About This Class

Have you ever thought, "I can't program" ?

I once thought that but I tried making Android Apps anyway. Turns out it was pretty easy and after a few months I became self employed as an App Developer, ramping up my earnings to the tune of $120,000 per year.

Would that amount of money change your life?

Well this Android course is where it starts, but only if you click the ENROLL button. Give it a try, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain!

What will i learn?

I will take you from beginner to COMPLETELY published on the Google Play Store.
There is so much more to Android app development than just plain coding tutorials!
