Mate Academy or self-study?

Question

IT education

Good afternoon, maybe someone studied at the Mate Academy courses? Everywhere I read only positive reviews, on Google, FB, DOU, etc. Can't everything be so perfect? :) the payment system and the lack of information about the course materials are very confusing. On the other hand, you can start your studies without money, and this is already a nice plus. Although in the end you overpay, because throughout the year 17% of the salary is deducted.

Answer 1

I only read positive reviews everywhere.

100% bots. Positive feedback on the service - an extreme rarity in principle.
Poor office, no one has the right to calculate a percentage of the salary, this is already a scam.

Answer 2

It is interesting that flattering reviews were left by those who have only one answer on this wonderful site))) Think for yourself, any courses want to steal money from you, these same ones offer you an installment plan for 2 years at their percentage. I liked their test tasks, in some places you need to google to solve. Far from all of them will pull and those stories about successful success about tractor cooks who became fronts are all just stories,) there the guys are being selected and the more knowledge, experience, English you have, the more interesting you are for them, because their task is like sell you as soon as possible and make a profit within 2 years. I know a dude that he took their front-line courses and works as a layout designer .. I noticed several times that negative reviews about them are deleted. It's neither good nor bad, it's business.

Answer 3

Courses are not required.

Answer 4

What is your opinion about these resources?

Answer 5

Hello everyone.
I would like to share my best experience with Mate, and the resultant performance (since the day after the end of the Front-end course, I took the offer off). I will add that after that, as you have power over the work, you will continue your practice: you can teach English courses and whether or not there are other available courses in Mate.
Like more, I'm skeptical about the cursives, thinking chi varto, and shukav minusi, why don't you try the mother's “widmazka”. But all the same, I vyrivishiv risky, so as I knew that it’s necessary to study 10-12 months on a juna independently for 10-12 months (and it’s all good in you because of self-discipline, and you don’t throw everything on a drinking path). And in Mate, if you hesitate in yourself, you just can’t get it, you will be helped by mentors on regular calls, and coordinators will please.
So from, at a rate of 17% per cent. I don’t doubt that it’s varto, so 83% of the RFP on robots is right for you, it’s definitely shorter than 100% on robots, it’s not right.
It is possible to enroll in the course effectively, start from 0, if you have learned motivation effectively, then 2-3 days is enough to reach the necessary level, pass the test and the interview (on what basis and the insurance of the stage of passing the mate, - choose people I really want to and I’m ready to learn, because the course itself is satisfied with the amount, and I need all my time and effort to invest in learning).
The program is quite intensive, but it’s more structured, and even though you don’t understand, I still take the mentor’s lead. And now I’m going to work on the process, I’ll also coordinate, help and guide you, what and how to work correctly.
In conclusion, I’ll say that I’m thinking of boules at the skin one, but definitely try it out and take the opportunity to become a good specialist, do a robot like you should.
And on the hat-rahunok-negative comments are everywhere, there is no sense to comment here)

Answer 6

Hey, I decided to write my review after 4 months of training in mate on the frontend, because. I remember how I myself read the reviews that were left here and only drew some conclusions for myself on them) I remember that I hesitated for a long time whether to go or not to go, and suddenly some kind of deception or something, but how do you understand all this in vain) The training took place in a very intensive form, 5 days a week I got up, hawal, and sat down to teach the frontend, passed out in the evening, got up in the morning and in a circle) for the weekend I just turned off and tried not to approach the computer at all, there must be some rest from such intensity! As a result, I regretted only one thing, that I didn’t go here earlier, I thought about 4 months before entering yet) I think it will be difficult to combine with work, so I need some kind of reserve for at least 4 months to have something to live on) I am a student, at a distance, so he lived with his parents, well, at their expense. First there will be a qualifying round, not difficult, but you will have to learn something new, so it will take some time. Then a month of layout, a month of jsa, a month of react, and finally, job searches! It was difficult, a lot of test, failed interviews, rejections, etc. and here I think somehow you need to let it all go through yourself, set yourself some kind of goal, I had 10 test ones for this goal, for example, and go strictly to it and prepare in advance for failures) at about the 10th interview, when already in my opinion, I clicked them like seeds, they took me. It was the day before the end of the course, which made me very happy. Now I work, and to all my friends who study at universities in those specialties, I advise mate, because. I see no other alternative and I think that this is the case when your life can change dramatically in a very short period of time. If it weren’t for Mate, I don’t know where I would get this motivation, discipline and perseverance in order to master such voluminous material) Thank you Mate for being you

