Elahe's Story I was fascinated with computers as a child and dreamed of learning the language of computers. Recently I started a journey of getting to know myself and my passions. I went back to my childhood and tried to remember the things that excited me as a child. I knew that computers were fascinating to me, however I didn't know much about coding. Through research on the internet, I got to know about coding and it said that I can learn it without knowing elaborate math formulas or going to a university, I felt very excited by it. I started trying to learn it by myself, but I felt overwhelmed by the vast amount of information and advice, and don't know where to start. It's like learning Japanese without having a dictionary and not knowing the alphabet. I learnt English through self-study and now I'm learning new languages. But I think I need help to start with coding, and once I took the first step, I can just continue learning on my own.

🙋‍♀️ Elahe's Motivation

I think SheCodes is a very supportive and friendly environment which makes learning a new and exceptional experience for me. Having the support and encouragement of Shecodes is the biggest motivator for me. First heard about SheCodes - It was an advertisement when I was watching a YouTube video.

🤹‍♀️ Elahe's Hobbies

playing the violin, reading novels - currently reading Les Miserables, crocheting/knitting, listening to instrumental music, learning Spanish and Japanese, going for walks, dancing, watching Poirot series by David Suchet, playing Scrabble and chess

SheCodes Foundation Mission

Women currently hold 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less money than men. In most developing countries, more than 65% of women don't have bank accounts and cannot afford to invest in their education. Female refugees also don’t have many opportunities to invest in their education and improve their career horizon - they often work in unskilled, undervalued, and low-paid informal sectors.

SheCodes is here to help provide women in developing countries and women who are refugees with the opportunity to learn how to code for free. SheCodes offers a solid introduction to product development, product design and product management.
