and I'm determined to do better than before, Pls I need your opinion on this issue, do you think I'm doing the right thing?
