All4good: I want to say that anyone reading this thread should take note of this post. Do not joke with this post. It's very deep. It is after 10 years of experience you will start realizing the meaning of this post. However, going by the present Nigeria, if you graduate even with a third class in engineering, pick up programing. The rate you will catch up and beat 20 years experienced programmers without engineering background will surprise you. If I was looking for a programmer today, you get my attention as soon as I saw engineering as your major. Even it is polythecnic or technical college. All I want to see is that you put in Calculus, Algebra, Statistics, Circuits, Thermodynamics, Tension and Forces, Fluid, etc in your brain. Those topics are spices that will "ginger" your brain to function in an exponential degree when it comes to logic and designing. Electrical Engineering students have that advantage as circuits is logic. System engineering too has got so much binary codes in it too. Computer science students who joined designing team always go the engineering route. Engineering is a degree for any smart guy anyday anytime, even it is aeronautic engineering, just do it. I am telling you that the way such brains work is different. 3 Likes |

tensazangetsu20:Just seeing your thread. I agree that anyone who says web development is over saturated is not saying the truth. However, there are several "jam jam" web developers out there these days. And it is why web development jobs have filled Fiverr. This is a signal it is getting too popular. You cracked me with your question. Bro, the rate web development is going, high school students will start picking it up soon. Mark my words, it will soon be a major subjects in high schools. Even, more apps will come in and will start taking over jobs. Most especially, I see frontend codes may be done by everyone like using MSWord. Might be, database and backend will be more relevant soon. I see Java still very relevant. But html maybe something even high school students will pick up very soon. When the whole world will have access to the internet, trust me, we'll be doing frontend like MsWord. Lol. Apps will come out. This is what we will do at the time. In Nigeria, there is no job at all. This is the problem. But with computer science, you are finished in Nigeria. Thank God for remote jobs which gives peanuts. Anyone can learn programming, even an Igbo language degree holder. However, if you study engineering, you still have hope of getting jobs in Nigeria. And listen to me, Nigeria is waiting for power to start functioning well. As soon as this is done, the first set of people who will get jobs are engineers. No country can do without engineers. And they will earn more money than programmers when look into the total dished out cash as salaries to both industries. However, programmers who are smart will top the salary scale list. Even as at this moment, the likes of Dangote employs more engineers. His refiery will employ more engineers too. I guess you arent in engineering, so you dont know. But basically speaking, there is no job at all in Nigeria. We are just smart set of people and we are tough. This is why we always find a way around everything. This is where Nigeria is different from Haiti. I dont know....I really think Haitians arent that smart in my opinion. What Nigerians are passing through is too much, yet, we are still standing. Even you as a person...OP, you deserve a standing ovation. I tell you. Nigerian case is not about saturation of jobs in any industry, but there is no job. Even the president said it happily recently while using it to threaten protesters. The man called Buhari doesnt understand the joke is on him. And I think he is beginning to feel it too cos I heard him say history should be fair to him. History can never be fair to Buhari. Never. A failure two times is a permanent failure. The same way he took away jobs in 1983 to 85 is what he is doing again. I mean....sir, no job at all in Nigeria. So the issue of saturation does not come in here. Well, let us just be grateful to OBJ for giving us mobile communication. My only thing about him is that he was too relaxed and didnt get power right. If he had gotten power right, we wouldn't be where we are today. Nigeria will be better. The dividend of mobile communication is what we are enjoying. When I first picked Java, if was just in books, and laptop was so expensive then also. All these free camps weren't there. For where? And I didnt enjoy it at all. I had to leave it and moved to something else. Now imagine NITEL (Maybe you dont even know who is NITEL ) was still in charge. O boy! I believe you still experienced NEPA climbing ladder to cut off electric lines.....that's how NITEL people did in those days too. And if dem cut am...you were in soup. To find your cable....na wahala. While tracing yours, they cut several others unknowing...the whole connection was rubbish. So, virtually every week, we all used to report to their offices for complains. Just know that as your line was restored, another person was about to cut it off. You may be on an important call and that's it. Till 2 month before you could get online again. And after you complained, it may last even a day to even listen to you. Lol. We just kept praying no one complained in our areas. And then, they brought so called digital lines then. Lol. A beg, make a leave the long story. You are all lucky. I mean, you young generations are so lucky. What we passed through, you guys aren't facing anything today. I am telling you the truth. With GSM, internet came into play. Then, the likes of Mike Adenuga came on board. So, as it is, you made sense in that programming is a good way to get jobs. But really, it seems you know about programming only. Do you know the amount of cash people generate with crypto and forex trading? Of course people lose too. Also, do you know the amount of money people generate writing - copyrighting and content writing? All dividends of what OBJ did. Do you know how ladies are hustling on Twitter selling ladies accessories? Some make more cash than web programmers. Yet, Buhari took this away too. And Malami the attorney general went to court to lie that FG didnt stop Nigerians from using Twitter after their threats and bullying. Web programming is just hustling like the rest. Now, this is the point people who know this thing is trying to make. Let me use writing as an example. An ordinary writer on Fiverr earns 0.01 to 0.05$ per word. But a content writer who knows his stuff earns around 0.3 to 1$ per word. Check the huge difference. 500 words article for a good content writer who knows SEO is around $250 at 0.5 per word. Imagine he gets 500 to 2,000 words article jobs and writes just 2 articles per week - $2,000 per month. That's N990,000. Whereas the one on Fiver takes 0.01 and writes 2,500 words. And writes like every day. Of course, many rejections cos of many mistakes, and the person isn't resting. If he succeeds to submit daily (which is impossible), he gets $700 at the end of the month. Trust me, the articles are rubbish. And he is going to wear out soon, and slides to $100 monthly. Now, apply the same to programming. Though, web programming is still ok, but oga, if care is not taking, most of those doing it will stay in it till the jobs are no more required cos like I said, we will soon start using apps to do most of what web developers are paid for. Now, after all I have written, everyone should start innovating. I think we have discussed this issue. It is good to enter it now that it is still helping, but it will not last forever. Start innovating. And this is where Python which you criticized comes in. Not necessarily you use python, but with what you know, start in innovating. Python just makes life very easy for programmers who are beginners. That's all. Even in Web development, so much to innovate. So, I really think backend is the main area people should be working on more after they are financially stabilized. And I really don't think there are so many fantastic front end opportunities. Goodluck sir! 6 Likes |