Answer 7

Hello! I want to leave my feedback of gratitude to Mate!
With the beginning of quarantine, I was left without a job and with a profession that no one needs in the conditions of closed borders - I am a tourism manager by education, I have 10 years of work experience)) But to sit and just wait for everything to get better someday is not about me, so I began to look for a new area of ​​work. I accidentally got into a week-long layout marathon - I really liked it, before that I had no idea how websites are written and how it all works) I began to consider options for further education, I was advised a course at Mate, the selection for which was just ending. At the last moment, I managed to register for the JS course, started training without even thinking about what I could do, because. I didn't know what Javascript was before. In two weeks I went through a preparatory course, successfully passed the test, then the interview - I didn’t believe until the last that I would pass, because. I’ve read reviews here that many people do it already with the experience of self-study or other courses, but my technical background was 0. But everything worked out! Thank you Mate for believing in me!
Then there were three months of very intensive and very interesting training. Thanks to all the team for your support! Special thanks to Misha - I already miss our morning classes, thanks to mentors Vova, Kolya, Denis, Ira, who had the patience for my stupid questions and non-standard solutions)) Thanks to Nadia for help with preparation for employment and support! Thanks to our whole group - it was great to study with you! Thanks to those who received the offer first and inspired the rest! All success in work!
So, thanks to Mate from absolute 0, after three months of training, after a week of looking for a job, I was invited to the company of my dreams. Or rather, I did not even dream that I would receive a response to my resume from this company and did not believe my ears when they called me back and invited me for an interview)) not to mention its successful completion) I have been working successfully for two months now!
Mate is a real chance to change your life if you really want it! Studying will require maximum time and effort from you, but the result is worth it!

Answer 8

My path called "entering IT" began long before entering the Mate academy. My first step 2 years ago was evening courses, after which I did not find a job.
After a while, I realized that, unfortunately, it was money thrown away, since the courses gave me only a meager base, which is freely available on the Internet.
Now, as a graduate of Mate academy and the owner of an offer, I can say for sure what an important role the learning process itself plays and how information is presented to students.
I really liked the well-coordinated approach of Mate academy in terms of full information support and assistance in any matters, from mastering the material to finding a job.
After these courses, I feel much more confident in my abilities as a developer, and most importantly, I got an incentive to develop and know where to go next.
I want to highlight the main advantages of the Mate academy courses:
1. Full time training (full involvement), which allows you to develop self-discipline and organization, as well as fully assimilate all the material in the learning process.
2. Regular testing of theoretical knowledge and practical skills at every stage of the learning process, full support from the team.
3. Payment for courses only after employment. Thus, the team forms competitive developers from graduates, and is also fully interested in their employment, providing all the necessary conditions for this.
In general, I want to thank the team for your work! This brought me closer to my goal))) I wish you prosperity and success!

Answer 9

If the question is courses or independently, as for me, the answer depends on the personal level of laziness and the amount of time for which you want to get a job.
In favor of the courses, I can say that this is a time saver - they will tell you how to cut corners, how to apply, how to interview and immediately collect for you the database of information that you need to know in order to start working. There is a group of fellow students with whom you consult, exchange information and, in principle, moral support. I also want to constantly push myself to be at the level or cooler than the others.
Well, as for me, the main thing - I, for example, am lazy and when I applied for a job myself - then this is a maximum of one or three resumes per month, slowly do a test task or even score and write my own pet project further) In Mate I I felt like I was letting myself down if I didn't get the job first. I got it, I work in the British company selectspecs, we draw a new site for the sale of glasses for them, everything is cool)

Answer 10

I want to share my opinion about these courses and additionally tell them how to pay less for higher courses))
So, briefly about my anger after two years of work from that moment, how to finish them. We are glad to see that we have learned from them. To that, if I’m solving problems on robots and conducting interviews, it’s clear that there is a great difference between self-taught people and people from other platforms and courses and our students. The main responsibility is to solve the problem, not just to write code.
About fears, a contract with tsim courses and vіdsotki. After that, as if having left their opinions, talking to people, they want to start working in IT and think about Mate academy. I more food will be falling, so there will be no problems with the contract and the course of that and similar praise. May I ask you what is the best option, about which I know at once from the choice of cursives.
І for the rest, how can you save money and pay less for your exchange rate.
Tse vlasne їhnya cool referral program.
Troch more details about her.
It is necessary to register with a referral letter, I attach it below.
There are two options in the program, to take 1000 hryvnias after a cob of fulltime training.
І another option, to take a 10% discount after paying for the evening training.
In this option, I will deduct 10% from the rate of your paid courses. I give you 3% of them. So in sum you can take a 13% reduction from the sum paid by you.
Axis, well, send me - mate.academy/?code=30268
If you want to know more about the course, let me know about the referral program, the axis of my contacts is [email protected] and
[phone] those who stink!

Answer 11

Hello everyone, I will tell you about my experience at MA, it is definitely worth it if you yourself cannot force yourself to sit and study every day or it seems to you that it is very difficult.

