My kid is too young. Will he/she be able to understand topics?

Our courses are designed for kids ages 6+. All our classes are taken by education experts who’ve taught young kids before. Our courses are divided into beginner, intermediate and advanced, and are paced as per the kid’s speed.

What are the benefits of teaching coding to kids?

Coding teaches kids important STEM skills. It increases concentration and develops persistence to solve problems. Coding teaches kids to be creators of technology, rather than consumers. 95% of kids ages 8 and below have more imagination than that of 18+ adults and we couple coding with creativity and imagination to create games and apps.

What is the cancellation/refund policy?

You can cancel anytime. You only pay for the classes you’ve already taken and we will refund the rest. We believe in our process and there are zero cancellation charges.
