I really enjoyed the python course and I have learnt lots of new coding skills. I now have a basic understanding of python coding. I thought the teaching methods were very good with the videos and frequent stops to learn new things. However, I found the maths part of it a bit hard and thought it could have been a little better explained as well as breaking it up a bit, so it is not just a day of the maths part.

Overall, I very much enjoyed the python course and would recommend it to anybody.

Funtech Coding

I enjoyed the web meetings, because I learned a lot about coding, like how to print messages and make loops. The lessons were interactive and that made them fun.

pretty fun course!

i really enjoyed the course; the pace was great, the topics were covered in a good amount of detail and depth, so i actually learned a lot. it was also pretty fun too and the tutor is great :)

explained well

It was explained very well and in easy way so that its easy to understand, I learnt lots of new things.

Good but bad

I liked it because it was easy but I didn't like the fact my interenet disconnected.

I signed up for this course as a way to get a head start for my computer science GCSE. It has been very helpful and I have learnt a lot. The course has focused on learning and has still kept me entertained. My favourite part of the course has been doing the final assessment. If I could improve one thing it would be that instead of having two 15 minute breaks in the morning it could be 1 half hour break.

Incredible 2 weeks :)

I had an amazing time learning how to code python. I especially enjoyed doing all the various projects which varied on the amount of knowledge and understanding that we needed. I kind of enjoyed working as a group, but not that much, but generally, this camp was exciting and fantastic :)

Python Coder Review

I really liked learning how to code and make games, it was a nice experience. I liked making games in groups.

Python

This camp is very good. It is fun and enjoyable, but you can also learn a whole lot of things that you never knew. Also, the tutors are very knowledgeable.

Python Coder- end of week

it was fun and everyone was nice

I really liked funtech

I really enjoyed doing the course, especially with being able to write it and see how it worked. I have to say I found some parts hard, but being able to ask the tutor any questions was really helpful. I also really liked how they would not tell you the answer but help you find the answer yourself.

Challenging but fun

I liked the python course because even though we started off simple it got quite interesting and the last two days where we got to do pretty hard coding challenges was my favourite part. The teacher was also really nice.

it was really fun and arianna is super fun! i really enjoyed her as our tutor. i will really miss doing this because i have made such great friends during it. it was so fun and i wish that if i ever do this again, i get the same tutor and classmates. the learning we have done has expanded my interest in coding and has inspired me to be a coder when i grow up. My only thing is that they could make the lessons even more interesting with game challenges. apart from that, my experience at funtech was incredible and I am exited to do it again next year!

I really enjoyed the camp over the two weeks due to the tutor being very friendly and willing to cope with any amount of mistakes that the others and I made and the 15 mins breaks I thought were a very good idea for people to rest and get away from screens. My problems with it were that the first day was very slow, due to the start of the camp needing to cover the basics. I know that it is unavoidable, but in the future, I think that they can try to present it in a different way. There were also a few mistakes on the presentation, but they were all corrected by the tutor as we went through the lessons. Overall, a very good experience.

great and you learn a lot

its fun great the explaining is great learn a lot and is good pace to challenge you

Very beneficial!

Overall the python coder camp was a good experience and I learned a lot from it, the tutor was very good an helped when I needed and taught well. I had a good time during the two weeks, and the day was broken up with two small breaks which as a result made the day less overwhelming.

Good course, enjoyable and was very useful

The course was fun, useful and has helped me learn most of the things I will need for GCSE computing. Since most of it revolves around python code. This has given me a large boost ahead.

callum's review

When i first joined funtech, i didn't know what to expect. When i joined, my tutor was there to help and was really kind. There were a lot of technical problems but funtech were always helping. Afterwards, everything fun and enjoyable and it was a really nice experience.

I thought it would be boring at the start but paul was really nice and equal to everyone

I think it was really good and i probably will do it again

Python coding camp

it was very helpful to learn python and I believe it was taught very well as I understand all of it

So to begin with, I thought python was... difficult. this course changed my mind hands down. python is actually fun, especially when you make a loop where 160000+ numbers were produced in the console :D. That I think was the most satisfying thing in my life ;-) . So when the course started, I actually expected to go to the actual programming straight away. However it took nearly two hours to do so, and in that time I was watching python videos. At that point I was sceptical, saying that python was boring and then I was told that it takes time to get into the real thing. the other reason I found it boring was actually later, and that was because the sound was too low. I also had to change laptops, because the other one wouldn't launch and I think the reason why I fell behind was mostly because I couldn't hear. But it still took some time to understand that this was a first shot, and things could get better. So over the following days, reviews started to look positive. At this point I still didn't understand that yesterday it took time to get where I was and without it I wouldn't have come to this.
The reason I didn't take a star off this review for this reason is because on the fourth or fifth day I finally realised that on the first day I should have had the thought that you must make the most of it because it will benefit you further in the course. Then when loops started I started laughing about how many numbers I could generate and scroll through. I was thinking if python will crash. It DID. Hahaha. My reviews were really pleasing, and it was mostly about laughing.

