Barcelona Code School is an excellent place for those who are looking to learn web development in a short time with a real learning experience, the unique thing is that while you studying you have to pass challenges, and these challenges make you understand and become better in the programming. It was a good decision for me to join this bootcamp; now I am a full-stack developer ready for the job market.- Luis FerrerStudent • Web / Mobile Development Online Mentored 1:1 Bootcamp • OnlineAug 11, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
JavaScript Full Stack Developer Bootcamp
This is the ideal Bootcamp for both, people who want to switch their professional careers towards Web Development or people eager to learn about it. Everything is very well explained on their website before starting the course and they reply to any questions you may have or even can arrange a videocall before you sign up.

Everything is very well explained on their website before starting the course and they reply to any questions you may have or even can arrange a videocall before you sign up.
Instructors really adapt to your needs, due to personal reasons I went for 16 weeks option (the longest) and obviously it still requires a lot of studying and several hours every day, but the course materials, the instructors availability to reply to any questions (full office hours) and the 1:1 weekly meetings with the instructors support and guide you throughout the whole course and beyond. If you are a beginner, besides the 2 weeks pre-course (my advice is to make it longer if possible), HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Express, Mongo, React Native can be very challenging but very rewarding in the end.
I'd definitely recommend this school and/or course to anyone who is looking forward to learning Programming and all the languages previously mentioned.

Great Course Structure and Support
It was my first real contact with the programming world and the Full-Stack Javascript and React Bootcamp provides all the necessary material and support.
I highly recommend Barcelona Code School for the structure of the course and for the help with job hunting.
I've finished the Bootcamp with my application developed, super satisfied and ready to apply for some junior roles. - LuisaGraduate • Web / Mobile Development Online Mentored 1:1 Bootcamp • OnlineJul 10, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
One of the best decisions I've made
I've been trying to learn javascript on my one for months and it was slow and frustrating, often hitting dead end and got nobody to ask for help. This bootcamp changed my life -- tons of materials, video instructions, almost instant help for all my questions and personal sessions made a big difference for me. Those guys know what they are doing, god bless them! - Gabriella TavaresGraduate • Web / Mobile Development Online Mentored 1:1 Bootcamp • OnlineMay 26, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Nice experience
I highly recommend the Javascript Full-Stack on-line mentored bootcamp! I went to the 9 week program and be prepared, it's hard! I came from a total different background, no I.T. experience, and had to study really hard to catch up. I also recommend to apply 2 weeks before the real bootcamp, so you can study the pre-course at your own pace and be fully prepared for the course.
George and Stefano are great mentors and really helpful! I'm glad I took this course. - MilenaGraduate • Web / Mobile Development Online Mentored 1:1 Bootcamp • OnlineSep 30, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Thanks guys!
I did an online bootcamp and happy i did, took me ages trying to figure out all these on my own before deciding to sign up, thanks guys especially for keeping up with my ridiculous schedule and tons of questions, learned everything I needed and more 👍👍👍 - SaraGraduate • Web / Mobile Development Bootcamp • BarcelonaApr 14, 2020Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I did have experience with html/css before, but I really think that you can finished the course without previous knowledge if you take time on the materials they send you before starting,

Hell of a ride!!
I came from totally different discipline and had no knowledge about coding at all. The boot camp was a journey to overcome a lot of obstacles and to succeed.
It was by far the best decision what I made. It brought me a different point of view on how to approach a problem not only code-wise but also in life.

BCS Full-Stack Bootcamp
When I first signed up for the course, I saw it as an opportunity to expand my skills and improve my CV, allowing me more options to choose from in the job market, I did not expect it to have this big a change on my way of approaching problems.

The course itself is intense, I found myself frustrated alot of the time, now looking back at those days I find them funny, but I truly remember days where I felt really discouraged and blocked, not because of a problem with the curriculum or instructors, but simply because of the number of new concepts I was trying to wrap my head around, but the further we went into the course, the less frustration I felt, and the more excited I became about adding more and more skills to my portfolio.
Frustration will be there regardless, but the instructors at BCS did a genuinly amazing job guiding me through it, especially when I think back at it now. At first I was a bit annoyed that my answers weren't being answered like I wanted them to be, and this will probably happen to you as well, but again, the farther we got into the course, the more I understood that I was asking the wrong questions somewhat, and the answers I was getting weren't the necessarily the ones that would solve my problem at the time, but they were the answers that would make me go on to be the best coder I can be.
So in a way, the most beneficial help my insturctors gave me was: knowing when to tell me how to fix a problem and push through the frustration and at other times knowing when to give me a small hint and let me go research a problem all on my own without making it too easy.
The layout of the course was really logical, it felt as if we had a natural progression among the topics, starting with the light stuff such as HTML/CSS and getting to know the ins and outs of JavaScript, and then moving on into the Front-end and Back-end centered programs, such as React, React Native and Express, and finally the course ended with the project period which was when everything truly came together, all the frustration and growing pains I went through during the early period of the course were replaced with productivity and fist-thrusts whenever a component finally worked like it should.
I would say that the course definitly changed my way of thinking, and this became more apparent in the period after the course, where the training wheels fell of so to speak, and I started coding on my own, something that seemed like a real challenge when I was still attending the class, but the good research habits I learned during the course, and my instructors always being ready to give detailed and fast help even until now have made a seemless transition.
This course will taught me how to approach coding problems in a really efficient and productive way, it allowed me to explore more of my creativity simply because I have so many more tools at my disposal now and it has aided me greatly in a professional sense as it has afforded me many new opportunities. I would recommend it to anyone trying to open new doors in their professional careers, or trying to find new avenues to express their creativity and individuality

