Excellent week of learning

My son had a great week extending his coding knowledge. I am grateful that Funtech keep extending the syllabus so that he can do a new course each summer.

3D Gaming

My son really enjoyed the 2 week (half day) virtual course on 3D gamning with Unreal engine. Funtech asked for a bit of pre-course prep from me as a parent (checking Broadband speed and computer spec - it was all reasonable to ask and fairly straightforward) and took 2x20mins. We used childcare v

My son really enjoyed the 2 week (half day) virtual course on 3D gamning with Unreal engine. Funtech asked for a bit of pre-course prep from me as a parent (checking Broadband speed and computer spec - it was all reasonable to ask and fairly straightforward) and took 2x20mins.

We used childcare vouchers to pay (you need to pay upfront by card but then we got the money back quickly from Funtech once the childcare scheme had sent their payment). Without this option I do not think we would have booked the course.

Overall I was impressed with how my son remained engaged over the whole two weeks and he seems to have retained a real interest in the subject and learned other transferable skills. The person running the course seems to have struck a good balance between moments where they are all chatting and others when they are progressing the specific course elements.

Overall very good and certainly a good review from my son.

Fun Typer

Thr Fun Typer course content is pretty dry, but the course tutors made it fun for them and my son is now typing so much better, I would definitely recommend this course.

Virtual camp python coding

It is very good to start on coding

a great experierence for child

We flew from Frankfurt to London to join the summer day camp! My husband found the fun tech camp on the internet, as we were looking for summer activities for our son. After reading the course introduction, its plan, and the previous reviews, we booked the day camp at Wimbledon King's college school. We stayed in London for 7 days. With the total price, we could have gone to a lux holiday somewhere else lying on the beach. But when we looked back, it was all worthwhile.

Our 7-year-old child has learned a lot about building mod development, switching him from the consumer to a little active developer. It was his first time that he had to use English in an English-speaking country. He has learned also to get along with all others in that environment, without the help of his parents.
The teachers and personnel were very friendly. They picked us up every morning outside at the entrance and walked with the children into the classroom. Because we are not from the UK, they talked to us in advance to see if everything was ok and talked to our son so he would not be upset on the first day. In the classroom, every child has their own desk and a laptop. It was summer, but the building was not so hot like outside. On each desk, there was a ventilator for each child to use.
The teachers are young . The children loved them and were not afraid to ask questions. On the last day, the parents would be allowed to enter in the last hours to see what children have done in the week. We were asked to bring a USB stick so we could download and transfer the bult mod at home. However, here it could have been better, if parents also got on -spot guide or practise on how to install that at home by themselves.
The children also had enough screen lock break and could play outside.
The learning place itself is very safe. No one can enter from outside. The toilettes are not so far away from the classroom. The camp environment is clean and beautiful.
The school location is easy to reach by bus 93 and walk 8 minutes. Alternatively, there are many free parking slots along side the main road or at side road. An Ice cream van was outside of the entrance every day in the late afternoon, just in time for the camp closing

My child is 12 years and really enjoyed the one week course to learn to type properly during the summer.
As parents we were unsure if the course would be boring and our child wouldn't like it but the course was great, the team managed to make typing really fun and challenging at the same time which engaged the children early on.

Funtech you did a great job! Thank you.

A brilliant week

My son left every day brimming with ideas and knew knowledge - this is honestly the most inspired that I've ever seen him!
We will definitely be signing up again next summer.

Best Experience

Would like to thank everyone for an exceptional, amazing, enjoyable week for my daughter. The courses were at the high professional level, very informative and age appropriate. My child felt safe, entertained, the food was Amazing. I would highly recommend the residential camp for your child.

Looking forward coming up

Juan had great time, enjoyed the activities and the atmonphere. He looks forward coming back on the first ocassion he may have. The team was engaged and focussed on the items that matter.

Thank you to the Funtech team.

Python OOP Virtual Camp

My son really enjoyed the week-long virtual camp which was well organised and fun. Although it seemed quite a lot to be tied to the screen all day the time really flew by and there were plenty of breaks. This is our third (virtual) camp with Funtech and we will sign up for more going forwards.

My son is not a gaming boy as such so was worried, he wouldn't be interested. However, this course was great for him. He thoroughly enjoyed it and was self-sufficient once all the software was loaded. Loading of software was a little challenging which is understandable given everyone has a different set up. We found it worked best on a PC.

Would definitely recommend. It was engaging, the learning of a good skill and a great way to keep them occupied through the holidays!

A.I. - Machine Learning

My son found this virtual camp to be engaging and fun. This is a nice introduction to A.I. - machine learning and provides a good foundation. My son really enjoyed the camp!

Thank you FunTech for the amazing courses and instructors!

Python Virtual Coding Camp

My 12 year old son thoroughly enjoyed attending. He selected the part-time, 2 week course. This worked well throughout the summer holidays. The teacher (Musaab) was great with the children. Overall, a well ran course with excellent support. We will be signing up to the next one.

