My son thoroughly enjoyed his week long half day Minecraft Mod Developer Part 1 virtual week and wants to book onto Part 2 during his next school holiday. Tutor was excellent. Giving the course 5 stars as all was very good indeed.

When I signed my daughter up for Minecraft Mod Developer 1, I was worried that 3.5 hours would be too long and she'd be bored and restless well before the end of the week. I couldn't have been more wrong! She was completely absorbed for every minute and by day 2 she was asking if she could do Part 2

Alexandra has really enjoyed the camp. She has done various Funtech camps over the years and they are consistently of a very high standard. The camps are very well organised, there is a good ratio of tutor to attendees and the tutors are all very engaging and knowledgeable. We are very impressed wit

My 8yo loves Minecraft but I wanted his screen time to be more productive. This was the ultimate “learn through play” camp for him, and he scored it 20/10!!! I thought 3.5hrs might be too long but if his attention did wander the tutor was great at pulling him back in. We had one incident where he

Felix had a brilliant time on the Minecraft Mod course. He'd never done anything like this before and we were a bit worried that it would be too much for him or not engaging enough to keep him seated but he was up at the crack of dawn every morning raring to go. The course was well structured, a

He learnt a huge amount during the 2 weeks and we will certainly be looking to book future courses. Would 100%

My son really enjoyed the course and made some friends. He made his own text based adventure game and is pretty excited about it. Looking forward to the next course.
Only one minor concern was that he had some connection issues but this was also experienced by others on the course.
FunTech Response
We run rigorous tech checks on both the tutor and student sides.
Sadly, on the day you mention the tutor had lower bandwidth as BT were doing some work on his street.
Apologies for the inconvenience.
That said, we did ensure that all content was covered and to a high standard.
Glad to hear you are looking forward to the next course.
