All Our Testimonials

I benefit from having the ability to ask specific questions as part of the periodic office hours rather than spend hours searching the web and still not really being sure of the answer really important to me. I look forward to these sessions even if I don’t have any specific questions as it is also really helpful to learn from others that attend.

The environment is extremely welcoming, even for very simple questions. The Bamboo Weekly challenges are awesome and I always learn new techniques for organizing and interpreting data.

I signed up for a membership mainly to understand the nuances of Python and Git.

It’s very useful. It’s self-paced and I can choose from a variety of courses. The courses are simple and easy to understand (language and content). The exercises are very helpful. And the fact that Reuven is reachable for any queries is a big plus.

I really enjoyed having access to both the wide selection of courses and Weekly Python Exercises (WPE). For me that was a great combination. The courses are a nice mix of lectures and exercises. But the fact that WPE ties in so nicely with the intro courses I think was a surprise and very helpful. I know a lot of R programmers who are interested in learning Python. I’ve recommended they take the intro course and follow it up with WPE A1.

The benefits have included staying motivated over the weeks and months to stay focused, working on learning every week, and actually doing the exercises in the course so that one can review during the office hours sessions. Felt like you had to do your “homework” so that you could participate in the “class” discussion. Being part of a cohort of fellow learners over several weeks/months creates a deep feeling of belonging and mutual growth, especially for me as a full-time remote worker.

The greatest advantage available through the basic membership alternatives is the interaction available with Reuven through monthly office hours. This is extended in the Pandas bootcamp offering to twice weekly, which allows for more interaction about the topics of the week.

I wondered how much different could another Python subscription be? Would I get value from it or just forget that I’m paying for another subscription?

I’ve gotten tremendous insight into how Python works. A great blend of not just how to do things, but WHY? If you find yourself just trying to get things to work but still wondering why it does, you will find value in it. There are office hours and webinars where you can ask questions and get in-depth responses which help strengthen your foundation. Reuven also brings a lot of (funny) anecdotes from experience as well as many other resources (libraries, useful links, packages) that really help accelerate your fluency in the language.

As a member, I have gained several significant results and benefits that have greatly enhanced my understanding and proficiency in Python programming. The training has provided me with a thorough grasp of why major Python concepts work the way they do.

This deeper insight into the “why” behind Python’s design choices, data structures, and algorithms has enabled me to write more efficient, readable, and maintainable code. This has significantly improved my coding abilities, problem-solving capabilities, and overall confidence as a developer.

I have spent time over the past year or two trying to teach myself Python through books like ‘Python Crash Course’ and ‘Automate the Boring Stuff with Python’. These books helped me set a good base but there have been many topics I was left a bit confused on.

I would highly recommend a LernerPython membership to anyone who is wanting to learn Python or deepen their knowledge of Python. The Intro Courses have helped me tremendously to reinforce prior knowledge and fill in a lot of gaps that I had missed or misunderstood previously. There is an exceptional number of courses you have access to, along with direct access / communication to Reuven himself when needed. The membership is well worth the money.

Weekly challenges enabled my skill set not just to remain sharp and current, but to be extended as well. Many books teach Pandas, but Bamboo Weekly is unique in providing regular exercise and deliberate practice.

I did not use Pandas before Bamboo Weekly for Data Analysis. I found out it is a useful tool for my work with data in many ways. Every week I try to solve tasks on my own and I believe it is a good way to learn new skills with Pandas. Then I compare my work with your results and this is another step I can use to improve my work.

I love Bamboo Weekly! What I most appreciated are Reuven’s voice, the data being accessible, and working through the problem and reading the answer a few days later. It’s been a consistent part of my routine and I recommend it to anyone who works with Python and Data.

I had previously bought three live online courses from Reuven and the cost of the bundle is a real deal.

There are things I knew about that Reuven deals with in his courses. However, having them presented in a structured way is very helpful, especially for stuff I do not often use (like OO Python).

Thank you, Reuven!

I always learn something new, even if it is a topic I have worked with before. I definitely would recommend LernerPython membership. You will get lots of opportunities to practice and work through problems using best practices. The practice is what makes it worth the cost.
