Roblox Developer course

My child really enjoyed this course. The feedback element of the course by the child on a daily basis is a great idea as the teacher then changed his style/ tech in accordance with the children’s preference on how they learn. As a parent I would only ask that some individual feedback is given to parents at the end of the course (nothing detailed but info on what the teacher thinks the child could do to improve their programming/developer skill going forward). We would sign up for another course again! Thanks funtech.

My daughter enjoyed the AI learning camp very much. The instructor has organised the teaching material very well and was answering the questions from the pupils at all time. The break interval was set up well and allow the child to concentrate throughout the half day course.

Recommend to allow option of full day course over 1 week for the Virtual camp instead of the half-day course spreading over the 2-week time. This will allow more flexibility on the family to plan holiday away time during the school off period.

very educational

My son Victor really got a lot out of the camp and is now working away on a video game. It is extremely valuable to go on the course as the tools that the children like and skills will be of benefit in the future.

I am very pleased ...it was well worth the investment.

Python OOP Review

My daughter enjoyed this, and I think its a valuable course prior to starting GCSE's. However, she did find that some time was wasted on covering ground for some pupils not having a firm knowledge of Python.

But overall, a good course, and highly recommended.

Python Coder

My daughter enjoyed it, and she has already starting to link it to work she is doing with Scratch programming in school.

Game developer

My two children really enjoyed it and were engaged the whole two weeks of the course. They were also thrilled with the game they produced by the end of it

Python club

Gali really enjoyed the club. She was excited every day to learn new things. Her instructor Joel was kind and helpful. Very professional. She is looking forward to sign up for Python 2. Thank you Funtech for doing an amazing job :)

Child’s interest and learning

Our child has great interest in Roblox and prefers it over other games. Now she has learned to design her own games. What the childen like, they learn faster. Good training.

Great summer activity and enjoyable camp

This was the second Minecraft camp that my son did with FunTech and he has enjoyed his learning process. It involves lessons, self-work, and implementing the learned materials in the game.
Thank you FunTech!

Minecraft Game Coder

Lyndon thoroughly enjoyed his virtual Minecraft course. He found the tutor engaging and the course was well organised and structured. Lyndon has now done 6 Funtech courses (4 physical and 2 virtual) and they have all been excellent. We would highly recommend Funtech.

Python-Coder Virtual Camp

Amazing courses! My daughter was very happy with the content of Python L1 and L2. I am willing to consider other virtual camps in the future.
Thank you FunTech!

Luca absolutely loved the course!

Thank you for such a great course, my son Luca loved the course and really wants to book onto the next one. He learnt a lot of new skills and made some new friends, all round he really enjoyed it - thank you!

Minecraft Redstone Engineering

My son loved the week long course and learnt a lot! He said his tutor was really helpful and ensured that no-one got left behind.

Python Gaming Coder

Ollie had a great time making the game. The content stretched him and he learned new skills (classes). There was good support. When Ollie didn't understand something, he went back to the teacher and managed to fix it with their help. Another great course!

I think two weeks was a bit long for Timo. The length of the days were OK but he lost concentration in week two.
The instructor was very patient with the young boys and girls and was also very knowledgeable.
A great course and Timo loved it.

My 12 year old son was completely engaged all week

Great teacher - course kept my son happily engaged all week. He couldn’t wait to continue the course each morning. He’s showed us some of the code he has done and we are impressed.
Would definitely recommend this course.
Thanks

Another great Funtech experience

The children really enjoyed Redstone engineering and built some incredible things with their tutor Ashley. A brilliant way to engage them whilst we worked.

My son found the camp worthwhile and definitely improved his knowledge.
Virtual learning is always challenging but this was well organised and professionally delivered.
He did wish that there had been more interaction with other students, they learn from each other. I did feel that the students should have been requested/invited to show their faces rather than blank images. Face to face, even online is really important for understanding learning. This was not childcare for Owen but an opportunity to support his knowledge in readiness for his GCSE’s. I would definitely recommend.

