@joshwcomeau.com I'm curious how you go about designing your courses. Did you study education or instructional design? Do you have any resources you'd recommend for others looking to build courses or other educational resources that work for students?

Hey Simeon! So the most valuable thing for me was that I spent a few years teaching at a local coding bootcamp, first as a TA and then as a lead instructor. You learn a lot, trying to teach something to other people in realtime, and seeing them not get it 😂

Helping people learn new programming concepts at a local meetup was one of the reasons I decided to move into DevRel around a decade ago. I really enjoyed that epxerience I just read through the intro of Teaching Tech Together and it looks like exactly the kind of thing I was hoping for. Thank you!