I was really impressed at how accessible and helpful support staff were and could hear how patient his teacher was. Top quality course and I’m glad he signed up - we will definitely be doing more!

Thank you funtech!

Will definitely book again if we have the chance.

Thank you

Great course

My 11-year old daughter really loved this course. Very well organised and very supportive teaching.

Lots of learning took place!

Great experience

My 10 year-old had a great time at Tonbridge. The camp was well-organized, with a good mix of classes, fun activities and regular timed- breaks.

A wonderful experience overall.

Touch typing

Very encouraging atmosphere to learn touch typing. Happy to go off everyday and could see the progress!

Amazing

My son had an amazing week with FunTech doing the Minecraft Course. He can't wait to come back next year and do another one. Thank you so much to all of the instructors.

Very happy kids!

My two sons had a very nice week with FunTech, they learned a lot and had fun too.

They can't wait to go back next year!

We will definitely be booking again next summer.
5 stars!

Fun and highly recommended

Dylan had fun while learning and the course was well organised.

Harry told me he really enjoyed this last course .. and his tutor was very knowledgeable and helpful and he enjoyed doing this course with other people more his own age.

He seemed to be occupied and interested for the whole 5 days .. we have previously done just pms so this week was intensive but it seemed to work well for him and I think he had leant new things that were previously gaps in his knowledge.

I think these funtech courses have been very professionally presented and run and I am very impressed with the level and standard of knowledge and teaching on offer.

Dylan and Seren loved touch typing

I just wanted to say how much Dylan and Seren loved touch typing. They were both a bit sceptical when I told them that I’d booked it but they really enjoyed the lessons and games and didn’t seem to realise they were learning to touch type!

Thank you!

Touch typing

My son loved this course. He was super keen to get a lot out of it and it didn’t disappoint him. He made a huge amount of progress.

Great tutors - thanks!

My son is dyslexic and initially struggled with the touch typing course but the tutors were brilliant and managed to get him engaged and he progressed well.

Hi team

Just wanted to share my views on how the fun typer day camp for both Aidan (14 yrs old) and Amelie (12 yrs old)
They both enjoyed the camp and the rapport built with Riz (tutor) and other tutors during the week.
The interactive approach to using games and rewards with real money worked well given the ages.
The focus on posture and leg position was of benefit

I understand this was more of a game approach that works well with Children but given the ages of my children I would have liked to see more real life speed typing challenges with real text etc to see the accuracy and WPM levels. This was particularly the case as both have extensive experience of using a home pc product to developing accuracy and WPM levels so I was hoping towards the end of the week this area would have been explored.

A brilliant course!

This was a brilliant course for my 15 year old daughter. Just the right level, and with a wonderful teacher providing all the support that was needed. She thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thank you funtech!

Very professional and engaging course

The course was very professional and challenging.
The level was high and kept our son engaged at all times.
The teacher was patient and attentive to all the students and managed to steer the lesson in the right direction.

We were very happy with the camp and would recommend it.

The Python proficiency is a must to get the most out of this course though as Charlie was a little rusty and found it hard when she couldn't remember.

Luke (who is 14) really enjoyed this course. He spoke highly of the course teacher and said the course was well run and there was a small enough number of students that they got a good amount of individual attention.

He particularly enjoyed the fact that the teacher didn’t dictate what to write, but gave examples with explanations and then left the students to write their own code.

Highly recommended.

Very good camp

My son Felix enjoyed the camp. It was a little too much information in one day for an 11 years old boy but I think he learned a lot and next year we have to book the 2 week camp so he can better focus every day. It was very professionally organized.

Thank you!

Python coder

Archie enjoyed the Python Coder Level 1 course so much he asked to go straight onto the Level 2 course.

He enjoyed it so much, he is now doing it for his GCSEs.

That’s inspiration for you!

Touch typing camp. Excellent

Very impressed they managed to enthuse my son to learn touch typing!

Day camp review

My sons really enjoyed this course and understood the basics of python.

The tutor managed to balance the amount of learning without it feeling overwhelming being online all day.

My son enjoyed the course a lot and asked to attend another one next year.

Well done and thank you to everyone at Funtech!

He ended up being at Funtech every summer, with his sister following his footsteps. It was her first residential trip this year and she loved it.

The content and quality of teaching Roblox course she attended, was excellent, children were looked after very well, meals were tasty.

Thank you for that.

We have no reservations to recommend Funtech to our friends.

My daughter found the Indie Game Developer Camp very interesting and it has inspired her to consider developing further her skills in game design and development. The size of the class was small (3 children). The tutor was excellent! She was knowledgeable, greatly able at passing that knowledge at the level required by the students and made the whole experience fun and enjoyable.

I should also add that the technical support was, as usual, pro-active and very helpful whether in the computer set up stage or during the camp period.

Thank you ever so much to the Funtech Team for making the camp such as a valuable and positive experience for my daughter.

Nice fun!

Kids really enjoyed, it is definitely a camp with some extra lux to it - there was nothing the children faulted, from food to leisure activities and learnt a lot about Minecraft coding as well in the process and were excited to continue learning after they got back.

Thank you
