FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Our programs are designed for ages 5 and above, including adults. We start at age 7 on laptops because reading and typing skills are needed in many of our programs. Before the age of 7, we use apps like Scratch Jr to introduce kids to computational thinking.​ ​ While we began only teaching children, our programs are not limited by age. Adults who want to learn Chess or Digital Arts or Game Development are certainly welcome to participate in lesson format.

We think that it's never too early to learn once kids start reading! Before reading skills, there are useful apps like Scratch Jr that can introduce kids to coding concepts. Coding teaches critical thinking and problem-solving, which are valuable no matter your age. Even if students do not pursue programming as a career in their future, the ability to create something out of nothing is fun and empowering. Similarly, it's never too late to start coding and anyone may wish they started earlier in life, but the important thing is just to start and get exposure!

Yes we do! Adults are eligible to enroll in private lessons on topics such as Blender or Python. Please contact us with our Contact Form with a specific request! We would be happy to teach tech and empower adults!
