I am currently a first year student at WeThinkCode_, and the community is amazing, I have to agree with on of the reviews below, it is indeed the warmest place to learn, support is everywhere around you.The peer-to-peer learning system is golden to meπ―
One of thee warmest places where peer to peer learning is encouraged/implemented to effect. A free tuition software engineering course, learning how to be a problem solver using the skill of coding, valuable working experience (paid internships). Grow your network and explore; Africaβs Top Tech Talent.
I personally havent been there bt my son was and he say staff very helpful and friendly
Best place to learn programming.
Best place to learn how to code.
A bunch of autodidacts, peer-to-peer learning boffins. May the code be with you all.

A great place to be if you are willing to work hard and as a
Education is revolutionized here. If you want to become a top software developer, come to WeThinkCode_
Never a dull moment at this awesome place.
A free acreditted institution that teaches programming from scratch, for the period of two(2) years that includes internship with big companies.
Impeccable place of learning, quite challenging... But if you make the cut, a very fun/hard institute to learn from
The experience there was amazing
Friendliest staff ever...it was a great experience from start to finish
Excellent Reception but the security guard in ground floor was rude however I proceeded to ask others for direction to where We Think Code_ was. I found a very enthusiastic brother his name is Mlungisi Mpofu he answered all questions i had about the Coding program. Cheered me On. Patient.. didnt mind repeating where Ide been unclear on something relating to the program. I walked out feeling Empowered knowing Ide like to join the Team We Think Code_ enhance myself gain skills Configure Network of friends to be made short term Long Term. Im proud of myself I went over to the office today
We learn, talk and live code#python.
The best experience ever
Great place to learn
As a student here, I have to say this school is incredible. They teach coding in an innovative and brilliant way. I would never have thought I am capable of learning this much. The staff are incredibly passionate about their work and it shows.If you have any interest in learning to code, and a career in coding, for free, this should be your first stop.
Best Software Engineering school. . The method of learning is effective and excellent. Sponsors ready to take you after the course, I mean what more can you ask for if you have a guaranteed job after completing your course ? You can never leave this place without saying you know how to code. This school will teach you how to think bigger, be an excellent researcher, learn quickly and be an effective coder in 2 years. . Best best best school ever !
Great learning space for anyone interested in computer programming
Very exciting place to be and to learn
Wethinkcode is the best thing that has ever happened to South African Tech. Software Engineering for free?, Guaranteed placement after the completion? What else can you ask for?...but one needs a bit of knowledge in programming in order to make it there, or be dedicated enough to teach Yourself.
It was extremely intellectually rewarding; even if you dont have any experience in programming like me, they still give you an opportunity to learn during bootcamp! I wish this opportunity can spread like wild fire so that more people can be part of the digital revolution.
The bootcamp itself was probably the hardest and most rewarding experiences Ive ever had. The work environment truly pushes you to your limit and makes you work harder, with the peer evaluations it is truly a place of each one teach one where we learn from each other and keep on trying our best to do better than the day before. If you work hard here you will truly not regret trying it out for yourself, everything that you learn here is its own reward...
All I can say about this school is that the people are amazing and this is the perfect place to come learn how to code!
Here you dont play the just play the student. You play the student, the teacher, sometimes the genius, and more often than you would expect, the idiot. But its fun, and it quickly makes you aware that you are in control of your own destiny.
Great school. I attend here (2017). Quite intense but you learn a lot. Never do they ask you for your money(Free Education). Its a great way to find yourself in the software engineering sector. If you pass the test on their website and the bootcamp that is.
Best in my lifetime,best school to learn computer programming and web development , it constantly challenges you to grow. And yes it is affordable: IT IS FREE!! YEP F.R.E.E!! :) How awesome is that.
Absolutely fantastic university! Its learning system requires you to work together to solve problems. On top of coding, they also teach you valuable life skills that is important for surviving in a business one day!
What an awesome institution, aimed at helping individuals flourish as amazing developers. Were learning to do incredible things here at WeThinkCode_ and anyone who has an interest in technology and problem solving, shouldnt hesitate to apply. I couldnt be happier that I got accepted to this program. :) :D
Awesome place to learn how to code...best part is that its free to study here. The course is well thought out, its peer-to-peer learning, from a school from France called 42. Really great environment with friendly people always willing to help each other, well done WeThinkCode_ :D
Love the We Think Code_ space. As a wheelchair user Im glad they prioritise accessibility πβΏ
This is probably the coolest place to learn coding in all of South Africa!
Besides the transforming coding and problem solving skills I have gained daily its an environment for self development and realisation. Once youve started with the experience you cant really imagine yourself settling for the ordinary.
The syllabus is designed in such a way that you start your coding journey with the most basic building blocks in C and use those to master concepts and eventually languages. Students are encouraged to play around with skill levels and innovate code by going into real-time challenges in corporate, where you can test your code. Everything depends on peer to peer interaction, you learn from each other and pay it forward.The programme is intellectually challenging and is not for the faint hearted. You need to keep working at finding a solution, no matter how often you fail.The environment is emotionally charged, youll get on peoples nerves and them yours, but youll all end up stronger for it because sooner or later you realise you need each other to make it to the finish line.
