What do PyGirls say about the program?

Francesca's experience with PyGirls

Francesca is one of the students who have completed the PyGirls course in 2024. Here's what she told us about it:

"I really enjoyed the PyGirls course. It was so cool that we could program a game after every topic! My coach Emma was very kind and patient, so I could easily ask and answer questions in our group. I'm looking forward to continuing next year!"

Martina loves coding and making apps that solve people’s problems. Here’s what her day looks like, now that she’s studying Computer Science.

Isabella's experience with PyGirls

Isabella is one of the students who have completed the PyGirls course in 2025. Here's what she thinks about the course:

"I already learned a lot... how to program variables or create a list in Python. The course motivates you to program on your own and be creative."
