“Stand-up”

As mentioned before you and your mentors gonna have a meeting every single day, so-called stand-ups. In otder to make it as close to a regular stand-up as possible at least once or twice per week the standup will be in english.

What can you expect?

• discussing your questions
• demoing your status
• code-review with focus on code quality
• all questions should be prepared for the stand-up

Learning = making mistakes

We want to say this loud and clear, learning programming is a process of making mistakes and learning from them. Do NOT get discouraged when you can't solve a challenge.

No programmer learned programming without making every single mistake that you will make. This is not motivational, this is a FACT.

One more tip: you cannot learn programming in 1 day or 1 week. In fact, sleep is an important process in learning programming as it helps you persist the knowledge that you acquired.
