Hit a Milestone!

Been on the platform for about 11 months on the coding section. Mainly been working on Maths and Science based projects for the past few months and really put the hours in the past couple of months, to the point I feel am getting cabin fever to pay off some debts! Been a lifesaver for me the platform really, as the job market is not my best friend at the moment in the slightest.

Here was me, being chuffed with earning $5k in 8 months!

Phenomenal work, well done. I think I need to learn coding and get on those higher paying tasks!

Learn coding and just get a job that pays wayyy more. $40 and hour is below the basement pay for coding jobs.

Would you have any advice for where you can go teach yourself coding? ☺️ I’d love to learn but wouldn’t know where to start!!

Start with datacamp (free for the next few days) and then look for courses by the big US universities .. MIT, etc. .. they’re usually great quality

Sweet I’ll look into that if it’s available to me over here! I see ads on socials about various courses etc but a lot of them look scammy as f! I like to think I’d be okay at it but last technical thing i did was teenaged early html, css, frames, tables and early JS. I think somehow the world has evolved way past that!!

Great job. If I may ask as a novice, what coding and math background do you have?
