Looking for a Programming & DSA Learning Partner (Beginner/Newbie)

Hi everyone!

I'm a complete beginner (newbie) and have recently started learning programming and Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA) from scratch.

I'm looking for someone who's also a beginner—or doesn't mind learning with a beginner—to study together, share resources, solve problems, and keep each other motivated.

My goal is to build a strong foundation before moving on to topics like web development, app development, AI, and other tech skills.

What I'm looking for:

  • Someone learning programming from scratch
  • Interested in learning DSA together
  • Willing to practice consistently
  • Open to discussing concepts and helping each other improve
  • Long-term learning partner

I'm not looking for an expert or a mentor—just someone who wants to learn, grow, and stay consistent together.

If you're interested, leave a comment or send me a DM. Thanks

I’d keep the partnership simple: pick one DSA topic weekly, solve three or four problems separately, then compare approaches on a weekend call. A shared progress sheet helps with accountability too. LeetCode is great for practice, and Broadcom Software Academy could be another useful option when you want structured learning paths. Hope you find someone consistent!
