Powered by GoogleHello World Studios is an amazing coding camp for kids of all ages. My daughter, a high schooler, was worried beforehand that the camp would teach things she already knew. Its curriculum definitely goes beyond what it taught at school, and even has current world applications as well. The camp environment is phenomenal, and the connection between student and mentor, and staff and parents, is strong. My daughter learned a great deal from this program, not only in coding, but in cooperating with people she has never met before. She gained many friends, and they plan on going into a long-term project together with a mentor from the camp. And all this happened in one week!
Such an amazing program for students in all levels that really helps the the kids get exposed early to valuable life long skills in the tech field. My son really enjoys being a part of Hello World every summer and has come a long way in his comprehension to coding thanks to them. Hello World really is a top notch program that will impact every child's life in it in such a beneficial way.
Hello World is a phenomenal program. My son, 11 yrs, has taken the after school class for two years and has attended summer camps for two summers. The instructors are the perfect mix of educators and coding experts who create a curriculum based on the latest real world coding needs. The projects the kids do are not “dumbed down” to kid level, yet are structured and paced so that anyone new to coding can be successful from day one. Kids can work at their own pace and instructors are always happy to help with any special projects/ideas a student may want to work on. Since starting Hello World, my son has become passionate about coding. He is now more engaged in school and has very concrete goals for his future thanks to this program. Hello World also does a great job of teaching the importance of collaboration and teamwork which is crucial for today’s screen loving kids who may not have had as much social interaction in the past. Lastly, the program “tracks” the student’s progress so parents can monitor growth over time. I highly recommend this program. The ability to code will be an asset to any future career and the earlier they learn, the easier it will be!
My son has participated in both after school classes and summer camps with Hello World. The programs, instructors, course work and operations are top notch. They far exceed other programs offering similar experiences. The kids are challenged, met at their individual level and can progress at their own pace all within an established framework of robust curriculum. My son is only 10 but has learned valuable real world programming techniques that he has applied in other projects. He's also been exposed to many different professionals that leverage technology in their work and it has really broadened his perspective. I highly recommend Hello World.
Hello World classes and camps have been extremely valuable for my kids. The program is top quality from start to finish - from the instructors to the behind the scenes staff to the online workspace and tools, and the curriculum, everything is so well done. All camps and classes allow for students from beginner to advanced and all are accommodated at their level. In addition, students can work at their own pace and take as much time as they need or go as far as they're able with the material and there is always plenty of help and instruction available. We've been so impressed with not only what the our kids have learned in these classes but how their entire outlook of STEM has changed - it's like a whole new world of opportunities have opened up to them. I consider these programs an excellent investment - completely worth your time and money!
