Our class size is small, usually between 6-8 students. We have found this as the optimal size for successful group work and individual attention.
What happens if a student misses a class?
All our class sessions are recorded. Students can watch the videos and get caught up prior to their next class.
Is there any special software that is needed?
No. Students will be using our browser-based code editor to write real code. They don’t need to download or install special software.

Can students use tablets?
Unfortunately no. Because they will be writing typed-code and seeing their work in real-time, they need a computer or laptop with a separate keyboard.
