Thozama's Story I have always loved the internet, technology and all things digital. As a result, I have always wanted to learn more about how they actually work behind the scenes, for us users to experience it the way that we do. That is how I then learned about how webpages, apps, etc come about, and then coding and programming languages. What I know so far, I have found fascinating, and I am enthusiastic to dive deeper and learn even more.

🙋‍♀️ Thozama's Motivation

The course structure and curriculum, and the support offered by SheCodes has been praised by people I know, people who are also in software engineering and other jobs that require coding, as the best they have experienced and studied with. I know that learning through SheCodes will give me a solid foundation when it comes to my journey of learning how to code as a beginner. I am looking to fully transition into tech as I am currently feeling unfulfilled with what I do, and would like to eventually help other young people also realise their tech dreams once I'm in the industry. I would also like to be able to pass on my coding skills to children and people from disadvantaged communities in my home country. Lastly, I would like to be a part of the future that is digital and that is why I would like to learn how to code.

🤹‍♀️ Thozama's Hobbies

I like reading books, especially African literature. I like watching documentaries based on important historical events and anything else really. I love trying out new restaurants, alone or with friends and also traveling. I also like theme parks, even though I haven't been to a lot. I also like learning new things and making new discoveries.

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.