tensazangetsu20: Good morning sir, Please can you itemize the udemy courses you used during your learning period? And also the months it took you per course. How many months did you spend overall in your learning process? This will really prepare our minds on how long it will take. You already said that you spent two months in the project you included in your portfolio. Please sir, are you purely front end or back end, full stack or WordPress? Thank you as you reply. 1 Like |

oluwaniyi66:Any html course will do. The problem starts with CSS. I recommend CSS the complete guide by Maxmillian Schwartz. After CSS, I also recommend JavaScript the complete guide by Maxmillian Schwartz. For react, I also recommend react by Maxmillian Schwartz. You would need to buy the react course though. The free one isn't updated and uses class based components. It took me six months from when I started learning to my first job. Well I categorise myself as a platform Developer. I stopped watching tutorials after react and all my further learning has been done by reading docs. 17 Likes 5 Shares |

LikeAking: You could try remote teaching. https://amazingmeroses..com/2021/08/sample-script-for-esl-teaching.html SAMPLE SCRIPT FOR ESL TEACHING INTRODUCTION VIDEO Since the Covid epidemic began, a lot of job seekers have sought remote jobs. Adverts on different professions are all over the place. When applying for a teaching job, especially a remote one, you might be asked to make a short introduction video. It could seem quite daunting, especially, if you are not acquainted with such. It is not difficult. You do not have to be an orator to achieve this. You are not expected to create a script of 1000 words. The length of the video will depend on the number of words. The video is usually between 2 - 5mins, so 200 - 300 words would do. Remember to smile while shooting the video. Don’t be too serious. You do not need to memorise the script. It is supposed to guide you and streamline your script. Here are a few tips to guide you in writing the script. l Introduce yourself. You could begin with a greeting, your name, and what you do. l Talk about your interests. Do not exaggerate or lie to make yourself look good. Your interest could be nature, photography, volunteer work, travel, etc. l Explain why you love teaching. l What students should expect to get from your class. l Convince the students or listener to choose you. Take a look at the example below. Good day, my name is Sean. I reside in Lagos, Nigeria. I am a graduate of English Education. I teach language arts, and I have been a teacher for over six years. I have experience with teaching students in elementary, middle and, high school. I enjoy reading novels and comics. Although I have access to many eBooks, I prefer to get the hard copy, especially the hardcover, which is usually more expensive than the paperback. As an English Language teacher, I teach grammar, reading and comprehension, spelling and research skills, writing and its mechanics, and speech work. I love teaching because it gives me a chance to see how kids see the world. Through language arts and reading lessons, I can share the knowledge I have with students. Teaching is not tiresome. Every class, every class is different despite the routine. I create a conducive atmosphere where students can relate with me comfortably. I love to hear their feedback and questions, and I go out of my way to address their concerns. I had an autistic pupil in my class for a year. It gave me great satisfaction to see him comprehend what was taught, interact with his peers and, become less dependent. I constantly learn from students because learning never stops. Join me on this learning journey. You will be glad to have me as your teacher. Thank you. Take note of the following: l Remember to shoot the video in a bright environment. l Ensure that the camera is stable. l Your background should not be dull but it should not be too colourful so that it does not distract the listener from you. https://amazingmeroses..com/ |

Good evening boss, I always follow your posts and I must say you are really good. I am trying to learn some digital skills now, UI/UX design, animation video and motion graphics specifically. But the thing is I'm very new to design, I don't even have a laptop yet but will surely get one soon. Do you think I'm making the right choice by not starting with Graphics Design? I just developed a liking for UI/UX. Thanks. Other comments from other people will also be appreciated pls. tensazangetsu20: |
