Male Female

Talking about the challenges that I faced before, it was rather difficult. Maybe I'll tell you about my mini project when I was in 11th grade. It was making an application for my last project at school, and I decided to create a calculator application. At first, I had difficulty with the concept. But by asking the teacher for their opinion, I slowly got the idea to make the calculator. Afterwards, I decided to learn from videos on YouTube, so my programming skills have been improving day by day up to now. Because I am still learning from YouTube videos, I think it has been a really good experience for me. I believe that if I hadn't committed to learning from YouTube, I wouldn't have been able to accomplish the project at that time. Referring to this experience, I think that nothing is impossible, even if you have no experience with it. If you put trust in something that you want to do, I believe nothing will be impossible.
