The Email - Avi Flombaum

from The Start Hosted by Patrick Johnson

“Why do we have grades? Why do we have homework?” These are the types of question Avi Flombaum would ask his teachers. He just didn’t buy into the education system and now he’s on a mission to disrupt it with the Flatiron School. Listen in as Avi explains how he landed his first programming gig at 16, became CTO of a tech company a few years after leaving college and started the Flatiron School with a mission to change how people learn to code. Oh yeah and there’s some excellent rants weaved in. Shownotes riverdaley.org City Feet Pedagogy of the Oppressed Designer Pages