Answer 12

I read several reviews of offended guys who were not taken to school - well, as if everything is clear with them) many people will be angry and upset when they don’t get to them)) as for me, I doubted for a long time (the conditions and a large number of positive reviews frightened ). But I have never regretted that I did. the knowledge and skills that the team gives opened up the opportunity for me to get a long-awaited offer in a design studio, from which I received a crushing refusal half a year ago (while studying on my own). and please note (out of 4 months, I received an offer in the third month of study, a week after the start of the job search). But he didn’t fly to me for beautiful eyes)) I put a lot of effort during training, sometimes I stayed up until late at night, gave all the best for 200% when completing tests sent by companies, and so on. If you have any questions, please contact me via linkedin (Albina Sobol). I will gladly answer EVERYTHING! At a minimum, it shows that I'm not a bot (as some write here). Mate - thank you for being there❤️ I don't know about other courses, but UI/UX is the best people you can meet.

Answer 13

Hello! Graduated from QA course at Mate. How was it? Well...
I got it the first time. Learn a lot - first a lecture, then practice, then learn theory, then additional courses, and more English. Mentors really have a desire to teach. If something doesn’t work out, they don’t leave you yourself, but they help you until you succeed, and they also rejoice at your success.
Thanks to mentor Yaroslav for lectures, mentors Igor, Sasha, Tanya, Nastya for patience)
I became close to the team and now I can’t imagine the beginning of a new week without meeting with them.
I completed the QA course at Mate and even before the end of the course I found a job in a cool company.
Thank you for helping and believing in me!

Answer 14

I was looking for courses for about six months, choosing and reading a lot of reviews. Before that, I already had experience in graphic design. My environment is quite filled with specialists who work in IT, and at that time some also helped with advice and even brought me up to date a little, for example, they joined the testing group. I listened to everything that could be useful on Youtube. and the moment came when I could no longer be at my previous job, but I did not want to go anywhere. I decided that the full-time courses at Mate Academy, about which I immediately read that it would not work to combine them with work, are for me. By the time I applied, I also knew about the 17% payout within two years, and read the reviews of those who passed and found a job thanks to the diligence and organization of the educational process at Mate. And I understood that I wanted to go specifically to ui / ux design. even despite the fact that, as a rule, there are much fewer vacancies in the design than in the same Testing. The course before the entrance exams was very cool - it already gives a cool explanation of the program, practice and at this moment the future student can understand it or not. That is, those who want to merge do not risk anything at all. I passed the introductory course, passed the entrance exam, received an invitation to the course, signed the contract - and it started)) The coolest thing is the people! Communication in the group, mentors - Nastya, Anush, Vlad, our Krutetskaya curator Masha, The coolest lecturer in life - Zhenya - everything is very friendly, everything is about support, there is no atmosphere of competition within the group, everyone works only on growing himself above himself yesterday. And it really works! It seemed like those three months were long, but now, when my training ended due to a joyful event - an offer, it seems that these three months have flown by, and the hardwork mode is now behind. The training is really reinforced, you won’t be able to play the fool, but it really comes to me. I wanted to strengthen myself as a professional, it was important for me to feel not a fool at work, among colleagues and even among friends - cool IT specialists. Therefore, even now, when I can no longer go to lectures and mornings, I continue to study (I do practical tasks, watch webinars), there is no way to get into IT without it. Mate gives access to all course materials and other specialties, English can be attended even after graduation. Everything is really arranged super-awesome, and those who are looking for an opportunity to develop themselves - get it in Mate. it seems that these three months have not happened - they have flown by, and the hardwork mode is now behind us.

Answer 15

"It's interesting that all the flattering reviews are left only by those who have only one answer on this wonderful site," wrote BOT, and left HIS FIRST, AND ALSO FATTORY, comment on this wonderful site. (c)
When you see this, there is not even a doubt that this very "philanthropic" PSEUDO academy is the most natural SCAM, with paid comments on numerous Internet resources. Apparently, they pumped a lot of dough out of their "students". =))
And yes - THANK YOU, bots with one comment on the site!)) I came here from a Google search specifically to find out the truth, whether this "philanthropic" office should be trusted. And it was YOU, my dear ones, who helped me make the RIGHT CHOICE.)

