Stop guessing at prompts.
Start building real things with Claude Code.
Experienced developers are 10xing their speed with Claude Code — writing, iterating, failing, and shipping faster than ever before. Learn how to harness this technology with my upcoming hands-on workshops. Solve real problems, evaluate AI output critically, and build skills you can immediately apply to your own projects.
Python Workshop
Monday, March 16
7 PM Israel · 5 PM London • 12 PM Eastern · 9 AM Pacific
Pandas Workshop
Monday, March 23
7 PM Israel · 5 PM London • 12 PM Eastern · 9 AM Pacific
You’ve tried Claude Code. But are you using it well?
You’re comfortable with Python and Pandas, using it on a regular basis at work. And you’ve heard about Claude Code, the AI tool that everyone’s talking about. Maybe you’ve used it a few times. You know it’s powerful. But you also know you’re not getting everything out of it.
You paste in vague prompts and get vague results. You’re not sure when to trust the output and when to push back. You don’t know how to structure a CLAUDE.md file, or when to ask for tests, or how to iterate on a solution that’s 80% right but 20% wrong.
And here’s the real problem: You can’t learn this from documentation. Claude Code is a tool that rewards experience — the kind of experience you get from watching an expert use it, trying it yourself, and comparing your approach to others.
That’s what these workshops are for.
Two workshops. Two skill sets. Real problems.
Workshop 1
Python + Claude Code
Monday, March 16
Exercise 1: Web scraping with Claude Code — extract and structure real data from the web
Exercise 2: Build a FastAPI application — go from zero to working API with AI assistance
Demo: Watch Reuven walk through a complex, real-world project built with Claude Code
Workshop 2
Pandas + Claude Code
Monday, March 23
Exercise 1: Scrape data into a data frame — collect, clean, and structure messy web data
Exercise 2: Build and evaluate an ML model — use sklearn with Claude Code’s assistance
Demo: Watch Reuven walk through a complex, real-world data project built with Claude Code.
This is not a lecture. It’s a workshop.
Every session follows the same proven structure. You’ll get expert instruction, real practice, and the kind of feedback you can’t get from a video course.
Instruction first
Before each exercise, Reuven explains the approach: what to think about, how to structure your prompts, and what a good solution looks like.
You solve it
You work on a real problem using Claude Code. Not a toy example — a genuine challenge that mirrors what you’d encounter at work.
Group code review
After each exercise, participants share their solutions. Reuven pulls up different approaches and discusses what’s interesting about each one.
Expert demo
Watch Reuven tackle a complex, multi-file project with Claude Code — seeing the full process, including the mistakes and corrections.
You’ll come out with new skills.
When you finish with this workshop, you’ll be able to:
• Produce working software — prototypes and production apps — faster
• Direct Claude Code to not just write code, but robust, readable code
• Guide Claude when it gets things wrong
• Iterate through multiple solutions
• Use tokens wisely — and launch multiple sub-agents for parallel work
• Use AI confidently in your everyday work
What participants say
From the first round of workshops, held in February 2026
“Your super power is fast typing, so trainees may see and follow the process of creation in each of its steps, good moves and bad moves, corrections and evolution — that is something that few teachers/trainers may offer.” — Zlatan Soskic · Director of Development
| “Not only did I learn how to better develop AI prompts, I learned how professional software is created.” Michael Dahlberg · Penn State University | “You should join to get the introduction you need in the world of AI in the easiest possible way.” Nenad Rado |
| “I would tell them it’s well worthwhile. Seeing Claude Code in action was very instructive.” David Sperzel | “This is a great place to start trying out AI stuff with a simple coding language.” Workshop participant |
| “The workshop inspired me to continue researching, creating and developing my project.” Zlatan Soskic · Director of Development | “I learned that I wasn’t ‘cheating’ and that I could still become a better software developer while still using AI. This is what I wanted and this is what I came away with.” Michael Dahlberg · Penn State University |
Simple pricing. Serious value.
Each workshop is sold separately. Take one or both.

Your instructor? Reuven Lerner.
30+ years teaching Python. MIT degree. PhD in learning sciences from Northwestern. Author of Python Workout and Pandas Workout (Manning), and the upcoming “AI-Assisted Python for Nonprogrammers” (O’Reilly).
Keynote speaker at PyCon India 2025, speaker for many years at PyCon US and EuroPython.
Reuven has trained Python developers at companies including Apple, Arm, Cisco, Intel, PayPal, Western Digital, and VMware. Over 30,000 developers receive his weekly “Better Developers” Python newsletter, and more than 6,000 read his “Bamboo Weekly” data-analysis puzzles.

Questions you might have
Do I need prior experience with Claude Code?
No. The workshop is designed for Python developers who are new to Claude Code or have used it casually and want to get significantly better. You should be comfortable with Python (or Pandas, for the second workshop) — we’re teaching you Claude Code, not the language itself.
Do I need experience with Python and/or Pandas?
Yes. These workshops are meant for people who have used Python and Pandas, and want to take their skills to the next level, using the power of AI to accelerate their productivity. You don’t have to be an expert coder, but it’ll be important to know about data structures, functions, and objects (for both workshops) and the use of data frames (for the Pandas workshop).
Do I need a Claude subscription?
Yes — you’ll need an active (paid) Claude subscription with access to Claude Code to participate in the exercises. If you’re not sure how to set this up, we’ll send setup instructions before the workshop.
What if I can’t attend live?
Workshops are recorded. All participants get access to the recording. But the real value is in doing the exercises live and participating in the code review — so I strongly encourage attending live if you can.
Are the two workshops related? Do I need to take both?
They’re independent. The Python workshop focuses on web scraping and FastAPI. The Pandas workshop focuses on data wrangling and machine learning. Take one or both depending on your interests.
I attended the first round. Is Round 2 different?
The format has been significantly improved based on participant feedback: more instruction before each exercise, dedicated code review time, and a pre-built demo segment. If you attended Round 1, you’ll find the pacing and structure much better. The exercises may overlap with Round 1 — but with the new format, you’ll get more out of them.
Can I register my team?
Absolutely. For groups of 5 or more, email reuven@lernerpython.com for corporate rates. I also offer private workshops customized for your team’s tech stack — ask me about it.
What time is 7 PM Israel in my time zone?
5 PM UK (GMT) · 12 PM US Eastern · 11 AM US Central · 9 AM US Pacific.
Both workshops start at the same time, and are 3 hours long.
AI is changing how we write Python.
This is how you keep up.
Two live workshops. Real problems. Expert instruction. Code review with other developers. And skills you can use the moment you get back to your own codebase.
