Very Fun and Informative course!

I found my week at the cyber security hackathon very fun in the classroom and outside I learned a lot from this course and would definitely come again. Our tutor Laura was really nice and helped a lot if was stuck and made the course very interesting and fun.

Hard But Great

Extremely Advanced & Hard To Follow But Overall Very Good!

Great

Peter was very helpful , hardworking and encouraging. He helped us all progress and get through our course.

My experience at fun tech

this is an amazing camp. i really liked learning how to hack. the other students were all really nice. Although my tutor was annoyingly sarcastic at times i did learn a lot. I can't wait until i get back next year.

Brilliant course, really enjoyed

Best camp

This was a fun week that I really enjoyed

Very funny and i learned very much

The course was fantastic. I learned a lot and I enjoyed myself immensely!

Great Course!

This was very fun, I loved every moment, although the breaks could potentially have been shorter. I would highly recommend this course.

I really enjoyed this course. The content of each day is great and there is always something new to learn. I especially liked the use of open-source software so that I can continue using the tools after the course without spending lots of money. The class sized are great for productivity aswell. Although, I found the speed of the lessons are quite slow and I noticed that we did not always finish the coursework for the day before the end and had to finish the next day. Also, I think that there should be step-to-step tutorials for the excercises as the videos and task lists did not give enough help to understand that is needed. Great for intermediate students but not great for beginners. Great overall though.

Covered a lot of content

Learnt a lot of methods about getting into servers, how data can be stolen and crack passwords. Happy with what we covered in 5 days

Very Fun, Very Informative

I like this course a lot. my only problem is the length of the breaks. after 20 minutes of either of the two 30 minute breaks you want to come back in and do more work. Other than that it is great.

Very good, funny informative and helpful

It was a satisfactory and rewarding experience.

Our good fellows at funtech have once again provided us with a wholly satisfactory experience, which entertained me thoroughly throughout the course.

Our good fellows at funtech have once again provided us with a wholly satisfactory experience, which entertained me thoroughly throughout the course. Frankly, If i were to rate it against the quadratic formula of the left ventricle, it would be a solid 4.55657534545, a prestigious rating in the alternate circle theorem problem universe. Clearly, one is to compare this against the true way to eat a banana, it results in the answer to all the questions in the known universe via releasing a benevolent omnipotent AI, but more importantly, it was pretty fun.

Hackathon Review

Really enjoyed the camp, teachers were strict but good. Sometimes the course could be clearer but it was really informative with loads of content. My tutor was great. Would highly recommend to those looking for a fast-paced, informative course on hacking.

good

I thought the course was generally good. Seen as this course is new some of the things in relation to the content are reasonable. But a more polished version of this course would be great to see as it was really interesting and I did enjoy it. When I mean it could be polished this is what I mean : More "How to" videos would help because if you don't have any prior experience in this topic I'ts hard to fully engage in the content

Great

It is quite fast paced but is very fun, because you get to hack and have fun at the same time.

Really nice

I found this course very interesting. However, it was quite fast passed.

This course was quite fast paced but very well written and covered some very interesting content. It showed off some of the multiple ways that hackers can use to gain unauthorised access to a computer. Every part was explained in enough detail and it was easy to get help. It could have been improved by better control of some of the kids as at points there was some quite annoying disruption. Overall I would give it 4.5 / 5.

Great

Much better than the unreal engine 4 one

good

the camp was good
we learnt a lot
our instructor was really patient with us

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

Personally, I loved this tech summer school. I learnt sp many new things that I am certain will be useful in the future. The teachers and fellow students are so nice and respectful and I couldn't have asked for a better week. 10/10 and would 100% recommend.

Ok it was all right

I liked the tutor and the work but i would recommend bringing a book a the breaks are incredibly long and boring.

I enjoyed it

I really enjoyed this course because i was always curious about how hacking works and the fact that it was so simple and easy to remember really helped me engage and enjoy the course.

great!

It was a challenging week but fun and the skills were useful. The tutors are really nice and ill guarantee that you will have fun.

goke is a legend we love him

we loved our tutor goke very nice guy but the course was too difficult for a week. all the staff is very nice especially goke. he helped all of us and made sure we understood everything before he moved on but the course was too hard.

Amazing!

It was a great week but it is to difficult to learn all that in one week

Informative and fun!

I've been to Funtech numerous times in the past, each one giving me a great, fun week and filling my brain with knowledge! Hackathon was no different - the week started off quite awkward; however, by the end few days, we all knew each other better than ever! To conclude, I found Hackathon to be a great start in learning about hacking, and anything I didn't understand was answered by my amazing tutor, Clement! Great job (as always), Funtech!

REALLY COOL Camp

we learnt a lot about linux and we were taught how to use many features of Kali (a VM) and exploit them in different ways.

Funtech review 45

This was really simple to understand and i learnt a lot. We got to use new software's and different types of computers. The tutors were really nice; they let us feed the ducklings! There is nothing to do at break and lunch times. :)

Best camp ever

The camp was really fun and was made easy to understand because we went through everything step by step . The tutor was extremely helpful.

i don't know what to call this.

i liked it to an extent. the tutors are really understanding and helpful. however the breaks are really long and there's not much to do. the course is a bit confusing but other than that i enjoyed meeting new people. :)

9/10 Camp of the year

I really enjoyed learning about john the ripper, hydra Etc (although i did not know why i came) i still really enjoyed it

Great First Steps into Hacking

I had a lot of fun on this course, learning about the linux system as well as some of the techniques hackers use to get into systems that aren't protected properly. The staff were very helpful and challenged us if we found it easier at any points.

interesting

enjoyed everything apart from waking up early and beef program

Very valuable course!

I learnt a lot in this course, the tutors are friendly and the course is straight-forward and easy to follow. It's nice if everyone pays attention and help each other!

a learning experience

The course left me with better skill when it came to using linux and a better understanding of hacking

Amazing

Hackathon is so fun. You learn how to hack. Like breaking passwords using brute force methods and logging into other computers by using an ip address. Also the tutors are really helpful and make it enjoyable.

hackathon

i think that funtech hackathon north wood has greatly improved my skills for hacking using virtual box. My tutor clement has been a huge asset for my success in the hackathon classes. i have made many friends which is great to see that hackathon has such a welcoming environment.
