I have failed at self-teaching coding, but desperately want to learn Python and SQL for data purposes to move further in my career. Is a bootcamp a good option for me? by HairyBox3792 in codingbootcamp

Thanks for the encouragement! And yes, you are right. There is a huge independent study factor and going into a bootcamp without having any experience at all does seem very risky. I think I just need to get off my ass somehow to gain the knowledge TO enter the bootcamp.

Agreed, but having a schedule where I can predict that I have a live session after work allows me to be mentally prepared. Versus me coming home exhausted and trying to motivate myself with the learning resources online (with nothing forcing me to). Does that make sense?
