What Parents Say
About Kodecoon

“​At the beginning of the course, I was hesitant about how the trainer would manage my kids aged 8 and 6. Their trainer was able to manage their emotions in a professional manner and convinced them to behave well during lessons. He was able to use the appropriate terms to teach the basis of coding concepts that were easily understood by the class. My kids continued with him through the Scratch program. Now they are doing App development. I am proud to say that my kids have learnt sufficient concepts that will help them in their logic thinking and problem solving skills. Thank you Kodecoon!”

Parent of Rayden ★★★★★

“​我一直认为对于我们的下一代来说学编程是和学语言同样重要的事。学编程不仅培养他们的逻辑思维，而且丰富他们的想象力和创造力。敬衡以前常常花很多时间玩游戏，现在他更喜欢花时间编程，每次完成一件程序都带给他极大的满足感。他讨厌补习，但每周的编程课是他最期待的时刻。谢谢Kodecoon的老师带给他的转变，谢谢Kodecoon! 希望看到更多家长们带他们的孩子来学编程。”

Parent of Bryan ★★★★★

“​My son has been doing classes with them for the last 2 years and I am amazed at how much he has learned. The classes are super fun and interactive and the teachers are simply amazing. My younger son is eager to start too and I can’t wait for him to begin.Thank you and please keep up the good work of creating a new generation of Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg. Super recommend these classes to all parents.”

Parent of Vivaan ★★★★★

My kids started with Kodecoon earlier this year and they enjoyed the lessons conducted virtually.
Teachers and admin staff were all very professional and nice.
Virtual lessons saved us the hassle to trouble and the kids are able to create some fun games on their own.
Highly recommended.

Parent of Darius & Emma★★★★★

This is very good training academy. I asked my son to join just to have a taste of programming… thinking he can switch to other lesson non programming in the future. But have been years that i havnt been able to switch him out from programming ^^ he loves the teacher (shout out to Kishore!) and he likes the friends.

Parent of Xavier★★★★★

Loved the holiday sessions conducted for my 12yo!
Full week of coding camp but time well spent! ^^
My son had fun, was engaged and made great friends even though everything was fully virtual (which was great because it saves me time from commuting!)

Parent of Joash★★★★★

My Daughter gotten a surge of overwhelming interest back after the visit to Kodecoon Academy open house on Saturday and requested to go again the next day. Conducive environment where coding and robotics are concerned. The future is here for AI! A joy to watch her enthused for learning.

My son joined the holiday program in Sept and December and he enjoyed it so much. It was fun to have like minded friends to do this together. The teachers were so patient. My son asked for extended lesson as he was not able to catch up and without any hesitation, they went the extra mile to help him and make sure that he completes his assignment. Thumbs up for the Teachers!

Ryan has been taking coding lessons for more than a year with Teacher Ken and Teacher Deddy. He really enjoys attending weekly lessons and declares that his Teacher Ken is the coolest teacher ever. I am impressed that the educators at Kodecoon make an effort to connect with students at a personal level and guide them individually when help is needed. A big thank you to all the dedicated teachers at Kodecoon Academy!

I’m so honoured to see your company’s growth and I believe the best is yet to be!

Serene L★★★★★

I love Kodecoon Academy classes because they do their best to help nurture their student to fulfil their potential in learning how to code. The teachers make the lessons so positive and funny yet understandable.

Kodecoon Academy has given me opportunities to sharpen my presentation skills and also to converse with real programmers in working in certain fields.
I love Kodecoon classes because it has clearly organised lesson plans that allowed me to understand and absorb the most out of each lesson. Teachers in Kodecoon are very understanding, by being able to tweak lessons and ensure everyone regardless of age is able to learn at the same pace. Their extensive knowledge in not only programming, but experiences in the real-life fields has that they share during lessons is really helpful as I get to know more than just the lesson for that day.
