Program Overview

Scratch, built by MIT, is where millions of children write their first real program, and for good reason: logic is learned by snapping colorful blocks together, and the results move, sing and play back immediately. This live online course takes children aged 6 to 12 from zero to genuinely capable: 35+ projects across three months, from first animations to complete games with scores, levels, clones and multi-sprite coordination.

The pace is honest and kid-sized: two live classes a week plus 2 to 3 hours of playful practice completes the course in 3 months, and children who want more time take up to 4, the batch adapts. Every week ends with something to show the family; every month ends with a friendly mixed challenge that quietly revises earlier skills; and the course ends with a final project exam, a game demo plus a short viva, that decides the certificate. Real skills, real games, real pride.

What Makes This Program Different

  • Every single week ships projects: 35+ games, animations and stories across the course, built by the child, not the teacher
  • Real Scratch depth: variables, lists, clones and broadcasts, the concepts that make later Python feel familiar
  • Kid-sized honest pace: 3 months at 2 classes a week, with a 4th month in hand for children who want more practice time
  • Monthly mixed challenges revise earlier skills on purpose, so nothing fades between weeks
  • A final project exam decides the certificate: a game demo plus a friendly viva, with a free retest after revision if needed
  • Small live batches capped at 10, grouped by age, with mini-batch and 1-on-1 options
