 Since we started in 2016, growing seven-fold from a two-men team, our vision has always been consistent - to adopt a student-centred approach in our pedagogy to promote a proactive learning environment. In this increasingly fast-paced digital world, students should not be afraid to learn and try new things. At Kodecoon Academy, students are able to effectively learn through an active class discussion and apply what they have learned to projects in their own areas of interest. It is with our students’ passion for technology, our team’s passion towards education and our parents’ unwavering support for Kodecoon Academy that we are able to rank ourselves as #1 for having the best in-application based coding classes.  For that, we thank every student, parent and partner who made it possible for us to participate in your (or your child’s) coding journey. As we come into this new year, we took some time to listen to what our parents have to say about us. We are thrilled and really humbled that so many of our parents took the time and effort to leave very detailed and meaningful reviews on our Google and Facebook page.  Check out some snippets below:
“Excellent teaching, and really dedicated coaches here. The teachers are a really special bunch. They love what they do - it's clear - and they are great at teaching. What's best is the way they handle the kids well. I get the feeling that there are clear and loving boundaries in place to enable a respectful, safe, and yet exciting learning environment for the children. I really liked the specific and insightful feedback that I've received regularly from coaches at Kodecoon. The individualised approach and service offered is really refreshing and nothing like I've experienced before at other learning centres. =)” - Lynette C, Google review (Jan 2020) “You know you have selected the right school for your kids when you hear them asking for more lessons. Kodecoon has interesting coding lessons delivered by dedicated and patient teachers.” - Fern Fern, Facebook review (Jan 2020) “If you want to heed Tim Cook’s advice to let your child learn how to code, Kodecoon is the place to go. The lessons in Kodecoon are very well-structured, ensuring to instil the correct concepts of coding in every learner in the proper order, regardless of the language the child is learning. But it is not all about work and no play! With the progression of each lesson, children are encouraged to be creative yet logical whilst putting into application the concepts they had learned into completing exercises and mini assignments such as creating their own game, with their own gameplay and rules. What makes Kodecoon stand out is also the team that is made up of dedicated teachers who are passionate about coding (and teaching it) and imparting that skill to every child that comes to Kodecoon. If you allow your child any screen time at all, then make it worthwhile at Kodecoon. And who knows, your little one may very well go on to become the next tech wiz of the century!” - Joyner W, Google review (Dec 2019) “Highly recommended! My son was always looking forward to his Saturday coding classes to learn new things and meet his friends. He was able to develop his creativity and his confidence while applying all his learnings from Kodecoon! Kudos to Deddy and his team! All the best!” - Cat Lagmn D, Facebook review (Dec 2019) “Teachers from Kodecoon are such a patient,loving and caring teachers. They teach coding in such a fun and easy for children to understand and pick up coding skill fast. Getting a replacement lesson is never a problem with Kodecoon. Teachers are so passionate with their teaching, students are their younger friends” - Dan Qi, Google review (Jun 2019)

Can't decide if you should sign your child up our trial class? Perhaps this simple quiz will help! What sets Kodecoon apart from other coding schools, is that we take the interest that your child exhibits in coding and programming very seriously. This means that if our Kodecoon Instructors notices that your child is not keen on learning more about the digital world (and that is completely fine!), we would not recommend our coding classes to them. After all, we understand that each child will have their own passions, and who knows, they may show their interest a couple months or years later!  Take this simple quiz to find out if you should sign your child up!
