This week, I interviewed David Rogers, a teacher turned software engineer. He now mentors others and breaks down difficult JS concepts unlike many can.

Maybe you're thinking, "Wait, isn't he like, your competition?"

You'd be right. We both have businesses with the goal of teaching others to code and change careers.

I like when people keep it real and David did not disappoint.

We chat about:

David's not so great experience on the first job

Why mindset is more than a buzzword

The mistakes you should avoid when learning to code
