Hello. Justin here. I am 35, have been teaching in school since my early 20s, and as much as I love learning and love music (I currently teach elementary music), I need a change. My current teaching job finishes in June 2020 and from July I'm looking at options including a CS degree and/or a coding bootcamp. This month I'm starting on FreeCodeCamp.

I am looking for support, ideas, mentors, and more in places like dev.to
My goal is to move into web development and ultimately full stack or something similar. It be great if I could start getting paid work by the end of 2020, doing some kind of remote / part time / freelance work.
Nice to meet you all. Thank you!

Hi Justin, nice to meet you!

I just finished up on FreeCodeCamp late last year. They offer some really great lessons. Feel free to message me if you ever need help or feedback for them :)

Emily, thank you. Nice to meet you too. I'll be sure to keep an eye out and get in touch. It's still early stages yet with FreeCodeCamp.