2 years ago, if you had read this thread before, you would have your own doubts, like a skin one. And yet another Mate zatsіkaviv, skіlki stench called out to doviru and virіshiv for myself, I want to read here. Well, I’m not sorry, I’m writing this essay after the canceled offer and maybe 4 months of training, and I’m more than happy Mate for the price. I’ve been practicing since 2 months and having deprive you of your opinion as a confirmation.
Tse do not take the course, children pay the same amount of money and pay you, but let it be stacked up. Mate to do everything you can to reach the goal set before the courses. There is no sense to list all the pluses, you will find the shards of them here in other comments. But subjectively, I took away not just those that I thought about, but much more: the material is richer, but the wines are served sequentially and structured, so, you will have to pay attention before night, but you will get the result sooner. І smut - practice, її even richer and on the skin topic є zavdannya. And if you don’t understand, you will be helped by vikladach and mentor. Wait, so you can collapse much faster, but if you yourself vchish and don’t know what to do)
And also - help in training, if you help close your skills in the knowledge of the way of advanced technical checks, explain how to better communicate with recruiters and really pump your skills into someone directly!
And also - English, just sign up and watch the lessons, and you will be a new rіven!
And also - community, if you come to the rescue, if you get stuck.
And yet - the atmosphere is friendly, as if you are familiar from the first day, ready to come to the rescue at any moment and support, if you just don’t let the hour grow up and you continue to develop bool)).
Don't be so proactive and if you want to show off your life with the help of design or design - go to Mate and work it out! I've been robbed, having lost the unrealistically pleased and unrealistically vdyachny Mate for the price)
So, until my first appointment is here, but don't stop. And to blame the power supply - write, for the joy of it all)

Answer 17

Hello everyone, I decided to leave a few words here as well)
Let me start by saying that I learned about Mate a year ago when I was looking for programming courses, because after self-curious study of layout and JS, I clearly lacked knowledge, and evening programming courses did not give anything but money thrown away. Until this spring, I still had the hope of finding a job in my specialty, and I did find it and was safely fired at the beginning of quarantine. This was the last straw and I decided that I urgently needed to change my life. It was then that I remembered about Mate, where I successfully entered at the end of spring.
Yes, I had a lot of doubts, and I was not completely sure that all this was real, BUT all doubts disappeared as soon as I saw this large community of motivated and purposeful people. Then 3 months of daily study began and, first of all, work on oneself. Courses do not just teach technology, they teach, first of all, to think and find solutions, accustom to discipline, a normal daily routine. All this is not even close to self-study. The program is as well thought out and well structured as possible, and most importantly, there are tasks for absolutely every topic, many tasks, very many, and all are aimed at understanding and consolidating the theory passed. Constant technical checks, phone calls, English classes, help in preparing a resume - all this in total gives the very desired result - a job. No other course will give you so much knowledge,
To be honest, even while attending the courses, I did not believe until the very end that finding a job was real. And now it's time to serve..my first test, after it the first social security..and...OH GODS, OFFER!! Now I have been successfully working in the same company for almost 3 months and have never regretted anything. Courses are definitely worth it to change your life for the better!
I am very grateful to the whole team of Mate for their work and love for their work, and this, believe me, is very felt. Guys, you are the best, and the knowledge you give is priceless. THANK YOU!!!)))

Answer 19

Hello. In fact, I'm currently a student of the mate academy, and until the end of my course, it's about 3 days. Ale! Just past Friday, I took an offer for the position of QA engineer in a cool outsourcing company with a salary twice as big, I got it lower :) I can’t help but feel the negative feedback, only those who didn’t learn to mate ... I’ll tell you about myself - such a mate, that in such a short hour I mastered a new profession and practiced a lot of knowledge. I wouldn’t believe it, what could be real and that I’m already practicing in an absolutely new sphere for me, not knowing either for a century, or for a future (now not aitish) dosvіd. Thanks for the skin lecture, skin homework and skin technical check. Matt is amazing! І price for learning the truth is more lower is true. Even a lot of practice, students are really investing over a lot and freebies, so you just can’t get into it here. I didn't believe it myself, that opinions can only be positive. Ale ni - still can. I am commended for everything, that it is good for graduate students not to fail, that having chosen the academy itself. And I don’t mess up:) such a match for a cool idea, a cool product and I’m cool as a newly-specialist

Answer 20

Hello, I want to share my experience at Mate Academy!
I graduated and a week later received my offer for the position of Frontend Developer from my first technical interview. For this I want to say thanks to the Mate team. Initially, I chose these courses because my friend recommended them to me and I liked that the program lasts only a few months, but you need to study every day for 8 hours. Now, after the end of the program, I can highlight many other positive aspects that help a lot in learning.
1. All the necessary information is well structured and collected in one place, while there are examples of tasks and links to primary sources for a deeper understanding.
2. Every day you can ask questions to mentors or a trainer, who will quickly tell you how to solve the problem and what to look for in order to fill the knowledge gaps.
3. In addition to the Mate team, you constantly communicate with your group. Very often, your classmates can tell you how to solve a problem or explain something.
4. In Mate, you not only learn some technologies, but also learn how to learn (work with documentation, google correctly, communicate with people to solve a problem)
In general, without Mate Academy, I would not have had the motivation and perseverance to learn everything on my own. I am glad that I chose Mate Academy, so I can safely recommend them to anyone who doubts.
PS But you won't be able to "freebie", so that there would be a result you will really need to work very hard and not be lazy :)
