Coen de Groot

I am an independent Python trainer and developer with decades' coding experience. On my LinkedIn profile I describe myself like this:

I am a snake wrestler, taming Python to my will, writing code which delivers. A snake charmer, revealing this elegant creature, delivering Python training.

I have worked with startups in the renewable energy sector, on a charity's website supporting their multi-million pound fundraising campaign, the data pipeline of an innovative entertainment venue, a consumer website for expecting parents, and many others. I teach Python to developers from across the world in large corporations, government organisations and ambitious start ups.

As an introvert I can isolate and concentrate for hours and days writing complex code. And I have well developed social and communication skills. Trained as a personal and business coach, I have chaired six conferences, have written many articles, and have recorded five 90-minute training videos.
