OOP Todo App
Command-line todo app using classes, inheritance, file storage. First real software design.
For parents of Class 8 students · Age 13
Coding for Class 8 — the year they become real coders.
Class 8 is the turning point. Old enough for OOP, React and deployed apps; young enough that board exams are still a year away. Our 1 hour live classes make this year count — by Class 9, your child walks in ready.

Why this level, specifically
Class 8 is the last quiet year before boards matter.
Class 9 and 10 bring serious board pressure. Class 8 is when a real portfolio can be built without stress. Students who use Class 8 well arrive at Class 9 confident, not catching up.
01 / Time
Before Class 9 board CS pressure
Class 9 brings formal CS in both CBSE and ICSE. Starting real OOP and web work in Class 8 means they enter Class 9 ahead, not behind.
02 / Ownership
They drive their own projects
At Class 8, most students bring project ideas. A weather app, a school portal clone, a Discord bot. We build the skills around their ideas, not the other way around.
03 / Community
GitHub, Discord, hackathons start
Class 8 is the right age to open GitHub. Real commits, real pull requests. By Class 10 the profile looks genuine.
Projects, not lectures

Tools
Six Class 8 projects for a real portfolio.
These are the projects every Class 8 student of ours keeps on their GitHub. Real enough for a future college essay, small enough to actually finish.
Interactive Portfolio
React component-based portfolio site, deployed with a real domain.
Flutter Journal App
Daily journal mobile app with local storage. Runs on their own phone.
Sentiment Classifier
sklearn model classifying tweet-style text. First supervised ML project.
ICSE-friendly Java OOP
For ICSE students — BlueJ-style OOP project matching Class 9 expectations.
First GitHub Project
README, commits, branches, a merged PR. Real source-control habits.
The curriculum path
Four stages across Class 8.
Class 8 is where we shift gears. Longer projects, deeper concepts, real tools. Still paced around school.
Term 1 · Python advanced
OOP, modules, error handling
Classes, inheritance, try/except, imports. Proper software structure. Ends with a Python project that looks like real software.
- classes
- modules
Term 1–2 · Frontend real
HTML, CSS, JS, React intro
Responsive layouts, DOM, first React component. By the end they can spin up a React app and push to GitHub.
- js
- react
Term 2 · Specialise
App or AI track
They pick: Flutter app track, or sklearn AI track. Real work begins. Weekly progress. First deployed piece of software.
- flutter
- sklearn
Term 3 · Portfolio + DSA start
Public presence
GitHub polished, a readable portfolio site, and a gentle intro to arrays and linked lists.
- portfolio
- dsa
Two formats, same 1 hour live class
Option A
Option B
Pick the class format that fits your child.
Same curriculum. Same teachers. Same recordings. The difference is whether your child learns best with one teacher's full attention, or alongside 4 to 6 classmates at their level.
Live 1-on-1 Online Class
One teacher, one learner, the full 1 hour. The teacher adapts pace in real time — slowing down on tricky concepts, speeding up where your child is already fluent. Best for focused learners, specific exam prep, or fastest progress.
- 1 teacher, 1 student, 1 hour per session
- Pace fully adjusted to your child
- Focused help on school projects and exams
- Flexible timing — you pick the slots
- Every class recorded and shared with parents
₹2,499/ month · 8 sessions
Live Small-Group Online Class
4 to 6 students at a similar level, one teacher, 1 hour per session. Learners move faster when they see peers solve problems in different ways. Supportive, never pressured. Best if your child enjoys learning with others.
- Small groups of 4 to 6 similar-level learners
- 1 hour live session, 2 sessions per week
- Peer project reviews — students present to each other
- Fixed schedule, same classmates each week
- Class recording and parent progress report

Common questions from parents
Before you book the demo — answered honestly.
Short, plain answers. If your question isn't here, tap the callback button at the top and a human will get back to you the same day.
Is Class 8 the right year to go deep on coding?
Absolutely. Class 9 brings formal board CS. A Class 8 student who builds a real portfolio now enters Class 9 with confidence, not stress.
Does this help with Class 8 ICSE Computer Applications?
Yes — especially our Java track. Class 8 ICSE typically starts Java basics and our ICSE-aware teachers cover exactly what schools test.
CBSE Class 8 CS — covered?
Yes. CBSE Class 8 typically covers Python, HTML and basic algorithms. We go deeper with real projects.
Do you teach React at Class 8?
Yes — after JS basics are solid, usually by month 3. We keep React bite-sized. Not Redux, not Next.js yet.
Can my Class 8 child really build a full-stack app?
A small MERN app in 8–10 weeks, yes. A todo tracker is the usual first one. The pattern scales.
When does DSA make sense?
Start at Class 8 with arrays and strings in Python. Move to C++ at Class 10–11 for serious CP.
How does this work with coaching classes?
Two 1-hour sessions a week fits alongside even heavy coaching. Most Class 8 students do weekends.
Free demo?
Yes. One full 1 hour live class. No card required. Refund in 2 weeks if the fit is off.