My son enjoyed the course

My son enjoyed the course and had a real sense of achievement. His teacher was able to engage him and as such I didn't have any trouble getting my son to attend each day.

Indie Game Coder

My son really enjoyed the indie game coder course using Construct3 and has clearly learned a lot. He is able to create simple games independently and has lots of ideas for how to push his new skill forward.

Our 12 year old son was a beginner in Java at the start of this course. I asked him after it finished whether he would recommend it. The answer was yes, for the following reasons:
- Liked the teaching style
- All the questions were answered
- Friendly atmosphere.

By the end, he has written is first gaming project as an independent exercise, up to 250 lines of code and counting.
Would highly recommend this course.

Very good camp

We have two weeks python level 2 camp, which our ten year old son enjoyed very much every day. At the end of the camp he was able to make simple text and video games with Python. We look forward to subscribe him into next level soon

My 11y-old loved it

Thank you so much to Funtech and the coding teachers ! My son loved the coding lessons and really appreciated the remote format. Everything is smoothly organised and I booked already new coding lessons for this summer. I highly recommend this fun experience for kids

Brilliant two weeks

Our daughter loved the Python 1 two-week virtual coding class. She is already begging for another course. I would definitely recommend to other parents with children interested in coding.

It was exciting for him to be able to learn about this very new coding platform an the tutor was very knowledgeable and patient.
It was also super-convenient for us that he was able to do the camp from home.
Please keep providing these great opportunities, as it especially benefits kids who are not into sports or those who, for other reasons, may not be able to access other types of summer camps.

Virtual Camp for 13 Year Old

My son really enjoyed his Virtual Camp, learning 3D game design using Unreal Engine. The tutor was really patient, helpful and supportive. I was really impressed with the quality of the games he produce by the end of the course. He is now teaching his younger brother to use the software!

3D Game Design

My son thoroughly enjoyed this course! The course tutor really made the course interesting and was able to help understand the material. My son was eager to show us what he had learned and coded. Really cool to see the excitement! Thank you FunTech!

My daughter completed the Python coding course. She had done a similar course with a different provider and I was able to make a direct comparison between the two. This course was much more organised, with the instructors monitoring the pupils' screens to make sure they stayed on track. It was very well structured and there was no 'time filling.' It also held her interest (after the introductory parts which I think she found a bit dull) for very long days.
All in all I think this deserves a 5* review. A very impressively run virtual club.

My daughter enjoyed the holiday camp immensely. Although she had not coded in Python before, she was carefully guided through the concepts and was able to apply what she had learnt and seemed very satisfied with her achievements. She was able to get on with the virtual course independently over the 2 weeks and looked forward to her classes each morning. Her teacher was fun and friendly and she thought he was fantastic. I can always rest assured my children will not be disappointed with a FunTech course.

This is the second time our 10 year old son attends a virtual course ( it was the minecraft redstone one) and we are already planning the next one!
We are quite pleased with the ease of booking and of communicating ( although I would note that it took a few days to get a response to some technical questions...) and we were kept informed throughout the course about any issues, every time our son would be logged out or if there were any problems at all, very well supervised. Very polite and helpful staff on the other end of the phone if needed.
Our son found the course extremely enjoyable and is very very keen indeed to attend again.
Many thanks!

Intensive coding course, high standard of teaching, interesting content

My son enjoyed the course very much, was fully immersed in the world of coding for 5 days of virtual teaching, not missing a minute. There was much one on one advice and a high standard of teaching, so he was really motivated to attend each day and complete the project. Thank you!!

Thank you

Samantha had a great time during the two weeks virtual lessons and gain a lot from the coding lessons.

Chiamaka was very patient, engaging, answering all questions and kept Samantha interested for the two weeks!.... which was one of our worries after enrolling Samantha for the class.

There was no need for the worry because Chiamaka was the best teacher for her.

Thank you.
