What I want?

A mentor who is an experienced web developer with a side-project that I can help with.

Why a mentor?

I think the best way to accelerate my learning. I am learning through freeCodeCamp mostly and although I'm happy with my progress, I feel I am lacking any training on a few essential skills to properly perform at a job, namely: working in a team, practical collaboration through git/github, feedback on comments, how to create code that fits well with code from other people on a bigger project, how to read and understand other people's code.

Why a side-project?

I know a mentor could just give guidance, but to dig deeper in the semantics here I want a mentor that also is a coach that also is a boss. As mentioned above I also would like to have hands-on experience with a real life project. And, by my understanding, this project being a side-project means more room for experimentation (like experimenting having a mentee helping out), less pressure for results (as in $ results), fewer people involved in any decision process (from having a mentee to deciding what task to pass to the mentee).

Why me?

I think I can genuinely help. I believe I am smart and I am working hard to learn everything I need to be effective. Currently, that just englobes HTML+CSS+JS. You can learn more about my code checking my freeCodeCamp history (https://www.freecodecamp.com/deltasoneca). I also have some experience as a generalist digital marketer. You can read about that at my LinkedIn (https://br.linkedin.com/in/rodrigohgpontes). So I can help with good input on your marketing/growth strategy and help with execution.

But at the end, you have to primordially want to be a mentor. To teach, guide and manage a junior developer. I expect no payment, but I do expect patience.
