Teaching Programming the Way You Actually Learn
We started Logicalneuronnet because traditional programming education felt disconnected from how people really absorb new skills. Our approach focuses on building understanding through practice, not memorization.
How We Got Here
Every good education company has a story about recognizing a problem and working to solve it. Ours started with watching talented people struggle through programming courses that didn't match their learning style.
The Problem Becomes Clear
After years of watching students drop out of traditional programming bootcamps, we realized the issue wasn't intelligence or motivation. Most courses were designed by people who learned to code years ago, often forgetting what it felt like to be completely new to programming concepts.
Testing New Approaches
We began experimenting with different teaching methods in small groups. Instead of starting with abstract concepts, we had students build simple projects from day one. The difference in engagement and retention was immediately noticeable.
Formal Program Launch
After refining our methods with over 200 students in pilot programs, we launched our structured curriculum. The focus remained on learning through building, with theory introduced naturally as students encountered real problems they needed to solve.
Continuous Improvement
Today we work with students across Taiwan, constantly updating our approach based on feedback and industry changes. Programming languages evolve, but the way people learn complex skills remains surprisingly consistent.
What Guides Our Teaching
These aren't corporate buzzwords – they're the principles that shape every decision we make about curriculum and student experience.
Start with Building
Students create their first working program in the first session. Theory comes later, when it makes sense in context. This approach keeps motivation high and makes abstract concepts concrete.
Embrace Mistakes
Debugging is where real learning happens. We teach students to see errors as information, not failures. Every programmer spends more time fixing code than writing it initially.
Individual Progress
Some students grasp loops quickly but struggle with functions. Others master object-oriented concepts but need more time with basic syntax. We adjust pace and focus areas accordingly.
Practical Skills
Every topic connects to real programming work. Students learn version control, testing, and code organization alongside language syntax. These skills matter as much as knowing how to write functions.
Our Learning Process in Practice
Instead of spending weeks on syntax before touching a keyboard, students write their first program in the opening session. This isn't a "Hello World" exercise – it's a simple but functional application that does something useful.
From there, we introduce new concepts when students actually need them to solve problems or build features. Variables make sense when you need to store user input. Functions become necessary when you're repeating the same code. Objects click when you're managing complex data.
- Project-based learning from session one
- Theory introduced when contextually relevant
- Regular code reviews and collaborative problem solving
- Individual mentoring for specific challenges
- Real-world tools and development environments
- Industry best practices integrated throughout
This approach takes longer than cramming syntax, but students retain more and develop better programming habits. They also build a portfolio of working projects rather than a collection of theoretical exercises.
Meet Our Founder
Every education company reflects the experience and philosophy of its founders. Here's the person behind Logicalneuronnet's approach to teaching programming.
Astrid Lindberg
Astrid spent eight years as a software developer before transitioning to education. Her frustration with traditional programming courses came from watching colleagues struggle to onboard new team members who had completed intensive bootcamps but couldn't debug simple problems or understand existing codebases.
She discovered that students who learned through building projects first developed better problem-solving skills and adapted more quickly to different programming languages and frameworks. This insight became the foundation for Logicalneuronnet's curriculum approach.
