"I had never tried to learn code before out of fear that I wasn’t ‘techy enough’ and probably not smart enough – I was a Mathlete, but I spent most of my time making doodles with the DRAW function of my TI89. Every time I finish a Code School lesson, I feel like I prove that fear wrong. I truly appreciate you making an accessible resource."
