Mitchell’s Answer
I' m learning Python on https://pythoninstitute.org/ and I'm loving it. Plus at the end, you can pay to take a certification exam and pad your future job applications. They have a few certs and will guide you through the whole process and they get very deep, but they're presented in a really clear and concise way. Plus you can run code straight from your web browser!
Check out https://pythoninstitute.org/

Akshat’s Answer
Hi Nancy, I would say don't overwhelm yourself. Start with very basic Udemy. Spend about $10 a course and start there. See in which area of coding you develop your interest. Then decide more courses there or you can go to some of the other options which can be specific to your interest.

Krishna’s Answer
I recommend taking courses from udemy.com or courser.org as others have suggested. They are very affordable $10-$20 and well put together.
I would also like to add that taking a course that is geared towards a certification may be very helpful when you are starting your career, for two reasons.
#1. When you are studying for a certification you will delve it to topics that you may not find interesting at first, but nonetheless are foundational for future learning.
#2. It will help you stand out with prospective employers.
Also, if you have time, look for free online courses available at reputable universities and organizations, such as MIT, etc.

Hi Nancy,
I am in school for software programming and I love using Code Academy https://www.codecademy.com/ It is free and very explanatory so I highly suggest it. Another great option you can do from your smart phone is the application SoloLearn. They have so many different apps for learning code: HTML, Java, C++, python etc. I use that when I need to learn/study on the go. I hope this helps!!

Peter’s Answer
Hi Nancy - there are a lot of great (and free) learn-how-to-code online platforms out there. The first question you should ask is what areas are you most interested in. For general coding, my go-to website is https://www.katacoda.com/. For low-code learning platforms, Salesforce online learning is a good starting point: https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/home. If you are into mobile (IoS or Android) coding, a great learning website is: https://www.raywenderlich.com/ios or https://www.raywenderlich.com/android. Good luck and hope this helps!

Check out SoloLearn.com.
They have self-paced lessons on several different languages. There is also a "social media" aspect to the platform that allows you to connect with other individuals learning as well.

I find MIT OCW(https://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm) very useful. It has courses delivered by one of the best faculty in computer science. The assignments and projects are the way for you to apply the knowledge learned in the lectures. Extend that further by going in the reading list and learning more.
Give it a try. Hope it helps!

I am actually taking classes on Udemy. I really like them. The classes are well put together and very detailed. I think my entire bundle costs $12 too. So it is very cheap.
