Becoming a Talent in Software Development
It is well known, that a good software developer is, among other things, someone who is capable to learn new technologies on his own. In order to maintain the learning capabilities we have in software development, it is a must to continue learning new technologies, such as new programming languages, new frameworks, and new libraries.

The Importance of Age in Software Development
Unlike many other domains, in software development, it is relatively easy to identify whether the software developer properly does his work or not. The relatively high salaries in software development are the result of the difficulties to find and hire software developers.

The shift was very fast. As a result, it became difficult to find experienced front end developers. This shortcut was an […]
Learning The Programming Language First
You cannot learn properly how to use a specific library or a specific framework without mastering the programming language for which the library or the framework was developed for. You cannot learn how to develop web applications using Angular without learning properly TypeScript in advanced (for those who don’t know, software development with Angular is […]
The First Programming Language
I teach academic courses for nearly 25 years. During those years many of my colleagues have approached me asking which programming language do I recommend for beginners to start with. My answer usually was that it is more important to ask what are the theoretical topics that will be taught than which tool (meaning, the […]
Capturing Lectures on Video
When listening to a lecture about a specific topic in software development, the smallest detail you miss can ruin the understanding of the entire topic. Capturing on video each and every lecture allows the students to listen again and again (in their free time between meetings) to the specific relevant parts. Having the lectures captured […]

Delivering professional training using the reverse learning methodology means that the students learn the topics they expect to cover in the coming meeting in advance, and during the meeting itself most of the time is dedicated to explaining the more difficult sub-topics, answering questions the student come with and practice. Given that we already have […]
