FunTech Review

Very happy with the camp. Cillian really enjoyed it and is keen to do more coding now.

Engaging and fun

Thanks for another great week at FunTech. Arthur took his developer skills to the next level with Unreal Engine and is very proud of the games he has developed. It was also great to see at the Parent Showcase, how engaged the tutors were in his development and what he had produced.

Oustanding

Theo had a fantastic time learning all about Roblox! He created some truly impressive and complex games, and he was incredibly proud of what he accomplished. We were thoroughly impressed by the staff especially Anas, who was exceptionally attentive and passionate. His enthusiasm really motivated...

The set up was easy and when there were problems due to tech, the team were really helpful. Our son thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing and made some good friends at the same time.

A huge thank you to the entire team for an incredible experience for our son, David! From start to finish, the camp was full of fun, learning, and fantastic support. After the very first day my son said: “Mom this was the best day of my life” ;)
Special shoutout to Hal and Kyle — David couldn’t stop talking about how amazing they were. In his own words: “They’re the best, the best it can be!”
He had an absolute blast, and it was inspiring to see how much he enjoyed both the creative side of Minecraft Mods and the kindness and encouragement he received. He’s already looking forward to coming back!
Thank you again for making his summer so memorable!

My son enjoyed the Java course, it was organised well and kept him thoroughly engaged all week.

My 9 year old loved this camp. His teacher was fantastic (as were all the staff), they took plenty of breaks during the day and he loved the learning (he ran out of the house full of enthusiasm in the mornings and looked disappointed when we picked him up for being early). The car journey home was filled with stories of what he had done.

We are very happy with the Creative Tech course that our daughter Elisa Sophie attended this year with Funtech. Despite joining from Rome, with only a basic command of English and some technical issues that prevented us from switching her system language from Italian to English, she was followed and supported with great care and attention.
The entire team went above and beyond to help her reach – and exceed – her goals, making the experience truly rewarding. Elisa Sophie learned a lot, had fun, and developed new skills in a well-structured and engaging environment.
It was a wonderful experience, and we’re definitely looking forward to continuing this journey.

python coder camp

great week spent learning to code put-on. my son thoroughly enjoyed it and came out feeling confident. The teaching and support teams were great and very helpful. We will be signing up for the next stage.

This camp very much exceeded my expectations in every way. The first day 'felt like school' but was a necessary part of the camp because it was the 'how to' part. My son learned some new skills, met some nice children and I felt was safe and cared for whilst I was able to go to work nearby. The two tutors, Max and Paul, were just about the best people you could ask for. Super bright uni students. Kind, approachable and so,so encouraging of my son. My son noted that if they didn't know something, they contacted 'HQ' who would get back immediately, so you get the impression that this whole camp is backed up behind the scenes by highly competent people. This is the first time I've booked with Funtech. It absolutely won't be the last. Thank you all (especially Paul and Max) for giving my child a great experience, in a great location.

The cybersecurity week camp was pretty extensive, complex and very deep. VirtualBox with Kali linux, wireshark, linux skills, a hash function cracking. It exceeded my expectations as a parent. It felt pretty hard for my daughter, as she was completely new to the topic and to linux itself, but even then she liked it and understood quite a lot.
Also, communication during the process was easy and efficient.

Our son recently took part in a virtual camp over 5 mornings during week 1 of the summer holidays. Everything went smoothly and communication was great. We love that the parent and student portal is easy to navigate and it was super easy to swap his dates when another engagement ended up clashing. Our son really enjoyed the course and said his tutor was nice and friendly. He woke up early everyday and got himself all set up so he was definitely keen and enjoying himself. I could hear him asking relevant questions and chatting to his peers. We would definitely recommend FunTech and it's a massive bonus that childcare vouchers are accepted!
We will be booking again.

