Andy enjoyed his java coder virtual lessons. They enhanced his skills in coding and he will use these skills to strengthen his grades in his computing classes in school. Funtech provided great online lessons, I would recommend them highly to anyone interested in developing/strengthening coding skills for their children and is not able to make it for the physical lessons.

good experience with FunTech

My son is enjoying the course. The teacher is enthusiastic and professional in teaching. Class size is small, so each student can receive sufficient support. The teacher frequently checked if students understand or able to follow up. I would recommend this course to my friends.

Java

Andy enjoyed his virtual camp. He learned a new coding skill and he is confident that it will be useful in his computer studies in school. He had a Great teacher and she was very patient! Thank you.

Python - Coder virtual camp

It's a great camp to introduce the python code to young children. Tutor even offered additional Q&A session to help my boy, which is very kind. It will help the children revise the new knowledge if small assignment can be provided after each session.

Thank you.

I think this course has been a great success for my son and although the first few days he found the content easy he soon settled in and it has cemented his knowledge which we wanted to make sure we could do. The tutor Sam impressed me as he had to deal with younger students and my son at the same time but he managed the age gap and gave my son different tasks as he realised maybe my son needed a bit more to do at times. He was professional at all times and the whole course was prompt and well managed.
We are doing 2 more courses and my son is looking forward to progressing with Funtech’s help.

A Great Experience

Kai really enjoyed learning about Roblox and found himself immersed in it. The instructions were clear and easy to follow and made the experience well worth while.

We’ll be back!

This is our third virtual camp, and there will be a fourth.
It is well priced , well organised and well run. Our 11 year old son loves it and it is an educational break from other activity holiday camps.
If I had one criticism it would be that sometimes the responses to technical queries can take a few days, but this has so far not causes any problems.

Roblox Gaming

My 9 year old absolutely loved this course and would race to the computer before the start of the lessons each day and excitedly share with me all that she’d learnt. The teacher really engaged her and I’d highly recommend.

Phoebe's Python OOP Camp Review

Many apologies for our failure to provide feedback so far. I promise we will. It has just been a rather hectic summer and we’ve not made the time to sit down with Phoebe to write some feedback together. She is currently away with her grandparents in Wales, but I will aim to get this sorted out at the weekend. I should add that Phoebe had a brilliant time and benefitted a great deal from the two courses. We thought the instructors were excellent and everything was well organised, so thank you!

Freddie's Camp Review

I wanted to let you know that Freddie had a brilliant time at the Minecraft coding camp. He thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. He found it extremely useful in terms of his Minecraft knowledge and thought that the tutors were excellent. Thank you so much

My son loves the Funtech sessions. This year he attended 3D game design which he enjoyed. As a parent, I would make the following observations:

-The course is quite expensive but worthwhile. However, I do think a USB could have been included
- I think the end of course certificate would have more value if they were handed out in class
- A car drop off facility would determine if I book a certain venue. Really don't want to seek and pay for a parking space to drop off a child

What's great;
- The administration of the course is always very thorough and timely
- The course content and topics are very engaging
- This is one of the few clubs that pre-teen/teen boys want to do, so well done in capturing that market
- I like the fact that you employ young people to run the courses. They engage better with teenagers who think they are hanging out with an older friend rather than going to school!

Cali had a wonderful time. At first we were concerned that 5 days of 9am-5pm would be too a bit too long for her to do the same thing….but how wrong were we!!! She absolutely loved it, I do not think I have ever seen her so happy at the end of a long day. She said one of her favourite things about the instructors were how patient they were.

We will definitely be sending her back for more sessions next summer.

Dima was really looking forward to the Python course last week as he had told you himself few weeks ago. But almost right after our conversation he ended up in the hospital for an urgent operation - his recovery had certain complications and it was only yesterday when he had returned home. He was extremely frustrated by this but the life can be unpredictable…

My wife notified your team about this development just before the start of his course since we were hoping that he would recover faster. She was advised to get in touch with the insurance company you deal with for these matters for the reimbursement.

I hope Dima’s final recovery at home will be way faster now and he will be back to a 100% activity level very soon. He is asking about the online courses already - a very good sign! And we’ve got your update on this very recently.

My son Hari enjoyed the cyber course, it seemed to live up to his expectations

Having visited the venue at pickup, the venue marred from expectations, the rooms had little natural light and the kids didn't seem to have outside space to hang out in. I appreciate that it was completely to do with Covid and hopefully next year you will be able to run things in the school camp at Westminster.

Our very best to you and the team

Monty's Virtual Camp

My son loved the Minecraft camp. It was easy to set up for him and the teacher was friendly and knowledgeable. Monty learned a lot of cool new things and was very glad he attended.

Edward's Virtual Camp

Ted enjoyed the course more than I thought he would. He was actually sad when it finished! It was great we could use childcare vouchers. Everyone was really helpful whenever I had contact with them. Thank you.

