Hello Marilia I am kind of in the same boat as you, only you have it much harder as I believe you have to look after your son and the house also, I am enrolled in a web dev boot camp that is pretty intensive and the list of assignments they are giving is piling up, and I am not able to complete them as quick of a rate as my peers do because me being bad at math, my peers are able to develop logic faster.
Getting into the web-dev boot camp was also tough as the entry barrier is high, we have to make projects before the camp, and then we have to face a JavaScript (machine coding round ) interview based on the projects we have made. i somehow was able to crack the interview and got in.
The assignments that I am doing are quite slow as it takes me around 2-3 hrs on solving one problem, whereas peers are getting it done in half an hour. Nevertheless, I believe not giving up is the key.
Logic Building is quite slow for me, but I do believe I have certainly improved even though the improvement is not noticeable, but it is improvement alright.
some of the resources that have helped me so far are
1) scrimba.com
2) The Net Ninja (YT)
3) Florin Pop (YT)
4) javascriptinfo.com
also the FCC's JS course is easy and interactive I found it easy to follow, and it does remain in the brain for quite some time as the exercises are tiny.
Do give them a try:- freecodecamp.org/learn/javascript-...
No matter how much time the excercises take I usually do it on my own coz that is the only way I can improve on logic.
(I start googling if it doesn't come to me after more than 5 hrs or a day though)
I hope both of us and others reading this as well manage to pull through... ❤️️
Thank you so much for sharing those resources with me!
Don't sell yourself short about "somehow" getting into the bootcamp! You were able to create a JavaScript project and be accepted into a web dev bootcamp. Try not to stress about being so behind, I've come to find out that I have a delayed response, haha! Something I learned 2-3 months ago is finally making sense to me NOW.
If we stick with it I know we'll succeed.
