What We Teach

Our coding modules are constantly updated and include languages such as Processing (Java), Python, HTML, CSS, Javascript, Scratch and others. Students will follow our 10-grade Pathway to Computer Science Program.


Online Zoom Classes

Learn to code from home (or anywhere!). Our online coding camps & classes are seamlessly delivered via Zoom meaning you can join our classes from wherever you have a pc/laptop and a good internet connection.


CODING FOR KIDS (7-13)

Our younger students (7-11) will work primarily with Scratch, a block based programming language that is perfect for beginner/younger coders. Junior students (11-13) will dive straight into Java programming through a framework called ‘Processing’. Students will create digital projects, games, & much more!


CODING FOR TEENS (13-18)

coding for teens

Our senior (13+) coding classes are the best place for teens to hone their coding skills using ‘Processing’. Whether you’re a total beginner, a returning student looking to take your skills to the next level, or a student looking to do a third-level computer science course, our expert tutors will cater for all of this and more.
