theCoderSchool is a national coding-school franchise, founded in Silicon Valley in 2014 and now over 70 locations, that teaches kids ages 7 to 18 to code in Python, Scratch, JavaScript and more through private and low-ratio classes. Its Torrance location is at 1884 1/2 S Pacific Coast Highway, serving the South Bay. Summer camps run five days with three hours of instruction a day, offered as a morning or an afternoon block and taught in person at the school. Camp themes span video game development, robotics, Minecraft, Roblox, JavaScript with HTML/CSS and mobile game development, with roughly six campers per instructor and camps usually taught by the school's year-round Code Coaches.

★★★★★C COur child loves coding classes! Our coach is a great balance of encouragement and teaching how to problem solve; we especially appreciate getting the weekly progress reports: it gives us a peak into the amazing learning going on every week.
★★★★★Emily BurnettThe instructors are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. They teach at my child’s level and keep her engaged and progressing towards her goals. We’ve tried a few other coding schools and this is hands down the best in the business!
★★★★★Alice HsuMy kids have been with The Coder School for the past 3 months, and they LOVE it there! When they came home after their first session at The Coder School, they were so surprised that they learned more in one hour than they did their entire year at Code Ninjas. The instructors are all friendly and very knowledgeable. The curriculum is flexible and guided by the student’s interests. The kids work with the same instructor each week, which helps build rapport and allows the kids to expand on concepts. After each session, the instructors write a very detailed summary of the work accomplished and provide homework suggestions. I’ve been very impressed with the coding knowledge that my kids have gained in such a short period of time. Communication with the staff is always timely, and if scheduling conflicts arise, it’s very easy to reschedule a session. Overall, I would highly recommend The Coder School for both experienced and inexperienced coders.
