"My daughter looks forward to each and every class. They keep her engaged and often she continues to experiment with the code after class is over. I would recommend to any student at all interested in technology as this is the way to get them introduced at a young age."

"Coding is a great starting block for any kid to teach discipline and especially attention to details. Thank you MetaCoders for giving my boys something to look forward to during the tough stay at home days!"

Allison S.

"It was actually better than school. At school, we have a Zoom class for 30 minutes and then we do the work on our own. Here, the coaches were more on hand."

Stanley M.

Age 15

"I’ve been missing an organized class over the summer. The coaches were very nice and helped you when you needed help. I liked that you could choose your own projects, and you got to create your own characters."

Arwen M.

Age 13

"My learner really enjoyed this class. The instructor was lively and kept the class exciting."

Roberta T.

Parent of an 11 year-old

"When school ended last year, there was no real distance learning in place for the kids. These lessons are what I would expect distance learning to be like. The instructor was on screen and sharing a screen of the lesson that was going on. It was very well done."
