The course provides the attendees with a basic overview of Java, using a procedural programming style.

The course was well run, with a good pace through the week and my daughter enjoyed it a lot and learned about Java. There was some interaction between the participants and the tutor seemed to be friendly and experienced.

My only slight negative comment is that I think the content of the course could be more ambitous given it is 5 days long. It seems quite odd to teach Java and not introduce classes (or in Java 14 records). Java is an object-oriented language and so classes and objects are central to understanding and using it. If the attendees have done any Python, a lot of the content of the course is very familiar, they're just changing syntax so I would think that classes could be introduced gently on day 2 or 3 without overwhelming the students.

All in all though, a good use of my daughter's week which she enjoyed.

Java coder

Yousef has learnt many new things on this course.
There was no assessment at the end to see what he's absorbed or notes taken to ensure that he doesn't forget them.
I know the teacher asked them to take notes but he didn't follow up to see that they did.

Thank you for the virtual Java course: our son was enthusiastic throughout the week, learned a lot and was eager to share his projects with us. Given that I required individual support sessions to pre-install the required software I was very grateful for your exceptional care and service. When our internet connectivity let us down one day during the course, your representative followed up with a call and offered an extra one-on-one time for our son to catch up on the missed learning the very next day, which I believe goes above and beyond a usual level of support. We were big fans of Funtech residential camps before the lockdown, but having tried the virtual camp now, I can hundred percent recommend it to any parent!

Very fun and informative.

I learned alot on this course, and the tutor was very helpful. The instructions for setting up the coding environment and the meeting was very easy. I would definitely recommend for anyone who wants to learn the basics of Java, or just wants to code their own thing.

I quite enjoyed it overall, (besides my technical issues and having to use the virtual stuff) and I recommend this course to people who want to learn java (not with the pandemic either), I loved how it was almost a non-virtual course, and how a lot came out of it! It was a great 5 days, and I managed to get most of it done. :D

The camp was very fun and the extra 15-60 mins was great and helped me very much !

very fun!

I really liked this camp! i learned a lot and had a lot of fun!

I am delightfully delighted

I would like to thank all the funtech people for letting me have such an enjoyable experience. This coarse will help me improve for my GSCE and i can be much better. When i started, two weeks ago, i was very bad at java. I had never done it before and it helped me a lot. I have done a coarse in funtech for python before and it was also good. I hopefully to do more fun tech in he future because this one was very enjoyable. Thank you to all the people in funtech. I also had a very nice teacher who helped my improve my java skills. He was very nice and very helpful and i think he should teach everyone because he i the best teacher in funtech because he taught me a lot of good java skills. I hope the java coarse will prepare me for me gsce because i think it is very good because it is better than my school. I had lots of fun at this coarse and i learnt a lot. I was very bad at the beginning and i have gotten a lot better thanks to the very good coarse. Also the teacher TIM was very nice and he helped my improve a lot on the coarse. Thank you all fr making my funtech experience very enjoyable. I went from being not good at java because i never did it before to being very adapt because the fun tech was very fun and informative

Overall i think this is a good coarse and i recommenced this to anyone.

Review

The course was fun, interactive and we learnt lots. I think you should give slightly longer breaks though. Overall, it was very interesting. Thank you, FunTech and Timmy.

My Review

It was fun and i learnt a decent amount about coding.

fun and useful

I really enjoyed this course and definitely learned much more than I thought I would have. I didn't expect to learn so much in a week. I've learned some useful skills throughout the course and would love to do it again.

Leo's Review

The teacher's explanations are good, this helps.

I had a good time

yeah it was pretty cool feel like they should've included a little more on the course but things were good anyway

Great course

I learnt a lot from this course from the basics to making games and I look forward to repeating it again.

Very Good Course for Learning Java

This is a very good course. It improved my knowledge of java by a lot even though I already had prior experience. I would recommend this camp to everyone trying to learn the programming language java.

The course was fun and i have learned a lot.

It was great

I learnt a lot from here, the teacher was very helpful.

Super Fun! I learned a lot!

This camp was VERY fun. i learned a lot and have come a long way from before the course when i did not know anything about java. i give it the highest rating. it was Very fun!

It was alright but a bit challenging

Overall I enjoyed this funtech experience although at times I felt as though I was left behind. This was due to the fact hat it took me a long time to grasp what I was being taught. This problem was quickly resolved as I was moved to another webinar with my brother. This really helped and aided me .

I enjoyed the lessons although they were a bit difficult.

The teachers really tried to help me throughout the course as it was my first time coding and I was not as experience as the other coders. Nevertheless it was still very useful and I was able to understand a large majority of the course in a short period of time.

Summary of your thoughts

Overall, I really enjoyed this course!! The teacher was fantastic, I liked how structured the course was. I had previously done a Python course with FunTech, and so learning the basics of Java was really interesting. My favourite part was probably doing if, and, or and else statements - I found it the most useful.
I found the topic of arrays slightly boring and repetitive, but that is just my personal preference. Overall, I don't have any complaints!
Thank you!

another great funtech course!

i've done about 3 courses so far and the quality of them are always good, the tutors are always friendly and never fail to help.

The lessons

The lessons were great and the teacher(John) was very helpful. I had a few errors in Java but they were solved. The course was very interesting and my experience in Java was very positive.

An insightful Course

This course was not particularly life-changing to me, it was quite slow, and i often found myself ahead of the other students, but it still provided a lot of knowledge and was helpful in the development of my game.

Review

In this camp we learned basic java coding. I found the camp a little less interesting seeing as we didn't do any big projects.

exciting and fun

good and fun but could do with more game coding

FunTech Response
The objective for this camp is to learn to code in Java. For game coding, we do have a Python Game Coder course.

The whole experience was really fun and the extensions were really challenging but interesting.

it helped me learn and helped me deal with my computer problems

the course was going at the right pace and the teacher was good at explaining and helping me when I was stuck. It is really fun and interesting and very easy to get onto. I would like to do it again

Java Coder

It was structured very well, with helpful videos and annotations. I really enjoyed it.

vey fun and enjoyable with good challenging challengers

I think camp was excellent and i learnt a lot about java coding and has helped me with my work at schools maybe a bit more game making but overall a excellent camp
