Virtual 3-Week Java Camps for Teens
Java is a popular and versatile programming language for coding applications. It’s also used in data processing and a powerhouse in AI and machine learning libraries. In our Java camps, teens learn the fundamentals of object-oriented coding and the structure of a Java program.
Why teach your child Java?
JavaIs Beginner-Friendly for Teens
Java is a powerful coding language, but it has a syntax similar to English that enables teens to learn quickly. It’s designed to have few dependencies, so it’s an ideal choice for teens.
Teens Won’t Outgrow Learning Java
Even though there are newer languages out there, Java has remained popular due to its versatility and robustness. Java is widely used and will continue to be popular in the future.
Java Is Applicable In the Real World
Java is used in almost all fields and websites like Amazon and LinkedIn. It’s also used to run mobile applications and it continues to evolve with advancements like AI.

Introduction to Java
3-Week Camp | Ages 14-18
In Introduction to Java, the first course of our AP CS Prep track, students build a foundation in programming using Java. They’ll learn to work with variables, data types, arrays, loops, conditional logic, methods, and more, all while building engaging programs in our project-focused curriculum. The fundamental programming skills they’ll learn in this course will help them to succeed in a traditional AP Computer Science A course. After completing this course, students are ready to tackle Object-Oriented Programming (another essential skill for the AP CS A exam) in Intermediate Java, the next course in the AP CS Prep track.
Intermediate Java
In Intermediate Java, the final course of our AP CS Prep track, students learn the fundamental principles of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). They’ll learn how to model real-world data using OOP concepts like encapsulation, inheritance, composition, and polymorphism. While this course focuses on OOP in the Java programming language, most ideas are transferrable to any mainstream object-oriented language. After completing this course, students will be well-prepared to enter a traditional AP Computer Science A course and hit the ground running!
