I had joined the 2nd cohort at MakerSquare in fall of 2013. Prior to MakerSquare, I had tried…read morelearning Ruby and JS on my own, through countless books and online tutorials. Having completed a few guides, I realized that my ability to learn "how to code" was hindered simply by my style of learning. I love interactive q/a style learning, which is what led me to MakerSquare. Of the different programs out there, the one thing I would urge others to consider is that they place a heavy amount of weight onto prework completed (how much work you've done ahead of time) and community-fit. If you're a solo worker and not a fan of collaborative environments, you may want to consider other programs. Anyways, long story short, I would whole heartedly recommend this program. As classmates, I had former programmers, retail store workers, a professional photographer and even a former elementary teacher. Out of the program, each of the students were working as professional front-end engineers (junior developers) within weeks of graduating. So safe to say, MakerSquare has a great professional network, and they know how to teach code. The classroom environment (the location on Congress ave) was a bit cramped at times. But from what I've heard the class size is now capped at 18, vs. 30 or so when I went through. All the 'issues' I had (space constraints, less than ideal student:instructor ratio, and focus on advanced concepts (algorithms and data structures) has been completely addressed. According to the staff, Cohort 5 is operating on an almost night/day difference of curriculum than what I had. So not only do I give the program 5 stars, I would (and likely will) retake the course to take advantage of their newest curriculum.

In short, I'm very happy! Though I'm not programming on a daily basis, I was able to get into the…read moreSt. Louis startup scene which was my main goal before enrolling at MakerSquare. I've also built a really awesome network of programmers and startup gurus in St. Louis and I believe that's thanks to MakerSquare! :-) I joined in Winter 2013-2014 (Cohort 3 Represent!). My reason for joining originally was not initially to become a software/web developer. Rather, I wanted to be able to communicate better with programmers that I worked with. I wanted to gain better access to the startup network. And most importantly I have a lot of ideas that I wanted to explore on my own - I didn't want to have to rely on finding a developer to build my ideas and turn them into a reality. I came out of the program having learned web-development with a strong emphasis on solid software development skills. Here's what I loved about MakerSquare: Curriculum: I was impressed by how much I learned. I literally had no experience in programming and I can now build web applications that ACTUALLY work. Not just simple interactive sites, but fully dynamic applications that work heavily with javascript on top of a rails framework. Moreover, all of this was taught with a very clear emphasis on test driven development (from the beginning) and solid software development principles. Instructors & Culture: They actually cared about the students and our progress and they were just all-around cool people. The culture at MakerSquare was actually a huge focus in the organization. I think what I loved most was learning how to learn all over again. I gained a new confidence that I've never had. The energy was also great, everyone had awesome ideas - from students to staff. Feedback: I would have liked to have more experience with Ruby and really learning how to code w/algorithms and such vs. w/Rails which is just teaching you the framework. From what I gather, Rails is now being treated as a detail vs. a core of what we learned. When we learned rails, it was about utilizing the framework for its ActiveRecord and quick-to-web functionality. MakerSquare still teaches web development (rails/mvc, http, javascript, etc) but now only after teaching other concepts that are applicable not just to the web, but to all software (test-driven development, SOLID principles, application boundaries, decoupling, databases, interfaces, software architecture, etc). I would have loved a deeper problem-solving skillset through exposure to algorithms. Looks like I was one cohort shy of that. MakerSquare now integrates algorithms and algorithmic thinking from day 1. Finally, MakerSquare was split into two nearby locations (Congress & Brazos). The extra space was nice, but it felt disconnected and I think it kept our cohort from being as close as some other cohorts have been.

Like many others, I spent most of my life looking for answers. By the time I found MMS I was…read morepractically manic with frustration, but after a near-death experience in November I was more committed than ever to find, "The Thing". As others have said, you feel it as soon as you walk in. The air has a different quality. It's heavier, peaceful and quiet. It's a feeling of home. I don't have any life-changing results from life activation to share because I was already undergoing the first initiation a few days later and am preparing to receive my second at the International location in May. It was just clear from the beginning I'd found what I was looking for. I've experienced all kinds of new spiritual sensations and am no longer allowing anyone to treat me with less respect and dignity than we all deserve. It's not a sunshine and roses new age all is love parade. All the fun new experiences come along with challenges to your ego, the deep work of trauma resolution and confronting your resistance. The community is very supportive and I've found great likeminded folks who will objectively talk about their struggles and allow you to express your doubts without calling your faith or commitment into question. They ALLOW YOU TO BE HUMAN, while encouraging you to continue to strive for more clarity, healing and magickal hygiene.

I highly recommend all of the classes and healings I've tried from The Modern Mystery School! Tien…read moreBui is one of the practitioners here. She is really sweet, compassionate, and a great listener. I definitely suggest starting with the Life Activation session. My anxiety decreased so much after this healing. I also started enjoying life so much more after feeling very lost. I also took Empower Thyself Initiation, which is a two-day class that Tien teaches. It totally changed my life. I received rituals and meditation techniques that I use daily. It has really helped me to step into my own power and stop living life for other people. I'm so much happier now! I now have tools to protect my own energy, which used to be a drain as someone who is quite empathic. I can stay positive on a daily basis so much more easily! If you're seeking more meaning to life or healing, this is an excellent place to look!

I have been going to get plants at Clifton for over a year now. I won't go anywhere else... EVER…read more The plants here are amazing, well-cared for and the place is gorgeous. Clayton is helpful, is willing to spend as much time as you need teaching you about how to care for your plant and will even teach you how to "splice" them correctly to grow more! Because this is a school for kiddos who might not obtain employment otherwise, you not only leave here with a super awesome assortment of plants at AMAZING prices, you leave here knowing you're supporting a really great program and a super wonderful group of kids that are so proud of their work! Clayton's students can even help with landscaping! Go, do the right thing, get a great deal and leave with a smile on your face that comes, not only from the tremendous amount of money left over in your pocket from the purchase of gorgeous plant life, but from the really awesome thing you just did for a group that truly deserves a "great job" or "thank you so much!" and a chance that might not be given otherwise.

He never thinks any question is a dumb question and that's a big plus because I had a LOT of them lol. He tries to make sure that every student's concerns are addressed and that's what separates him from the others. He really cares about you; it was a fun class. Sure I only passed with a 78 on my first try but hey, I did pass. A license is a license. I give 10 stars and highly recommend. (Oh yeah, he provides great snacks for his classroom trainings ) Thanks again for everything Joseph. You're the best. I highly recommend.

I got a 50, so I started watching the videos and reading the material. After going to Joe's class (first day), I scored a 71 on the practice test. Remember, you need a 70 to pass the state exam. After the second class, I scored an 80 on the practice test. Yesterday, I took my exam and scored an 81 . . . I passed! If you are thinking about signing up, I highly recommend the online and classroom training. Joe offers a money-back guarantee so if you fail you get a full refund. He provides A LOT of insight and solid information to guarantee your success. Best of luck!!
