Program Overview
Schools assume children can format a document, build a presentation and manage their files, but nobody actually teaches it. This live online course does, properly, for children aged 7 to 12: Windows fundamentals and tidy file habits, digital art with the built-in creative tools, real Microsoft Word skills, PowerPoint presentations with restraint and style, first Excel spreadsheets with formulas and charts, and OneNote and Teams, the tools their school life increasingly runs on.
Everything is project-based: children produce school reports, posters, family newsletters, quiz presentations, pocket-money trackers and a final integrated project they present at demo day. The pace is honest and kid-sized: five months of teaching at two live classes a week, with a sixth month in hand for children who need more practice. Classwork in every session, a small homework task after every class, a mixed challenge at each month’s end, and a final exam, a project demo plus a friendly practical test, that decides the certificate. Real skills, really tested, immediately useful at school.
What Makes This Program Different
- Project-based from week one: real school reports, presentations and trackers, not button tours
- Current tools, honestly taught: Windows 11, the free Office web apps, Photos and Clipchamp, no outdated software
- Typing and file hygiene built in: the quiet skills that make every later computer subject easier
- Kid-sized honest pace: 5 months at 2 classes a week, with a 6th month in hand when needed
- Real assessment, gently done: monthly mixed challenges and a final practical exam that decides the certificate, with a free retest after revision
- Small live batches capped at 10, grouped by age, with mini-batch and 1-on-1 options
