Tech bootcamps &amp; influencer courses promise you to teach innovative content, when in reality, they are just regurgitating material that's freely available on the internet.<h2 class="rich-heading">However, self-learning isn't easy.</h2>Most learners struggle with accountability + motivation + need someone for doubt-solving.So the ideal bootcamp should be:<h2 class="rich-heading">Structured Program + Free resources + accountability partners</h2>We carefully study a bootcamp/influncer course and provide a free/affordable alternative using MOOCs (online courses, books...).

You now understand what exactly you want to study + how long it will take to finish."Lets study the course Python for Everybody on Coursera. I'm from Mumbai, India, and I'm looking for study partners in the timezone (UTC+5:30). I'm fluent in Hindi language. I have 2 years of experience in C++, so I understand the fundamentals of programming. Happy to host the group and contribute." is a great post.Moocable gets rid of this vagueness, and pushes learners to post clear and precise goals
