You have a Python-heavy code base. You've just hired experienced developers who don't know Python. You want to empower your new hires learn Python well, but you don't want to drain resources from the rest of your team.
You want your new teammates to become proficient Python developers. If they start writing code in a more Pythonic fashion, it'll shorten the lag time between releases of your code and it'll boost their confidence and allow them to feel like a core part of your team.
When learning a new programming language, we always compare what we're learning to what we already know. Your developers will learn Python from the perspective of an already experienced programming. In the remote training course, Python Basics for JavaScript developers, we embrace that mentality by comparing and contrasting Python to other programming languages we know.
As we learn, we'll anchor our mental model of the Python world with our knowledge of JavaScript, C++, Java, C, or Perl. All new Python knowledge will be re-enforced by comparisons to other familiar languages. We'll discuss what's different, what's the same, and what doesn't work quite the way you might expect.
We'll meet online via video chat, 3 hours every day for 1 week. In between our sessions, your developers will work through many short programming problems, practicing test-first development along the way.
We'll cover:
Between remote training and individual exercises, your developers should expect to make a 20 to 25 hour time commitment during our week of learning together.
This course costs $4,200 for up to 5 students.
However, I only work with teams I'm confident that I can help. So we need to talk first.

“Everyone enjoyed Trey's training. I highly recommend it!”
“If I was learning programming again, I would definitely seek mentorship from Trey.”
I will move at the pace of your developers and we'll go as deep as we need to in each section: we don't stay surface-level, even for introductory material. We'll be diving into very Python-specific features pretty quickly.
I can provide you with my own NDA. I will not sign your NDA without an additional fee.
I'm certain that your developers absolutely can learn Python on their own, but it may take them much more time and they may end up writing Python code that looks like JavaScript. You want your developers to write Python like a native.
No problem. Shoot me an email.
My name is Trey Hunner. I am a director at the Python Software Foundation and a member of the Django Software Foundation.
I have a background in full-stack Django web development and many years of experience in front-end JavaScript development.
My classes are usually slide-free and exercise-heavy. I teach with my hands on the keyboard. We learn by doing, not watching.
I want to help your developers level-up their Python programming skills. Want to talk about whether my remote training course is right for your team?
Can't find a time that works for you? Email me.
Remember that my training is backed by a 100% money back guarantee. If your team is disappointed in my training, I'll refund your money in full.
I'm only available for one to two remote trainings each month. Scheduling is first come, first served and I'm often fully booked two to three months out. The sooner we talk, the sooner I can help your team.