Changing the future of education bit by bit and giving those a chance who did not do well in the current education system. At WTC you do not only gain coding skills but are also given tools to thrive in a corporate environment and given the skills to become an entrepreneur.
Amazing π₯π₯π₯
An amazing institution ever, this school unlocks hidden abilities, secret talents and really creates diverse possibilities, for an individual. It breaks boundaries and beyond - and not only in terms of technology, but the work itself and how you really get to connect to people from different backgrounds, basically nothing is impossible, I personally have learned that - Every problem has a solution, be it big or small, if you are willing to give it your all, you will win. And most importantly refusing to be arrogant and willing to work with others as a team, because together we win, Thank you for the experience and really opening my eyes to what I could really do and offer the world out there.. not only is the end of the bootcamp - THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF EVERYTHING, GRATITUDE..
Knowledge that is shared is exceptional for me
The program is great and all but with limited focus (18-35yrs), what about old dogs like us with interests in skills like coding/ingeneering but never get the opportunity to pursue their drive/career path because they dont afford to & when opportunities arise theyre not for all us but for youth, what about us, our dreams dont matter anymore?Questions:-Are we outdated/expired maybe too old to learn?-Is my dream less valuable than that of youngsters?-Are we supposed to focus in digging ranches & packing boxes in some retailers or drive delivery vehicles to survive.-How do you lead by example to exercise that its never too late to learn when were expected pay to get qualification in which are offered for free only because we are old.-What are we not told about our ages dat is so inconvenient?If its possible please make a platform for old folks like me with a never dying ambition/dream to pursue.-I am an idealist with a huge hanger for knowledge of what your program is offering who lacks the developing skill and more for:GamingApp developingOnline marketing & management
One of the best unorthodox schools in South Africa. Offers one of the best software engineering curriculums in the world!
Great place, cool place to study at, and if you dont believe come take look at it.
Very different, and better than anything ive ever done. If you wanna understand programming, you should definitely try it out
A short elevator ride up to the best coding school in South Africa.
The facility is clean and well kept. There is always security personal at the entrance.
Best tech institution in SA and people here are very friendly, anyone who loves programming would enjoy this environment.
Charmingly situated in the Johannesburg CBD stands a great tech institution, providing world class tech education in an environment that feels better than home. Wethinkcode_Everybody here is so nice here! Like Really !
We think code is a wonderful place be at, they unlock your inner potential.
Best place to learn coding trust me you wont regret it :)
Hi, my name is Amos Paunde, I heard about the opportunity that wethinkcode is offering to none metrics, and yet I did apply for it, I started the first test on the 14th December and achieved level 16 and finished test 2 and 3 on the 30th December.While I was playing the second test, achieved level 10 something went wrong I was still left with 15-18min to continue playing but I was banished from the game. The message was βgame overβ and it took me to the main page, I tried to sign out and signed in but was saying the same thing. And what is more funny is that it did not even write the date and the time that I played test 2, but the first test was detailed. I tried to play the third one and also finished up at level 10 and yet also wasnβt showing the date and the time played. And from there I knew that something wasnβt right.I got an email from wethinkcode saying βmy application was successful and that I had to be checking my emails to know if I qualifyβ. The following morning on the 31st December I got a message saying that I did not make it!My question isnβt was supposed to know if am I qualified or disqualified in January?And what is the team response for what happened to me while playing the game?
One of the best schools ever :-D, you learn so much with the challenges/projects that are given to you on a daily basis
This is the best engineering institute in Africa so if you want to learn how to code then you need not look any further
Its a free institution that accessible to many because its in the cbd
Great ideology behind We Think Code_. Here no one can (nor will) spoon feed you the work, you need to put in the time and effort to improve. Based on peer to peer correction you and fellow peers correct each other and learn from one another in a way that could be amazing if you do effort to understand the work. Again the experience you will get from We Think Code_ is a direct equivalent to how much effort you put into it.EDIT: 2 years heading on 3 at WeThinkCode_. The way WTC_ has degraded over the past 2 years is shocking. You send emails trying to clarify details on requirements and get a response after 10 days if you are lucky. The specs to graduate are continuously changing and there is no clear communication about what you should be doing in order to stay in the clear. After 2 years of study you only receive accreditation for 1 years study. I would suggest that anyone who thinks about joining WTC should really reevaluate their other options. I am sad to say that the journey that I started with so much excitement ended with me regretting the choice.
Go to NYC for the Statue of Liberty; to Egypt for Pyramids, to Paris for Eiffel Tower and to WTC for the code. Because the code is to WTC as fat rats are to Alexandra; completely unchallenged.
Love this place... the people and the staff. This place will not only change the way you see coding and coders but will change the way you see the world.
A fantastic, friendly and technologically advanced school for people with passion and tenacity to learn Software Development, regardless of their background.
