You're not the only one who's had enough.
Coding Bootcamp Instructors face unique challenges: 12-week intensive cohort cliff — high engagement, then ghost-town graduation. Job-placement guarantees and refund liability. Cohort vs 1-on-1 pricing (you teach both). Curriculum updates per JS framework cycle (React new patterns every quarter). Adjunct hours plus your own students plus consulting. On top of all that, Acuity Scheduling charges $34/month ($408/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median coding bootcamp instructor earns $42,000/year. Software at $408/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Zoom and breakout room setup for 20-student cohorts is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.
Acuity Scheduling is just one piece. What else are you losing money on?

At 9 I run standup for my cohort, twenty students in week six of twelve: what they shipped, what's blocking them, and who's stuck on the same thing. At 10 I lecture on React hooks, live-coding a component that fetches data with useEffect, and I break it on purpose with a missing dependency array so they can watch the infinite loop and fix it. At noon I hold office hours, and three students have the same bug, a stale closure in a useEffect cleanup, so I screen-share one fix for all of them and write it up for the cohort. At 2 I have a private student in session five of eight, working on a portfolio project; we set up React Router, pull state up into a context, and I have him write a test before he refactors. At 4 I grade yesterday's project submissions from the repos, reading commits and pull requests, checking the tests pass, and leaving line comments on props drilling and missing error handling. At 6 I write tomorrow's lecture on forms and controlled inputs, update the starter repo because the framework changed its recommended setup again, and configure the assignment for the classroom repo. At 8 I have a call with a recent grad prepping for a technical interview, doing a mock whiteboard problem and going over his take-home. Before bed I note which students are falling behind so I can pair them tomorrow, and I invoice the private student for the next block of four sessions.
