Learning Web Development and React: how much does it cost?

They say you should take a 5000 € bootcamp before you can land your first job.

That is not true.

They speculate on your passion, they bet with your money.

That approach is highly risky for you.

What if you spend 5000 € and then you don't find any job?

What if someone else is learning much faster than you, without spending so much?

What if you learned React the right way, investing on Test Driven Development, instead of playing with some silly tutorial?

Stop wasting your money (and your time) before it's too late.

"Why on hearth would I pay someone for teaching me Web Development?"

I thought the same thing years ago.

I bought dozen of courses.

I read hundreds of tutorials.

Yet I was missing something: the human factor, someone who could guide me

Do you really want to learn on your own?

Why not investing in a personal coach?

What Can I Do For You?

React Advanced Training

Starting from ~~49 € / h~~ 29 € / h until October (vat ex.)

React is an ubiquitous library for building user interfaces, with a steadily growth in usage.

You learned the basics of React, and now what?

Look no further.

I'll take your React skills to the next level with:

React fundamentals revisited
React and Redux
TypeScript in React
Testing in React
and much more!

Javascript Training

Starting from ~~29 € / h~~ 19 € / h until October (vat ex.)

JavaScript is not the poor's man language anymore.

Mastering JavaScript is paramount for the modern Web Developer.

The cool thing?

I'll take your JavaScript skills to the next level.

With me you'll talk about serious JavaScript stuff like:

event loop and call stack
closures
the "new" keyword
Promises and async JavaScript
and much more!

Redux Training

Redux is not only a state management library.

It is a powerful pattern that every Front End Developer should learn.

Understanding Redux will open up a new world for you.

With me you'll learn about:

Redux fundamentals revisited
Redux selectors
async actions
Redux testing
and much more!

Graphql & Apollo Training

GraphQL is a powerful query language for building applications and APIs

With my tailored training you'll discover and implement GraphQL from the ground up

You will master Apollo for building client applications and at the end of our journey you'll be able to build stuff on your own

How does the training program work?

My training program is based on personalized learning paths.

There are no pre-recorded videos, everything is tailor-made for you.

The training program is composed of video/audio 1 to 1 sessions, with study material and exercises.

There isn't a minimal amount of sessions, it's up to you to schedule a session whenever you want.

Training sessions are paid while the study material is 100% free.

FAQ

"I know PHP, Mysql, jQuery. Is your training useful to me?"

Are you a PHP developer and you know a bit of jQuery? You're welcome!

My JavaScript training is the next enhancement for your skills.

Modern front-end libraries (React) are a great complement for building rich PHP applications.

"I am a Wordpress developer. Should I study JavaScript?"

Bingo!

Did you know that Gutenber, the new Wordpress editor, uses Redux under the hood?

Guess what, learning JavaScript and React is paramount for working with modern Wordpress.

"I am an UI developer, is your training program for me?"

There is an overlap between UI and front-end developers these days.

Even if you're a UI developer/designer chances are you'll soon stumble upon React or Redux.

Can you afford to be unprepared?

"Valentino, why did you choose to teach? Isn't there enough work as a developer?"

Web Development is fantastic but sometimes your dreams collide with unrealistic projects and ridiculous budgets.

With time I discovered a strong attitude in teaching rather than making websites.

Some people said to me:

"Valentino, you're blessed with this teaching gift!"

"You can even explain Redux to a goat and it will understand!"

Since then I decided to completely focus on teaching Web Development.

And I won't never look back!

"Do you offer consultancy on JavaScript, React, and Redux?"

Aside from training I offer consultancy on JavaScript, React, and Redux.

I can help individuals and teams with best practices and insight for building rock-solid web applications.

Let's get in touch!

"What are the requirements for joining your JavaScript training? Do I need a Mac?"

If you want to learn JavaScript from zero, well, there are no requirements.

We can start right away!

As for the platform I work mainly from Linux and Mac. But you don't need to buy a Mac!

As long as you have Node.js and an editor, almost every operating system will do.

(Unfortunately I can't offer support for the Windows operating system).

"I want to learn vanilla JavaScript, ES6, React and Redux. How long it will take?"

Here's an harsh truth: web development is a journey. Sometimes a tough one.

Every person is different: someone makes it in 2 months, some other will need 1 year.

But here's the good news: the average coachee learns Redux in 10 days (1 lesson per day) or ~ 1 month (2 lessons per week).

Same for the advanced JavaScript path and for the React path.

Given a complete training path (JS, ES6, React, Redux) you can expect to be 100% operational within ~ 3 months (2 lessons per week) or so.

"I want to improve all my skills: JS, ES6, React, Redux. Where do even start?"

Usually I start with a couple of lessons on advanced JavaScript.

From there we can mix and match vanilla JavaScript with React and ES6.

Next up we'll introduce Redux and work your way through the entire frontend stack.

Don't worry! I've got you covered!

"What are the requirements for joining your React / Redux training?"

Even if we can start with React's basics, React and Redux are somehow advanced topics.

A basic understanding of JavaScript is required.

Do not worry though, you can get by with enough JavaScript, and we'll go from there, together.

My students say

Luca Parlapiano, Android Developer

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Valentino is a great teacher! He is professional and prepared.

He makes every topic clear and understandable.

The lessons are relaxed and focused on guiding the student to clearly understand the concepts.

I've spared not less than 6 months of study and research on Redux thanks to him!

Irene Tomaini, Front End Developer

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Great teacher.

I like the assignments so much, they are focused on solving real practical problems with React.

The assignments are never trivial, they require an effort which helps to internalize the concepts.

Being coached with a personalized learning path is very useful and helps saving plenty of time!

Cristiano Bianchi / JavaScript Developer

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

I always studied JavaScript as a self-taught developer.

Then I decided to contact Valentino because I felt I had to dig deeper into the intricacies of JavaScript.

And also because I needed to maximize my studying schedule.

Valentino is able to explain JavaScript clearly, adapting the study plan to my needs.

The exercises are great too, and they help sticking JavaScript in my head.

Great teacher! Highly recommended!

Meet your coach

I am Valentino Gagliardi and I help busy people learning JavaScript and React.

Tired of seeing other fellow developers wasting money on online courses I decided to launch my own training program.

I don't use pre-recorded videos: I mentor my students with care.

I do not teach function and variables: I want you to master Javascript internals.

My students gets trained to understand Javascript in its inner functioning.

So they can pass that Javascript interview.

Between one lesson and another I do consulting on React, Redux, webpack, and Javascript

I write a lot and one of my best articles is React Redux Tutorial for Beginners: The Definitive Guide

Mark Erikson (Redux mantainer) mentions my article as one of the best resources for learning Redux.
