A great way to learn Python!

I only spent a week on the online course and I've enjoyed every second of it! The teachers are able to make it fun and engaging and when you don't quite get something, they're able to give you a brief but good explanation. There where some parts that I found challenging, but they were able to help m

Great

On the first day, I found it difficult because I didn't know much about computing. But as my tutor went through it I started to understand it more. I am now able to code most things by myself without a tutor helping me.

Review of Python Coder part 2 - Advanced

The python course was good because the tutor explained everything multiple times, especially the more complicated topics and she helped us when we needed help.

Enjoyed the course and felt that some of the tasks really challenged me and strengthened my knowledge of the things I already knew a taught me some things that I didn't know before.

Good for understanding coding and learning Python

I know much more than I used to know about Python and I'm proud of what I've coded this week. There are extensions for when you have finished the main task and this is good because then I wasn't bored while waiting for other people to finish.

Very engaged coding lesson, very good overall

The coding lessons seems well- structured, could be better to spend a bit time in each day to explain the learning objects and outcomes, and have a summary at the end of each lesson for study focus. There are some teaching contents delivered by direct recorded videos, which seems not very effect

Great! Would recommend!

Tutors are very good at teaching, and the course is very helpful and inclusive. The only reason it isn't 5 stars is £475 for an online call is quite expensive. otherwise, this was great!

Jessica's review

It was quite fun and interesting although at the start of the course it was a bit frustrating because I already knew print statements.

FunTech Response


Sorry you found the first part of the first morning frustrating, however before we can move onto more challenging concepts, we need to make sure everyone in the group is at the same level.

Excellent course

My son thoroughly enjoyed the course and the tutor was brilliant! My only issue is the python dev environment. It was a bit intrusive for the tutors to have full control of our home computer. My son as a matter of principle and his age doesn’t have his own computer so has to use mine. Other

FunTech Response


I am sorry you found our virtual environment a bit intrusive.

However, rest assured that once the lesson has finished, we do not have control or access to your machine.

FunTech invests a substantial amount in this environment so that parents are confident that we will support their child for both technical issues that may arise or with any course content.

Delighted that your son enjoyed the course.

Very useful course which taught me a lot about programming.

The course was very informative and fun. I learnt a lot and using that knowledge at the end to create a project was very rewarding. However I found that not enough time was spend recapping the difficult topics. This made it so I had a very good understanding of most of the topics by the end but ther

good but can be slow at times

The course was fun and interactive but at times felt a bit like a school lesson and felt a bit slow over all I felt like I learnt a lot and I liked the scheduled 15 minute breaks to let us relax and ease stress if you need help just ask and they will trouble shoot and teach you the problem and fix

FunTech review

The course was really fun and beneficial to my knowledge of coding Python. However, for the past 3.5 days, we have just been coding games, which can get fairly boring after you have coded the majority of games.

FunTech Response


I am sorry that you found the last day and a half boring.

However, the idea behind the last day and a half is for you to put your python knowledge into action by coding a variety of different games.

To be a good coder, you not only need to know the constructs but need lots of coding practice which the tutors can help you with if you get stuck.

However, good to hear it was fun and beneficial.

My review for the course

I enjoyed the course but I didnt like how I had to give a review about it everyday.

FunTech Response


These were not reviews, but feedback of how your session went, which we collect from every student.

We do this so that if you tell us you have not understood something, we can either bring you in for a prep or cover the concept again the next day.

Sorry you didn't enjoy writing them, but it's an excellent way to ensure we are doing our job and you are learning :)

The course was really fun and I learnt so much. The only thing that would make it better was if we moved at a faster pace because we had to make sure everyone fully understood the topic before moving on which was understandable but a bit annoying so maybe if there were just more extension project id

This was a fun course and I learned a lot.

A really interesting and fun camp!

I thought the course helped me a lot and I learnt how to code python for the first time. This was all really interesting that I want to show my family and teach them some python too. Our teacher was kind and really helpful to the class when we were struggling with bits that we didn't understand.
