As I stepped foot into the funtech camp, I was surrounded by an air of curiosity and a thirst for knowledge. Through intense but engaging methods, I was inducted into the wonderful word of hacking (although was warned with extreme severity that I would only use these skills in an ethical and considerate -as well as under permission- way).

AMAZING FUNTECH LESSON

I HAD SOOOOO MUCH FUN I LOVED IT SO MUCH FUN I LOVED IT!

gud

luved it

Cyber Security Northwood

I enjoyed the course thoroughly and the Kahoots were very fun. This course slowly introduced the art of hacking and went from creating folders to using John the Ripper to hydra and everything in between. Overall, I found the entire course very fun and educational.

From simply navigating the linux terminal to full on cracking passwords, this was an amazing course. Every lesson was thorough with information and the tutors were immensely helpful. At some points, the course was very challenging but the walkthroughs helped that, and overall I found the whole thing definitely worth it!

Really rewarding

Our son loved this course, it really piques their interest in how networks and interactions work. Hopefully he won't be on the FBIs most wanted list now. In all seriousness though, he really wants to come back and loved interacting with the other kids, thanks for all the 1:1 support!

Review - Hackathon (Ethical Hacking) Course, FunTech

The rating speaks for itself - this course was worth everything that was done to make it happen.

The "Hackathon" course focused on the use of Kali Linux, an operating system used by hackers worldwide, and was introduced to students like myself. The first-rate program taught myself and my colleagues how to use this tool to think and operate like a real hacker. The perfectly paced learning, the humorous atmosphere, the useful help of the teachers, all contributed to make this course instructive while having fun at the same time.

The main highlight of this course was when we got the chance to break into web servers, by brute forcing the credentials and altering cookie settings to reach and end goal on the web pages.

I would recommend this course to anyone who is curious about hacking, a term heard on a daily basis, and what some of the processes of hacking really look like.

Good course. (Hackathon)

It was an excellent course with intriguing ideas. We used Kali (Linux) operating system to hack into many servers. It was very fun and it taught me to implement many new devices in cybersecurity and to protect mine and other people's computers.

Thrilling!

Great.

Good stuff

i found the course very helpful in trying to learn how to hack. I learnt a lot during this course and found it really enjoyable.

Great Week!

This is my daughter's second Funtech residential and she is planning her third! She thoroughly enjoyed herself, the course seems perfectly tailored to the right balance of learning and downtime.

A phenomenal week

We were looking for a tech oriented summer camp and came across Funtech's offering. We were intrigued by the hackathlon which seemed to align with our son's inclinations. We decided to give it a try, not sure if the level would be adequate nor if the overarching experience would be worth organising an international journey.
We were blown away. The whole thing is beautifully organised, the location is superb, the instructors extremely competent and going to a great length to ensure that kids leared and had fun.
Our son was so enthusiastic that he is already asking to go back next year. Rarely we had such an all-great feedback from him. He is thrilled, and so we are.
Well done, thank you.

Excellent stuff all-round - with engaging, exciting tutors - and appropriately designed interactive course content to complement. FunTech provided all of the required equipment for the course - with everything we needed to get started pre-setup before we arrived.

You can expect:
- A teaching style quite different from that in the classroom
- Productive learning environment
- Tutors who can connect well to you (many being at university)
- Opportunity to connect with others

If you feel a little put off by the vague course description - rest assured - there's plenty of content - "fundamentals" on a different level. When you're not learning, you'll be doing something else productive with your fellow students - plenty of students in my class decided to create their own (successful!) viruses. Brilliant evening activities and food at Tonbridge. There's something for everyone - you've just got to be engaged.

You'll also be able to meet quite a lot of new people - from all kinds of ages. Other than the course content, it's a chance to learn more about others - especially for residential students.

If you've got remotely any kind of attention span at all, this course will make you happy. I wouldn't be writing such a long review otherwise.

P.S. FunTech do accept childcare vouchers, if that makes a diffference.

Outside the lesson was also very fun as it included fun games such as capture the flag and cross the channel (bulldog). Overall this week has been great!!!

Joe and the Sams are cool.

Learning about BEEF was so much fun, and now I know how to hack people's computers :D

Hackathon

Hackathon was fun and it was interesting to learn and to hack into computers. I enjoyed the camp and would reccommend it.

My 15 year old wasn't sure what he had been signed up to on the cybersecurity day camp but really enjoyed his week and proclaimed it to have "absolutely flown by" and been "much better than I thought it would be". He learnt lots, made friends and it has helped him firm up his education choices for his future. His tutor was engaging, relatable and taught him a lot. Thoroughly recommended.

Very fun and interesting week, learnt a lot and had fun with tutors and other students. Well-structured day due to the frequent breaks and long lunch, the course was interesting and useful and there were very few technical issues. Day 5 was the best day because I got to put to use all of the skills and techniques I had learnt during the first four days and it felt satisfying when I completed each task.

Big thanks to my tutor Hibah for being kind, understanding and knowledgeable.

Would definitely recommend and 100% worth the money.

A good camp

This was really fun and I enjoyed learning all the Linux commands and using them to hack into multiple servers. I recommend this camp to everyone interested in cyber-security.

Amazing Week!

I found the Hackathon (Cyber Security) Camp amazing. I had so much fun, while also learning a lot about ethical hacking.

I would definitely recommend this camp!

My time at FunTech was amazing. The tutor teaching the hackathon was great. We had so much fun hacking, we learnt a lot about stuff such as FTP (File Transfer Protocol) and HTTP (Hyper-Text Transfer Protocol). We even made some jokes about TPG (The Password Game). I learnt a lot about Linux and found out how to do things I would have never even dreamed of doing. This course was amazing and I really recommend you do this, especially if you have prior coding experience. The camp had a lot of funny moments and I really enjoyed it.

Great club!

I’ve come here 3 times, and every time it gets better. I’d definitely recommend coming, because it taught me (and my friends) how to code properly. The staff are really nice too.

SO FUN! Definately worth it!

I had so much fun and learned so much more about coding this week; the teachers were so helpful! Thank you!

hackathon camp

I think that the class I did was very interesting and I learnt a lot from the teachers.

Funtech was fun

Overall hackathon was very good and when I didn’t understand the teachers explained it to me. I would definitely come to funtech again!!

best program

one of the best class I've had in my life
