Teach what you Learn

Hi there 👋🏽

I hope you’re having a great weekend…

Welcome to the third issue of the Kolade Dev Digest newsletter. I would like to thank my new subscribers for subscribing to this newsletter.

And to my existing subscribers, thank you once more for joining me in the journey of creating for you.

Here’s a reminder that one of the best, (if not the best) ways to learn and retain what you learn is to teach others. When you teach what you learn to others, it’s a win-win situation: you learn more, and your student learn too.

Last week, I was totally embroiled in doing my part to make sure freeCodeCamp is better for everyone. Yes! I work at freeCodeCamp.

I’m also working hard on improving the UX of my blog and publishing an article at least once a week.

I also have a news: this newsletter is now a weekly newsletter, not biweekly. So stay tuned for what I have to share every Sunday.