This is the first time we have used Funtech having enrolled our 7 year old daughter on a week long Roblox Designer course. We were slightly apprehensive at first, however our daughter had an absolutely fantastic week. She learnt lots of new skills whilst also having had fun and making new friends. She’s already requested to attend the Minecraft Camp next year. Highly recommended.

Engaging

Fun tech courses are highly engaging while providing high quality content.

Creative Tech course

Our son enjoyed the course delivered in the three terms. He learned how to use various programs and their application in the creative world. The classes are small and it helps to have a more engaging experience. He continues with Tech Pro this year.

Good week of learning

My daughter enjoyed the virtual club and learning to code.

Awesome!

Helped my son immensely on his coding journey

Great course - excellent teacher

My son thoroughly enjoyed his week doing this course. He was fully immersed the whole time. Never seen him so engaged and committed to something from 9am to 5.30pm for 5 full days. Thank you.

Thank you, Remy indeed enjoyed his classes. As Roblox server wasn't working today I was not able to see his final class output, but this I was promised would be resolved next week. I would highly rate Remy's teacher, as she was very friendly and professional and made the course fun for my son. It is also a praise for Funtech as a whole, as you went ahead with the course even though he was your only student. One slight negative comment I'd say is the lack of takeaway notes, so Remy could use them while working on his project and also get back to them after the course.

Indie Game Developer

Our Daughter enjoyed the course which was delivered over 2 weeks online. During the course, she was getting all the help she needed and was very pleased with the result.

Excellent courses

Our daughter attended two virtual camps at Funtech : Roblox Game Developer and Scratch Coder She had a very good time. She learnt lots of new skills whilst also having fun. The tutors were very attentive and always helpful. Highly recommended.

My son had a great time on this course, he was always keen to start the course every morning and seemed engaged all the way through. The small class sizes really helped in making sure he got the support when he needed it.

George loved the course. The tutor was excellent and really engaging and supportive. He's looking forward to the next course already.

Excellent!

An Amazing Experience

My daughter enjoyed the course, she learned so much and would definitely continue to complete more courses with FunTech. The teacher was so knowledgeable, professional and the whole experience was so much fun and full of things to learn.

We love FunTech

My son is with them for almost 4 years now, he got A* in A Level.

My son enjoyed the course.

2nd course , with a different teacher but same excellent tuition keeping my son involved. The teacher also provided an additional session at the start as my son had not grasped some points. Very happy with the course and Teachers.

Rolblox

Rose had a great time during her sessions. It was enjoyable. I recommend this course for any one who has interests in gaming.

My son really enjoyed the Python coding day camp

My son, Ollie, 11 years old, joined the Python Coding Day Camp in August. He really enjoyed the day camp and said learnt a lot and had lots fun too. Thank you for organising such a lovely course.

Python level 1

Marc enjoyed the course , communications were excellent
Thank you !

Roblox Game Developer

Fantastic course. Natalie really enjoyed it. She has played Roblox for years and it was so good for her to start learning how to make the games herself.

Particular praise for Adrian who ran the course. He was so good with the kids - patient, encouraging, and supportive. A complete superstar.

Very fun experience

Hi FunTech team, it was a great program and we will come back for more! I would love to see some once a week one hour programs for Minecraft too.

FunTyper

My son really enjoyed the camp and receiving an Amazon gift voucher really incentivised him! He left with a words per minute speed of 50 and a boost in his confidence.

Excellent typing course at Funtech's Smithfield venue. Very well organised for both parents and attending children. Great staff and and excellent location. The venue was very secure, well laid out and of a high standard. The staff were top class and both looked after the children well and made sure that the experience was indeed FUN(tech)! My child really enjoyed the course and learned a great deal without even really noticing it. I would definitely recommend both this course and Funtech more generally.

Great course, well taught

It was a good course and the teachers was good. Some parts were conceptually hard for my 12 year old to get his head around but that didn’t take away from his enjoyment.

Python Coder

My 13 year old son, while slightly reluctant at first to do a course during the summer holidays, soon became engaged with it and said he learned a lot. He feels this has set him up well to start Year 9/GCSE computer science and also commented that the tutors were very nice.

My son just completed his second year of camps with FunTech and he absolutely loves it. The platform is great, I particularly like how the tutor not only can present the course but also help out on my son's screen at the same time, its almost magic. We've tried other providers but they don't come anywhere near the quality of a FunTech course. Our son learnt loads and was proudly showing off his creations at the end of the session, mobs, epic weapons, weird creatures... doesn't mean a lot to me, but the smile on his face does and his confidence not only on the computer but in a group environment have improved immensely. This year he will also join his older brother on the term time offering which is just as fantastic, wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Isaac's review

He had a wonderful time and looked forward to going every morning. He has been working on his coding outside of the class too, and has learned many new skills.
