“The wind can bend a willow.But it can't break it.”

Short, clear video lessons for learning new skills from zero. First up: Python, HTML and SQL.

How it works

No experience needed. If you can follow a recipe, you can follow these.

Watch a lesson
Each video explains one idea in plain words, usually in under ten minutes.
Try it yourself
Every lesson ends with something small to practice. Doing it yourself is where it sticks.
Come back tomorrow
Small steps, every day. A few minutes daily beats a long session once in a while.

Every track starts from zero. Each one grows a new strand with every lesson we publish.
