Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone on the platform has any experience cultivating a tech community. I tried to follow a format somewhat similar to Peer 2 Peer University Learning Group. Basically you find a MOOC and invite people to come study with you.

Over the summer I created a Javascript learning group where we just followed the FreeCodeCamp curriculum. I'm glad the people showed up consistently but no one retained knowledge of anything from the curriculum. People were just going through the material and they did not know how to apply it to their own projects. I want to try doing it again this summer. I was hoping anyone could give me advice on how to become a better facilitator/teacher? I guess that's what I'm trying to say.
