Each month we showcase a student from one of our Nanodegree programs to show how their Udacity experience has impacted their life. This month, we caught up with Mohammed who is a Full Stack Web Developer, Udacity Web Guru, and freelancer based in Egypt. Mohammed enjoys reading up on the latest trends, playing online games, and watching movies in his free time.
First time I saw Udacity was when I enrolled in One Million Arab Coders program where I learned basics about front end web development. I liked how easy it was to learn from Udacity’s platform and all the support I had from the community manager
Next, I enrolled in the Egypt Future Work is Digital (FWD) program from Egypt Communication Ministry where had experiences learning advanced web development skills from the FWD community and hands-on projects.
Udacity made me a loyal learner and I became a Freelancing Web Guru at Udacity after I finished my last nanodegree.
I can watch lessons anytime and videos are 5-10 minutes at most, not like University lectures. It’s more than 2 hours. With Udacity you have mentors and community to help you if you get stuck.
I enrolled in the Front End Web Developer Nanodegree when I was in my last year of secondary school. When I was in my first year of university, I learned more advanced web development skills and was inspired to be a successful freelancer.
The projects helped me to learn about becoming a developer. This has helped me to gain skills to do freelance work but most importantly I am confident in my ability to do the work no matter what I’m faced with in a project.
The community was very helpful in supporting each other and I put aside time to work on my studies as I knew this was my dream.
Having time for everything while studying and working. The community and mentors helped me and I still have many friends that I met in my programs.
I would remind myself of my dream to become a Front End Web Developer and I motivated myself to do better for my future. This opportunity was good and I didn’t want to fail. It was the start of my career and I had a sense of urgency to get started. My friends would also encourage me and we would help each other with projects.
Yes, this is a great opportunity that Udacity gives students to learn and succeed. You get the help to learn concepts and the projects give you real practice.
Do you best work and enjoy the opportunities along the journey to learn new things to help you in your future career.
In my personal life, it helped me with my time management and helped me to have skills to help my clients and understand their needs.
Mohammed has always dreamt of being a Front End Web Developer and he started his journey online with Udacity. If you want to learn more about this fast growing field, check out Udacity’s Front End Web Developer Nanodegree.