However, the not-so-amazing things have to also be pointed out.

- A half star was taken off because the videos were very basic, and I felt that their pace was clear, but slow. This is not a significant downside, and it is minor, but I thought I should point it out.

- Another half star was taken off because although the video explained well, I just felt that it didn't get me thinking enough, and I remember only a couple of programs. Again this is not severe, but I do know that FunTech doesn't have too many options when teaching, but again, it was significant enough to point out.

Overall, apart from a few nitpick things here and there, and also that I knew the first day was boring for a reason, I am really happy with this lesson

Good course

I liked it, not much to say about it really

Funtech review

the funtech course was really fun even though on a few accasions i struggled with my concentration, in the last two days i was in a 1 to 1 and i got loads done it it really helped me to understand all types oflists and loops.

End of Course Review

The course was very thorough and went through all of the units in detail. It was tiring, but a very useful course, as I was only beginning Python.

good

the last day is the best as you are free to do what you want. i believe that we should have more time on our own things

Quite fun

It fun and teaches you computer science quite fun would definitely recommend

I really enjoyed this course

I really enjoyed this. I liked how we went through everything in detail and it helped me to learn and memorise the different types of codes and functions. Sometimes it went quite slow but the challenges and the end of each topic made it alot more fun and really made me feel like i was learning alot

Great course for beginners

The course had a good pace, and wasn't too fast. Sometimes the basics could have been explained a bit faster and there could have been more time taken on the difficult parts, but in the end, everything was covered, and it was fun to complete projects at the end.

It was fun.

The camp was really enjoyable, and we learnt a lot of Python. The tutors were very helpful, but still let you do it yourself. I would recommend it.

Python camp - Julia

FunTech was fun and I learnt a lot from Tutor 26(Matt). I liked the fact that we had freedom in what we got to create.

I enjoyed the course because it was so easy and simple to follow while your able to learn a lot at the same time. The smaller simpler projects were the best because you could learn a bit and use all of your programming knowledge you have learnt so far to create them.

One thing that could be improve is that you listen to the teacher talk and watch them explain and then you have time to write the code after that, instead of doing both at the same time, rushing and you then won't learn as much.

I would recommend this course to others who want to learn the basics of python.

Fun tech

This course is very fun and exciting. Almost everyday you learn something, also you get to make small project. The most fun is the large project at the end.

fun tech

I thought fun tech was really good and it has taught me a lot and I've left the course with lots more knowledge and I think all the things I learnt here will help a lot in school as I used to struggle in coding but now I know a lot

very good

very fun, you learn a lot and the tutors are good

Learnt alot.

At firs

very good and fun

very fun but a little bit slow
(i think i am just a bit fast)

Starts off slow then builds up knowledge

The beginning is very slow but as it goes on it graduates and the small projects are the ones which are more beneficiary

funtech evaluation

i really liked how this course went, i learned a lot of new things about coding and python. this course has helped me realize that coding actually isnt that hard.

Funtech review

It was very good and the tutor taught me very well but the course was a bit long

Really fun and enjoyable

FunTech was really fun because I never thought i would like coding but I was proven wrong .

A really interactive course teaching lots of information, but with the fun only coming at the end.

I really enjoyed this Funtech course, but I had high expectations and this did not exceed them. However, I learnt as much in these two weeks that I would otherwise have learnt in a few months. This was achieved by how interactive this course was , and quite surprisingly so as it was online. However, interactive does not mean fun, and this course was not exactly fun. Because that would not be possible. But the end project was. It was a really fun way to end the course, and I really liked this. However, what massively let it down was that I could not view the content myself. This was a big shame, and I think the course would really benefit from that. If that changes, I would heavily recommend this course anytime.

Really sorry but we would not be able to share our curriculum

FunTech Response
The group finished the course early and so moved onto more advanced topics.
