Hi! I'm Srini. I enjoy teaching and love to help students bring to next level.
Last couple of years, I have released massive amount of course content that has helped students to become web developer. I am glad that my courses has helped many students to build a career in the Web Developer Space.
I also run Bootcamp programs where we lock ourself in the training rooms for 5 days and go thru some serious training to teach students complete Full Stack Web Development.
My formula to teach is very simple:
"You learn by doing and not by watching..."
That is the reason I stress more about exercises, assignments and quiz.
I personally believe if Students come up with the solution to any problem that will help them to remember things for longer time.
I follow a proven and structured method of teaching which can help students to learn any concept 10x times faster.
You will find me teaching in defined outcomes for each section of the course with lots of home work for students to practise..:)
Join me on this passionate and fun journey of learning Web Development!
