Finding the right mentor and then convincing him/her to help you or train you is a very tedious task.

MentorIF is a platform for all. One can real-time chat with experts of choice and get help from them. One can easily get trained by these mentors/experts.

Talking to mentors and getting your queries answered is completely free. One can register and talk to mentors. You can subscribe to training hosted by mentors/experts. Any specific training-related requirements you can share directly with mentors. In case a mentor is not active, you can share your requirements on the support email or phone number.

Mentors can help you with career progression, skill development, and job/internship, etc. related requirements. However, you are free to connect with industry experts/mentors to build your niche network.

Java Training For Beginners

Advanced Java Programming Training

I am a tech guy with 13 years of experience. My primary programming language is Java. I worked with product and service-based companies. I have 2 kids and my elder son is a college-going teenager.

When I look back into my journey, I could see the hardship, sweat, sleepless nights working for client deliverables, etc. One day, my son expressed interest in learning programming. I was surprisingly happy that even after seeing me and my life he is thinking of getting into this tech space. I suggested he do the same as millions of others do, Google, watch videos, and learn.

After a few weeks, I asked him about the progress. In case he has any questions or doubts that I can address. He said he watched a few YouTube videos and read a few blogs as well. He acted like it was very easy and he understood everything on the first try.

When I cross-questioned him on the basic concepts, he was clueless. Then I decided to spend 1 hour every day teaching him actual programming. Soon after 2 months, he was not only creating programs but started solving my job problems with his algorithm.

I was a proud dad. Then I realized having information in hand in the form of videos and blogs won’t solve 100% of the problem. I also took many references from online resources. But what made a difference in my son's case was having me as a mentor and trainer.

Then I thought of other people having the same situation. Jumping from one online resource to another and by the end saying I know everything, it is very easy. So, I decided to jump in and help. I came up with 2 pieces of training (links mentioned above). Interested people feel free to subscribe. It is completely online live training.
