Olesya's Story It was 6 months ago. I came across the video about coding on YouTube. I was surprised as I was never interested in the IT sphere. In that video I saw all the advantages and drawbacks of coding, learnt some interesting facts about it, gained some information about the popularity of jobs linked with it. From that time I fell in love with coding and decided to learn it one day. I searched for some courses, but their price was not affordable enough for me. Few days ago I received a link with your program from my friend. I was so surprised that this course is for free. What I mean is, all the jobs based on coding are pretty well-paid and getting knowledge of such sphere for free first seemed to me impossible. To be honest, I have a lot of friends, who work as programmers. As I heard it from them, the profession itself is quite various and interesting. Hopefully it is truly like this.

🙋‍♀️ Olesya's Motivation

First of all, I want to change a career and work remotely, since it would be more comfortable for me. I will be able to spend more time with my family and have some free time for myself. Coding is definitely something for me. It is challenging and diverse, that’s why I would really want to learn it. Besides, I am interested in finding out something new and relevant in today’s world. Coding skills will be definitely required for many years. SheCodes is a nice opportunity to learn a new profession. Moreover, I can get some skills for self-improvement. In today’s situation in my country it is difficult for me to broaden my mind, since almost everything is closed. That is why I feel lack of information. I am a quite determined person, so even if coding turns out being very difficult, I will not be less motivated to learn it.

🤹‍♀️ Olesya's Hobbies

I like being with my family. Most of the time we try to stay active and improve our skills. We’d visited different events every weekend before the war started. I do my best to show my kid an example of a productive and successful adult. For that reason we also read a lot together and share the things we’ve got from those books. Mostly I read business and psychological literature. I am also quite keen on singing, knitting and cooking. That is very relaxing, so I do that mainly in the evening.

The Delac Foundation Mission

Women hold only 25% of coding jobs and earn 30% less than men. In many developing countries, over 65% of women lack bank accounts, making it difficult to invest in their education.

The Delac Foundation is changing that. We provide women in developing countries with free coding education, equipping them with the skills to build a better future. In partnership with SheCodes, we offer training in product development, design, and management, empowering women to thrive in the tech industry.
