My teacher was nice and she helped me… My teacher was nice and she helped me when I have questions. I learned about how to create a second scene and added a few edits to my little red riding hood story. It was really fun

Perfect for what we were looking for. H (age 8) has been jealous of his brother’s (K 13) online coding classes (another site). They didn’t have anything that we felt was appropriate for H’s level. We wanted something introductory with a lot of guidance. As a child of pandemic learning, H hasn’t had a lot of experience navigating in groups. We gave the Game Maker (series 1) a try and it was a hit. They were focused not only on coding (concepts) but instructional support/guidance. His teacher Nicole is great at keeping the kids on track and inspiring them to come up with ideas. I LOVE their “brain dump” model. It is a useful skill that can be applied to other aspects of life. IF I had to find a flaw, I would say that I wish that range of the students (maturity and knowledge) were closer. There were definitely students who were more advanced than H and some that were behind him. But it’s not a huge deal and a good opportunity to develop important social skills. We are on our second series of the Game Maker classes and have already harassed the staff about coming up with a third series ;) TLDR; perfect fit for what our 8 year old needed. This class may not be heavy on coding language, but it teaches coding concepts which is just as useful, especially for the younger minds/beginners. Lots of support for those who need it in group learning. Would highly recommend for similar students.

They renewed my subscription without my… They renewed my subscription without my approval (I had cancelled before the renewal date) and refuse to refund it. They blamed it on Apple, but I have documents from Apple that it was not charged through them! DO NOT GET THIS APP! Now I have to worry that they will do it again next year!

My 11 year old loves it and is the only… My 11 year old son loves it and is the only class he gets excited for ahead of time. He wants to be an engineer but struggles with not being perfect and what I like about this class is they play games each has made and then they give their experience and opinions. It’s good for kids who struggle with things like feedback. His sister is 8 and it’s also her favorite part of the day. She loves using her creativity to make things others will also use. She wants to do more with Codespark and we most likely will.

My kids both really enjoy CodeSpark My kids both really enjoy CodeSpark! The material is suitable for both my 5 year old and 8 year old who both have about one year of coding experience from other apps. We have tried several coding apps and they outgrew most of the others already, but they still enjoy CodeSpark very much! We recently tried one of the courses they offer and the staff was awesome and the course was fun!
