Geekedu - Coding Class for Kids — Science

My 12-year-old son attended the Geekedu coding class for science in Toronto, and overall, it was a solid experience. The instructor, Sarah, was incredibly engaging and personalized the lessons around my son's interests in science and coding. He learned the basics of Python and even managed to build a simple program that simulated a weather forecast, which he was really proud of. The small group size allowed for great interaction, and my son made a friend in the process, which was a bonus. However, there were some long lines at pickup, which made things a bit hectic at the end of each session. It could have been more organized. Despite this minor annoyance, I believe that the positive aspects outweigh it. If your child is focused and enjoys creative projects, I would recommend giving it a try, especially since they offer a free trial class.

My 12-year-old daughter has been attending the Geekedu coding class in Toronto for the past month, and overall, it's been a positive experience. The instructor, Jake, is enthusiastic and really interacts well with the kids, which helps keep them engaged. She has been working on a fun science project that integrates coding using Python to create simple simulations. It’s great to see her excited about learning new concepts in both science and programming. The small group size allowed for personalized attention, and my daughter even made a new friend in class. However, I did notice that the kids spend a lot of time on screens, which might not suit all parents' preferences. The weekly price is reasonable for what they offer, but it would be nice if they included some non-screen activities occasionally. Despite this, I would recommend Geekedu for kids interested in coding and science, especially those who enjoy a creative challenge.
