Hi, my son (8 yo) seems interested in computers but had no real experience in coding/designing etc. I have heard excellent reccomendations about tour classes.
Is there anything starting in the coming period where he could be exposed to the basics in a fun, creative, playful way?
Thanks so much,
Dana
Hi Dana: Great to hear about your son’s interest in coding and designing. We are hosting programs during the May 2017 school vacation and also a 10-week course (weekly lessons) beginning after the May holiday He is welcome to attend Kind regards!
