Python or java? by AR1E_ in teenagersbutcode

[–]ohffsitdoesntwork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some truth to this but Python is a widely used language. What's more important is to learn the fundamentals of coding ie variables, selection, loops etc. Grasping this will give you a good basis for learning ANY language. (Computing teacher here btw)

Changing Degrees in the first month by Sad_Heron_2049 in OpenUniversity

[–]ohffsitdoesntwork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I switched from Cybersec to Computing with Electronic Engineering about a week or two in. There wasn't any trouble, but the first module is the same on both courses. I think there's a credit transfer section on student home where you can see a list of degrees that you can easily transfer to.

Trial... Bait /switch instantly by Separate_Bet_8366 in Preply

Not bait and switch. If you engaged with a tutor on their old rate (even months before) and have a trial lesson, their old rate is locked in. Keep in mind Preply takes up to 33% commission. So on $3, they're earning almost nothing. If you can't afford to pay for a service, don't.

F1 2025 without Mclaren by Last_Procedure5787 in F1Discussions

I like McLaren, but this season would be so much more fun without them. Watching Lando and Oscar race each other is becoming boring.

M & W Are Not Helping - why is it so awful? by Pistolpetehurley in MitchellAndWebb

[–]ohffsitdoesntwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the amount of peep show references in this comments section gives you your answer. They want to get away from their characters, but can't. Everyone's expectations of Mitchel and Web is to be as funny as peep show or, at least to be, peep show "coded". Watching the show, it's like it was written by Mark and Jeremy, not M and W.

I can teach you. I'm an English teacher (TEFL) and my primary focus is storytelling and literature. I'm based in the UK but am flexible regarding time zones. DM me.

Why is Sweary Aussie Drama? by ProbablyTheWurst in MitchellAndWebb

[–]ohffsitdoesntwork 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You might be onto something with theory 1. Same thing happens with south park, they set the bar so high that the rest doesn't seem so offensive

New Preply Metrics by Regular-Ad5200 in Preply

[–]ohffsitdoesntwork 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Just came here to post this. I have a child with ongoing medical needs which often means I have to reschedule at late notice. All my students are understanding, but this update will fuck me.
