Cyber Security- Hackathon

Sam and Beatriz were absolutely amazing tutors who made the experience a lot better however the course wasn't for me, the residential was not suitable, the evening activities was underwhelming and it wasn't catered for the older students who wanted to relax at night and not necessarily watch Sponge

Sam and Beatriz were absolutely amazing tutors who made the experience a lot better however the course wasn't for me, the residential was not suitable, the evening activities was underwhelming and it wasn't catered for the older students who wanted to relax at night and not necessarily watch SpongeBob or other kids shows and be kept downstairs until 21:00.

This funtech camp is extremely good

whilst in the camp I thought there was a good balance between learning new things and fun challenges to solidify your understanding of the topic, and also my teacher Sam was exceptional at teaching. Also the residential place that we stayed at was very big and the rooms are very nice.

Great camp.

As the last day of the week of the camp, I loved doing the project which was fun and challenging which helped me alot

Amazing

I really enjoyed it and definitely recommend this course to those of all ages, and will surely be garuanteed a great experience.

I had fun(tech). i loved learning how to crack password hashes and getting usernames without entering the virtual machine (computer). it was my favourite course yet. if i could i would rate it 15/10

My funtech experience

My experience at this camp was amazing! I can see why it is called FUNtech. I really enjoyed using our ip addresses to message ourselves from different servers and learning the features of cowsay.

This course has taught me so much about cyber security and I can definitely take this further if I want to, which I really do. The day is well structured and the material taught is very thorough and informational. There is lots f information to absorb but my teacher gave me a cheat sheet to take with all the commands on, this really helped. The only improvement I have is to increase the number of tutors on a course. I only had one and this was a problem at times when everybody needed help on different things. I would highly recommend Funtech and this course to anyone. This was not my last time here, for sure!

funtech review

pros: great teacher (very patient) interesting topic, and lots of linux skills learnt.

cons: annoying kids in the class and in the break room , needed more managing.(2 break rooms) Computers could be ridiculously slow at times, otherwise the course was great.

I learnt a lot in this course!

This course was very good in my opinion. I've been able to learn the basics of how to hack and what cybersecurity is. On some days it got quite intense and we sometimes ran into errors but in the end we managed to complete every exercise. The teacher was also very polite and was able to teach thing

Last day at Funtech

I think I really enjoyed the coding camp. I was able to learn new things abut hacking and maintaining high security on a computer. Although, it was a rough start for me because I am quite unexperienced with coding, I was able to learn new commands that I could easily remember.

Mostly good

The camp was super fun.
The tutorial videos were a bit lagy though and for the metasploit exercises it didn't specify what we had to do which made our teacher very confused and frustrated. Overall great camp.

Excellent!

Overall, I really enjoyed the camp. Despite not being here one of the days, I was able to catch up quickly. Everyone was very nice, and it was an all around great experience.

I had a very enjoyable experience. I completed the residential hackathon course and it was really worth while. We learnt about the Linux operating system, ad the basics of its operations. I learnt a lot and hope to use my newly learned knowledge later on in life.

I have to say the entertainment and social side of the course wasn't completely tailored for slightly older kids 14-16, but I did make friends and thoroughly enjoyed the time. Tutors were FAB!.

Once again I recommend this course, for the experience gained along with the course learning.

Hackathon Week

This week has been a very good one, and it went too quick! We have learnt so many skills from this course that will allow us to be able to bring this knowledge into the future, and possibly take work with these skills. One suggestion I would like to make would be to have an OnBoard subscription thingy for the hackathon, so that could allow students to be able to practice these skills and make them better than before. However the week in general has been really good, and I want to do this again at some point! If you have any more complex courses, please do let me know :)

The course was challenging but at the same time very rewarding for when you were able to solve the problems.

Funtech camp- review

This week was great. I learned so much and had great teachers who guided me through my learning. I enjoyed the activities e.g game night, movie night etc.. the reason for this is because it added things to do. In my opinion this was one of the best and most fun camps i've done.

An experience

A nice experience. The classes have been fun and the people very nice. It is true that sometimes it has been a bit difficult for me to follow but in my opinion it is worth it, I have learned a lot.

Brilliant!

I really enjoyed this week of Hackathon in FunTech! It was a great experience, as I have not done anything like it before! I learned new terminology and interesting ways to hack into other virtual machines. The tutors of this course were great, helping whenever possible, and overall it was a great experience! The only downside were the physical laptops, which some were slow. Apart from that however, I would give five out of five stars for this course!

Great time.

I had a great time and made some great friends. My only gripe is not with my experience but this very website. I am trans as such you have Addison as my preferred name on your profile you have (known as Addison) in brackets then my legal name. then a separate place for my preferred name. I feel this is just a bit unnecessary. As you can easily just put a section saying "legal name" then "preferred name" .

This camp has been a very enjoyable experience and I have learnt a lot about hacking. We had a very good instructor, Max, and we learnt about a lot about computing and how hackers are able to perform the actions they do. We learnt about different protocols and ways to make malicious code that can be used to hack into different devices. I also had fun at break and lunch times, where we played card games and Jenga and played outdoor games at lunch such as Bulldog and Capture the Flag. I would definitely come again.

Funtech camp 2022

I had a lot of fun at FunTech.
I learnt a lot of coding and tools on the software and I have taken lots of notes.
I also had a lot of fun with my peers and other people at the camp.
Overall, it was a really great experience and I look forward to using the skills that I have learnt in the future!

CyberSecurity course was very good

The Funtech course was both informative and fun. I learned many Unix terminal commands and how to use hacking tools. This course could help to get skills for a job or increase the security of a home computer

It is very fun and interesting.

It was very interesting learning about cyber security and different ways to hack into machines and websites. It also teaches how to not get hacked yourself .

Cyber Security

It was interesting and informative. Sometimes the days can feel long but it is fun.

Meh

It was alright! very tiring and I had to take a LOT of breaks throughout but I think I learned something. Thanks a lot FunTech!

My days at funtech

This is a very good camp and i have learn a lot of things. Hacking is really fun especially learning with my peers. I have made many friendships and they have made this camp even better. Learning hacking teaches me a lot of things about all the commands that you can use.

This course was very enjoyable and we learnt a wide range of skills from password cracking to hacking websites and servers. The environment was relaxed and friendly and we had a lot of freedom. However, it may be helpful to know that the course is largely based on Linux, and the devices and websites we hacked had outdated operating systems and code, meaning they were far more vulnerable than websites and devices today.
Overall, I enjoyed this course and learnt a lot, I believe it is certainly worth trying.

Educational, relaxed, and overall very fun. Covers a decent range of topics from social engineering to password-cracking.

Educational, relaxed, and overall very fun. Covers a decent range of topics from social engineering to password-cracking. The one flaw with this course, in my eyes, is the fact that it is very Linux-based. The systems you use and hack are all running on (mostly outdated) Linux operating systems, which are much more vulnerable than modern Windows or Mac systems. This in mind, it is still certainly worth the 4 stars I give it.
