BetaCoders is a coding academy for children ages 8-17. We provide an excellent coding and robotics curriculum, tools, and mentorship for a quality educational experience. Students learn how to code while building robots and games in fun, creative, and safe learning environment. Our highly talented educators have an average of 15+ years of experience in computer science and robotics.
BetaCoders is much different from a typical coding academy. Kids don’t like lectures, and going to another school after school can sound dull. Instead, our students learn coding through play. We give them real projects to tackle, such as building games and robots while learning coding principles and techniques.
Our courses are designed for children as young as 8. No experience is required to be enrolled in BetaCoders. We accommodate all types of students and experience levels.
As many as you like! We have flexible programs to accommodate the needs of almost every family. A typical program consists of 2 hours a week for a total of 8 hours a month.
Learning to code helps increase perseverance, improves memory, teaches patience and confidence, nurtures creativity, and helps kids think! It helps enhance their capacity to reason, solve problems thoughtfully, and make effective decisions from a very early age. Coding helps sharpen the analytical and cognitive skills of kids.