I knew it was going to be a challenge, it's a lot to be taught in such short period, and I wasn't excited about it at all.

I took the Full Stack JavaScript Bootcamp to understand better what my partners were doing at work.

Happened that through this school I became fond of programming, and now I feel like working with it too. I wish I had done this before.
The course goes very fast, as expected. Most of the time we were doing exercises and that gave me a certain fluency in programming even I was surprised about. Being frustrated sometimes was inevitable so I gave up trying to be good at anything while learning, I just took notes and tried to absorb as much information as possible in that period. Do not think they will explain every single detail, there's no time for that. Somethings just work, I took notes and reviewed it later by myself on my time - every night and weekend. The extra effort definitely paid off, I was complimented in my exercises and even managed to help other classmates.
George and Stefano, my lecturers, have wide experience in teaching international students. All explained in clear English and step by step. Both made the perfect combination for me as a student. Super George has many years of experience to share and Saint Stefano understands well the student's point of view, they could find the best way to help me get over my obstacles and grow.
They keep on updating their material to better fit today's needs. It's an unforgetable experience, amazing people, and the investment pays off itself in no time. I learned enough to be able to start working but also to continue learning by myself. The course definitely reduces the struggle of learning coding. - Christopher KellyUX/ UI / Jr Developer • Graduate • Web / Mobile Development Bootcamp • BarcelonaNov 22, 2019Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

The course has given me so much. I mean, I have a developed my own professional work flow consisting of Sketch, XD, Figma. Sublime, Envision, React, Cloudinary, Netifly, Digital Ocean and I've been exposed to amazing resources like Materia UI, Medium, Xcode etc. It's been life changing. I've been introduced to this industry and met life long friends. (How can we do it? Let's do together :) It's a personable environment, the teaching is some of the best I've received and I've graduated from three universities. It's high intensity, consistent affirmation and I am proud to have been a graduate of the Barcelona Code School.

Scam
The other guy who gave 1 star described everything very accurately. Under no circumstance enroll in this course.
Yes, you will learn but once again the best part of this course were the other (only 3) students that felt exactly the same way. The course is a scam and not even worth a friction of the price.
On top of that the atmosphere is cold and unpleasant, the teacher is unqualified.

Hi Wynona.It really hurts our feelings to read that you are disappointed with the course. As we are always trying to find the best personalised approach to every student it seems that we have failed to meet your expectations. Maybe it was partly due to you not coming for a lot of lectures and not following the curriculum, ignoring your mentors suggestions, skipping the pre-course or simply our intensive pace and bootcamp format are not something you expected.As we have proven job placements for every student who finished the course successfully and was looking for a job your claims about unqualified instructors sound absolutely unbased.The guy you are referring to never ever attended the course in the first place and simply started looking for excuses after receiving a full pack with materials, video lessons and recorded lectures, so he didn’t have a chance to experience the course and our teaching method.I just wanted to post some quotes from my emails/messages to you showing concern and availability to help and support you with the course, as we do care for every student:“Hi Wynona.How are you?Are you going to be back at school tomorrow? We need to go through the React Native section and bring you up to speed. ”“Hi Wynona, how are you?Haven’t seen you at school for couple of days, is everything alright? ”“Hi Wynona.How is it going? Any questions so far? ”“Hi Wynona. How are you?Could you please remind me when you are going to travel for a week? Was it the last week of the course on December 17-21?As we are starting React Native on Monday it would be best if you are here for this new material.”“Hi Wynona. How are you?I’m a bit worried about you skipping the lectures, especially now when we are doing react.js.Is there some issues/work?”“Hey Wynona, how is it going?If you want, we can have a session with you after lunch to go through some exercises or explanations to help you to catch up?”Etc., etc., etc…Regardless of all this, we are always here for you available to help with anything possible.Thank you.
