Java Foundations: Fast-track

"Andreas is a fantastic teacher! In addition to the fact that I experienced him as competent with a solid knowledge of his subjects, he really excels as an educator. Regardless of who you are or what level of knowledge you are at, Andreas always responds to one's questions with commitment, curiosity and a positive attitude that is contagious. Above all, I appreciated that he both gave me space to explore solutions myself and think creatively, while he was always there to contribute his support. I highly recommend Andreas!"

"In all my years at school, I have never met a teacher who treated his students with as much patience and joy as Andreas did. His commitment to us felt very genuine, and it was clear that he was the right person in the right place. I am very glad we had him as a teacher during our 12 weeks at Brights."

"Andreas is a very positive and easy-going individual, but above all a fantastic educator. His teaching method and structure is adapted for everyone from beginners to experienced participants. Quick to provide personal assistance, called up on video chat and took his time. I appreciated all the Java days, I am so satisfied and grateful with the foundation I got with me. Strongly recommend. Rating 5 out of 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"Andreas often alternated between theory and practice in the training, which meant that I always felt engaged as I applied what I learned directly. This made learning efficient and enabled me as a student to absorb a large amount of information and leave the course with new experiences and skills."

"My name is Rabia and I participated in the Java Developer course with Andreas starting January 2022 after 20 years in the banking and finance industry. Previously had no experience whatsoever in the IT world, but chose the track with the digitization the world is going through. The course was incredibly broad & intensive and gave a good overview. When the course was over, I was hired by Capgemini as a junior developer. During the course I probably complained many times about how much information it presented, but I have benefited greatly from everything I have been taught. I continue to learn every day but have an understanding that still amazes me when I realize how much I brought with me. Thanks Andreas for everything! The course has given me the opportunity to pursue a new career in a new industry that I love. The change has given me new energy and opened up new doors. I am so grateful!"

"The Java program at Academic Work was excellent! It consisted of, given the name, mostly programming in Java, but also had some front-end courses. I thought the Java courses were the best. Not only because I was most interested in java, but also because the teacher in the java courses was Andreas. It's easy for it to get messy and "too much" when learning programming, especially for those starting from scratch, but Andreas taught in a very pedagogical way, and it never became long-winded or boring. Recommends the java program at Academic Work to anyone who wants to learn programming and wants to change careers."

"I'm a senior software engineer whose main languages are TypeScript and Python. I recently joined a new team that's very Java-heavy, and I spent a long time trying to find something that was the right skill level for me to learn Java. Everything I found seemed too basic and was explaining things like the concepts of variables, or assumed too much knowledge and was too difficult. I'm so pleased to have found Actlea; it was precisely what I needed to get up to speed. Andreas was great and found an excellent balance of explaining the language-specific features while assuming some prior knowledge. If you're already familiar with one or more languages and need to get up to speed quickly in Java, this is the course you're looking for. The cadence and pacing of the class is perfect, engaging, and thorough, and I have the tools I need now to delve deeper into this language and make an impact on my team. Thanks, Andreas, for putting this together!"

"I thought it would be almost impossible to learn everything that was going to be covered in the three months we had. But Andreas broke it all down and explained in such a way that you understood and adjusted the pace of the training while making sure that all subjects were covered. It is obvious that he has a lot of knowledge and enjoys teaching."

"One of the things I appreciated about Andreas as a teacher was the ability to meet everyone at their level in a permissive and understanding way. Whether it concerned questions that were far beyond what we were talking about right now or things that we had already talked about before, there were no questions that felt stupid, but we participants were seen as intelligent, thinking people who have the capacity to filter the information ourselves. That respect for us and our journey meant a lot to me and I think it was a big part of why the training worked so well."

"I learned a lot on Andreas course! He is helpful and educational and I appreciated how he could easily point me in the right direction on projects when I got stuck, without giving the whole "answer". It did a lot for my problem solving skills and I got better at debugging the code during the course. I also appreciated that he was always positive and supportive in learning! Thanks Andreas!"
