My 7 year old son really enjoyed his first experience of a virtual coding camp. The instructor was excellent - knowledgeable, patient and calm in the face of student WiFi and other technical difficulties! It was great that the class size was small so all students received feedback and assistance quickly. We will definitely do another FunTech course.

It has been a very good experience for my daughter. At the beginning she found the pace a bit difficult but thanks to the support she caught up with the class. We will have another Virtual class soon.
Hope you could start your courses soon in the actual classes.

So I would recommend, thanks and regards

My son who is 8 signed up for the 2 week, 3 hour a day virtual coding camp after a couple of taster sessions. I was amazed at his level of engagement and thrilled to see him on line doing something productive and useful, learning skills that will be invaluable. The facilitator was brilliant at keeping a small class happy and engaged and sat still for the most part, for 3 hours, even more amazing when my son finds it very hard to sit still normally thanks very much - Andrea

This was our second virtual camp and it was amazing as the first one. Again the presenter was knowledgable and friendly and really helped create a great dynamic with the rest of the attendees - it was wonderful for the children to get to engage with each other and discuss their creations and give feedback. The course moved at a good pace and all the processes were well explained. Excellent course!

Two weeks of Scratch

Our son Arthur has just completed two weeks of Scratch, he was just on the wrong side of the age recommendations for the course but as his brother was doing a course and he didn't want to miss out we approached FunTech to see if it was possible.

Our son Arthur has just completed two weeks of Scratch, he was just on the wrong side of the age recommendations for the course but as his brother was doing a course and he didn't want to miss out we approached FunTech to see if it was possible. As with any request we've had with them they were very supportive and confident that one way or another he would be able to do the course.

When it came down to the course he did struggle a bit to start with, not with the content but with his confidence in asking for help which he struggled with as he can be quite shy. FunTech picked up on this immediately and were in constant contact to ensure Arthur didn't get overwhelmed. At the start of the second week he had a second wobble and after discussions they switch Arthur over to 1-2-1 sessions, after this boy did he fly. Both the tutors he had were fantastic, very knowledgable and patient with all of the kids, stepping in when help was needed, guiding when a few social rules weren't being adhered to.

The fact these courses are delivered virtually is a sign of the current times, however I think even if it wasn't the 'new normal' we wouldn't hesitate to do a virtual course if it was continued to be offered. Two weeks of mornings is just about the perfect amount of time. I think in just about every way FunTech have nailed it. Thank You!

Very good course

While Eloy was a bit bored the first 2 days, mainly because he already knew the basics, I mentioned it and the tutor gave him some extra tasks so he then started to enjoy it more and on the last week he loved it so much that he closed the door so we didn’t disturb him while he was thinking.

its very fun and amusing

I LOVE THE CORSE

scratch coding

It was a fantastic experience for my boy age 8 to start with coding, Perhaps the hrs are a bit long for him and he tended to lose focus at the end of the lesson.

children enjoyed it

good course, nice teachers, patient, knowledgeable.

Good experience

My son had good learning experience on developing introductory coding skill through the camp. After the camp, he became able to make a game to play and understand how to apply it for the future project. The trainer was very kind and tenacious to take care of my son. Thank you very much.

Excellent experience

My daughter really enjoyed the Scratch virtual camp. She worked through her little projects under the teacher’s guidance and there are enough breaks in between. She is proud to show me everything she did and looking forward to the next lessons. She still loves scratch after the camp is finished and

My daughter really enjoyed the Scratch virtual camp. She worked through her little projects under the teacher’s guidance and there are enough breaks in between. She is proud to show me everything she did and looking forward to the next lessons. She still loves scratch after the camp is finished and shares her project online with other scratch community members. Highly recommended!

ITS JUST GREAT!

I think Scratch is GREAT !

Thank you very much!

It was fun, I almost had no idea about coding in scratch, but now I know how to make games in scratch!

We learnt about motion, looks, sound, events, control, sensing, operators, data, backgrounds, sprites, costumes and more!

I learnt so much

I really enjoyed the course and learnt lots about coding that i didn't know about. I found when I needed help that the tutor went through it thouroghly until I understood it. Overall the course was really fun and I learnt how to code in scratch and even made my first game

fun and supportive

the courses are fun and the Tutors will always help you when you need.

I liked the course because we learned different things and we had fun with things. I loved how the blocks slotted into each other. I have also learned so much. I enjoyed being friends with the other children. My granny said," It is nice that moose listened to my questions." I liked doing the race and the car drive thing.
Noting I didn't like about the course because it was so fun but I did not like one part where We can not really have fun on the chat. That we are only aloud to tipe questions on the chat.
I would have liked to play football with granny and cross the river with my brother aswell. I would like being in the garden in the sun.
My favourite part was the race and my least favourite part well I did not have one.

FunTech Response
Our students select whether they would like to share their webcams or not and how they ask their questions via voice or chat - sorry not more students wanted to chat.

Safina had a fantastic time doing this course. I was a little unsure at first with her being so young, but to my surprise she was attentive throughout and looked forward to each session. She was excited to share her achievements with me too, which was great. Her tutor was amazing! He was so patient and calm and repeated instructions as many times as needed to ensure each child understood the concepts taught.
We will definitely be signing her up again next year!
