Coding and Maths Classes: Frequently Asked Questions

Modern Age Coders is an online school for coding and maths, founded in 2020 and based in Kolkata, India. We teach live classes to students aged 6 to 67, from a first Scratch game to Python, Java, web development, AI and exam maths, and have taught 10,000+ students from 25+ countries. Families rate us 4.9 across 547 Google reviews. Read our story.

Modern Age Coders mentors: the same people who teach our regular batches every day, not a separate sales or demo team. The school was founded by Shivam Khemka, and the teaching method is open for anyone to watch on how we teach.

Four things. Every class is live and a full hour. Batches are small, 5 to 10 students or fewer. Coding and maths are taught as one subject, because programming is applied maths. And our real, unedited classes are open to watch before you pay. More in why families trust us and we teach you how to think.

Yes. Every class is online and families from 25+ countries study with us. Fees are shown in your own currency. There are pages for families in the UK, the US, the UAE and Canada.

Call or WhatsApp +91 91233 66161, email connect@modernagecoders.com, or use the contact page. If we miss your call we are probably teaching a class, so a WhatsApp message is the quickest way to reach us.

Each class is a live video lesson with a mentor and a small group, or one student in 1-on-1. The mentor explains an idea, the students write the code themselves, and the class works toward a real project. Between classes, students practise what they learned.

Every class is one hour. Group classes and small batches meet 8 times a month, which is twice a week. 1-on-1 classes meet 4 times a month in India and 8 times a month for students outside India.

A group class has 5 to 10 students and a small batch has 3 to 4. You can also choose 1-on-1 classes. Read small batches and 1-on-1 classes to see which suits your child.

Live. Every class is taught in real time by a mentor who can see each student's work and answer questions as they come up. Recordings are a backup for missed classes and a way to see our teaching before you join, never a replacement for the live class.

Yes. Students build real projects, from games and websites to apps and AI tools, and explain their own code in class. See what students have made in Student Labs.

Yes. We teach maths from early number sense to college level, including mental maths, Vedic maths, school maths for every grade, and exam preparation such as JEE Foundation, Olympiad maths and SAT Math. We also teach the two together; see why coding and maths together.

Everyone from 6 to 67. Kids aged 6 to 12, teens aged 13 to 18, college students and working adults each have their own courses. Start from the pages for kids, teens, college students or professionals.

Six is a good age to begin with block coding such as Scratch. Most children are ready for a typed language like Python around 9 or 10. It is never too late, and adults of every age learn with us. Read the best age to start coding.

No. Beginner courses start from zero, and each course page says what, if anything, is needed first. If your child already codes, the mentor will suggest where to start so they are not repeating what they know.

Scratch and other block tools for young children, then Python, Java, C, C++, JavaScript, HTML and CSS, TypeScript, SQL and Go, Swift, Kotlin and Flutter for apps, plus frameworks such as React and Node.js. The course atlas lists every course.

It depends on age and interest. For ages 6 to 8, Scratch Coding for Kids. For 9 to 12, Python and AI for Kids or Web Development for Kids. For teens, Python for Teens is the usual first step. Our guide to the best online coding classes walks through the choice by age, and you can always ask us on WhatsApp.

Yes, at every age. Children can start with AI Literacy for Kids, teens with AI and Machine Learning for Teens, and adults with Generative AI and AI agent courses such as Codex and Claude Code for professionals. See also AI classes for kids.

Yes. There are courses for ICSE Computer Applications, CBSE and ICSE Computer Science for Classes 11 and 12, AP Computer Science A, IB DP Computer Science and CBSE Class 10 Maths.

Yes. Adults study full stack development, data structures and algorithms, data science, generative AI and AI agents, usually alongside college or a job. See the pages for college students and professionals.

Yes, in three ways. Watch real, unedited recordings of our classes for free on how we teach. Join the free demo waiting list from book a demo. Or book a Priority Live Demo at a time you choose.

The free demo is a waiting list. Mentors take free demos only when they are not teaching live, so it can take a few weeks and we cannot promise a date. The Priority Live Demo is a one-time paid class with a slot you pick, usually today or tomorrow. Free demo vs priority demo compares the two honestly.

Press a "Book a priority demo" button, enter a name, email and WhatsApp number, pick an hourly slot between 10 am and 8 pm IST, and pay the one-time fee online. Your slot is reserved straight away and a mentor confirms it on WhatsApp within the hour. Step by step: how to book a priority demo.

It is a real lesson. The mentor finds the student's level with a few questions, sets a small problem in coding or maths, coaches the student through planning and solving it, and ends with a working result and honest feedback for the parent. More in what happens in a demo class.

There are two free libraries: one for kids' coding, ages 6 to 12, and one for teens and adults that also covers maths. On a computer or laptop, open a library from how we teach, choose Watch Recording and sign in with Google. Some classes are in English and some in Hindi. Watch a class end to end, as if you were in it, because each part builds on the last.

Fees are monthly and depend on the format you choose: group class, small batch or 1-on-1. They are the same for every coding and maths course. The fees for your country are shown in the panel above and on the pricing page.

Online, by UPI, card or bank transfer. You can pay month by month, or pay quarterly or yearly.

Yes. Paying quarterly or yearly costs less than paying month by month. Ask us for the current discount when you enrol.

Yes, at any time. Tell us and the new format starts from your next billing cycle.

A new enrolment can ask for a refund within 7 days of the first payment, as long as no more than 20% of the course has been completed. Renewals and 1-on-1 sessions already taught are not refundable. The full terms are in the refund policy and the cancellation policy.

A recording of the class will be provided, so nothing is lost. Students in 1-on-1 classes can also reschedule a class if they tell us in advance.

Yes. Give us at least a week's notice and we will hold your place until you are back.

Group classes and small batches run at set times, and you choose from the batches open for your child's course and level when you enrol. 1-on-1 classes are scheduled around the student.

A laptop or desktop computer with the Chrome browser, a steady internet connection and a quiet corner. A phone or tablet is fine for watching a recording, but not for writing code.

For most beginner courses, little or nothing. Your mentor tells you what, if anything, to install before it is needed and helps set it up in class.

For coding, it is often better. The student writes code on their own computer from the first class, and our batches are smaller than most classrooms. What matters is that the class is live and small, which ours are.

Parents receive regular progress updates from the mentor about what has been covered and how their child is doing.

Yes. Courses include regular practice and tests, and many end with a final exam.

Yes. Every student receives a Modern Age Coders certificate on completing a course.

The mentor slows down and explains it another way, in class, before moving on. That is far easier in a small batch or 1-on-1 than in a large class, and it is one reason we keep batches small.