I was at a bit of a loss to identify suitable holiday activities for my son and I came across Fun Tech and this programme on line. It has not only kept my 11 year old son busy all week, he has come away at the end of the week with new skills with regard to game designing.
It has been one of the very few courses that my son has logged off at the end of the learning session for the day and still wants to tinker with the programme after attending a chunky training session

My son has a short attention span - however this course kept him interested
Parker, the Facilitator was brilliant and managed the group very well. Although a little pricey the money was very well spent

My 12 year old son attended this week's camp and said it was his favourite course yet. We've been coming for several years and the projects are always interesting and well taught, and this still applied with the new 'virtual' format. He also commented that the balance of coding/breaks is better, making it easier to pay attention. Will certainly be back next summer.

Daughter enjoyed this

My daughter really enjoyed this class and asked if she could follow it up with Roblox Code Developer next year. Definitely recommend it.

Brilliant, thank you

Thank you FunTech for another great camp. Some of the content was really complex but Hope did a brilliant job explaining it and finding different ways to make sure the students understood it and that the knowledge was properly embedded. And the building challenges were really fun.

Virtual Python OOP

Fantastic course. The tutor was engaging and extremely helpful. My son learned a lot. We will be back! Many thanks.

Python Coder

Highly recommended. My sons python aptitude has greatly increased which will put him in good stead at school. He enjoyed his lessons and looks forward to other sessions in the future.

Julius absolutely loved his Python OOP course! He was 100% engaged from start to finish, thanks to an amazing teacher who clearly had a real passion for both the subject and the students. The lessons were clear, fun, and perfectly paced for young learners. The support he received made a big difference—every question was welcomed, and encouragement was constant. Julius came away not only with new coding skills, but also with a real confidence boost. It’s rare to find a course that clicks so well with a student. We’d recommend this to anyone—100% worth it!

Fun techstic!

The Funtech team of tutors, coordinators and brainstormers behind all the courses and levels are outstanding.
My son has been happy to learn year after year at exact the right pace set for him.

Amazing

The virtual camp was fun and informative. Lots of new things to learn for me, and the teacher was always available to answer my questions and I had lots of fun in creating my first game!

Minecraft mod developer

Ayman really loved the course and would love to do part 2. His teacher Parker was really nice, helpful and fun. He said he learnt lots.

Great class

I didn't have to do anything for the class following the mandatory pre-class checklist.
My daughter was entertained throughout the course and she didn't need much between 9 and 12:30.
Looking forward to the second week of Roblox Designer next week.

Both my children attend FunTech and can't speak highly enough of the service provide. They always ensure the kids understand the material and provide extra support if needed. They are highly organised and responsive as well when there are queries.

My son has just completed his GCSE exams, and although we are still waiting for the results, our experience with FunTech has been very positive. The lessons were well-organised, and the extra revision sessions and resources available through their online portal were particularly helpful in the lead-up to the exams.

The teachers and staff have been so supportive and patient, including through the ups and downs and they had the patience of saints when my son was at times late with his homework! They consistently encouraged him and helped him stay on track. The pep talk in the lead up to the mocks was nothing short of miraculous (wish I'd recorded it so that I could reuse it!). My son has put in an enormous effort and it's been great to see him mature and get an early 'taste' of what it means revising for and sitting a GCSE (he did his one year early).

A friend recommended FunTech to us (their son is now at Cambridge University) and, based on our experience, I would have no hesitation in recommending FunTech to others looking for engaging, reliable and effective support for GCSE Computer Science preparation. The team's encouragement, availability and the structured approach made a noticeable difference in my son's confidence and progress throughout the course.

Jake has transformed our son’s interested in the topic and prepared him excellently for his GCSE exam. Our son was not naturally interested in coding or computing and Jake’s patience and ability to explain things from different angles really changed that. It has been appreciated we were not just paying for an hour of tutoring but for the support wrapped around that, preparing and marking materials and even, just ahead of the exams some calming final explanations around tricky topics. Thank you FunTech, thank you Jake. Appreciated by both our son and ourselves.

Another brilliant week - thank you

This is the third course we have done and it was as good as we hoped. The course leader did a great job of supporting everyone’s needs whilst keeping them all engaged and was super helpful when something wasn’t working for us.

Thanks for this, the course was great and William loved the trainer. I was impressed with the demo at the end of it, it certainly brought William's creativity out and he expanded on his game after the course.
