I'd love to help mentor/coach folks trying to learn programming, and would like to do it over Slack (or something close to it).<p>I'm thinking for others like me would find this to be an extremely convenient way to volunteer. I could set aside an hour, or more, while sitting in front of my computer.<p>Ideally there is already a 'vetted' slack channel where people who needed the help were in need of help ... but not abusing it. I'm thinking of a Slack channel for a non-profit, coding bootcamp. Just to be clear; I'm not looking at making the bootcamp or something like it. I'm looking to just offer my services to the students in a way that works out with my schedule too; it would let me give more time.<p>Anyone seen something like this already that they could recommend?
That's a fantastic idea! Go check out Slack List[0] for a curated list of Slack communities. If you look at the technology communities, I'm sure more than one would be happy to have someone to help people learn.<p>[0] <a href="https://slacklist.info/" rel="nofollow">https://slacklist.info/</a>
