I personally have no experience in programming, and attempts to start ended when watching videos for the level of dummies. And now another opportunity has appeared on the horizon in the form of Tomorrow school, where you can grow up to June's level from scratch during the program. I submitted an application and went into standby mode.

Alhamdulilah, the notification of the transition to the next stage came, and I moved from Kokshetau to Astana.

This time, my task was not just to "start learning the programming language", but to personally fool around with testing the Peer to peer approach.

My first day at Tomorrow School started with an immersion in the platform itself, learning the basics of working with git and the first steps in bash. Unlike traditional teaching methods, the P2P approach immediately created an atmosphere where it was important not only to learn by yourself, but also to interact with other participants. For me, as an extrovert, this environment turned out to be very comfortable and natural.

What really surprised me was the variety of participants, aged from 18 to 40+ years. Despite the fact that some already had solid hard skills (mostly IT students or guys from Alem school), the atmosphere remained friendly, and each other's help and support came first. No one felt "superfluous" or "not good enough" — everyone found their place and role in this learning ecosystem, already in the first days of training.

Another important point was the infrastructure, the latest iMacs, the opportunity to live in a colliving for nonresident students, gives an understanding of the level of support measures provided.

Nevertheless, I hope that this opportunity will not be centralized in one city. For Alem S. and Tomorrow S. are based in Astana. I hope that the regions will also be equipped with this program/platform based on regional it hubs
