Roblox coding classes in Germany

Plenty of children in Germany spend their afternoons in other people's Roblox games. A smaller number open Roblox Studio and make one of their own, and they discover very quickly that a game is a program: doors that open, coins that count, a scoreboard that cannot be faked. This page explains what that involves, which rules Roblox itself sets for younger players, and shows the first piece of real game code our students write about fairness.

Live classes since 2020 · 10,000+ students worldwide · games built in Studio, line by line

In one paragraph

Roblox coding classes for children and teens in Germany at Modern Age Coders are live online lessons in English, for ages 8 to 16. Learners build their own games in Roblox Studio and write real Luau scripts, from a door that opens to a multiplayer scoreboard that cannot be cheated. One regular mentor matches each child's pace and accent, in a group of fifteen to twenty or one to one.

Choosing a course

Which Roblox course fits your child?

Most children aged 8 to 12 start with the Roblox course. A younger child may begin in Scratch, and an older teen may move on to a full game engine.

The tools

What is Roblox Studio, and what is Luau?

Playing Roblox and building on Roblox use two different programs. The building one is free, and the language inside it is a real programming language with a public specification.

Roblox Studio

Roblox describes Studio on its Creator Hub as a free application available on Windows and Mac. It is where a game is built: the world, the parts, the lighting, and the scripts that make anything happen.

Roblox lists only Windows and Mac for Studio, and its setup page tells new users to sign in to Studio with their Roblox account. A child who only plays on a tablet will need a laptop or desktop computer for these classes.

Luau

Roblox calls Luau the scripting language creators use in Roblox Studio, and describes it as fast, small, safe and gradually typed, derived from Lua 5.1. Its source code is public on GitHub under the MIT licence.

Luau is typed text, not blocks. Children learn the same ideas found in Python or JavaScript: variables, conditions, loops, functions and events.

What a computer needs to run Roblox Studio, from Roblox's own setup page

Source: Roblox Creator Hub, Roblox Studio setup, and the Luau reference page; github.com/luau-lang/luau for the licence. Read on 3 November 2026.

In our lessons the mentor shares a screen and so does the child. A second screen helps but is not needed. What does matter is a mouse: building in Studio with a laptop trackpad is slow, and children get frustrated by it far more than by the code.

Roblox's own rules

What age rules does Roblox set for children?

Roblox now runs separate account types for younger users. These are its rules, from its own safety page, not ours.

Roblox Kids and Roblox Select accounts, as Roblox describes them
Roblox KidsRoblox Select
Ages, in most regions5-8 year olds9-15 year olds
Games availableOnly the lowest maturity ratings, Minimal and MildRatings up to Moderate
Chat in gamesOff unless a parent turns it on; then with users aged 5 to 12 and trusted friendsOn with age-appropriate users and trusted friends in the same game
Chat tab outside gamesOffAges 9 to 12 with trusted friends only; ages 13 to 15 also with friends of a similar age
One-to-one chat in gamesOff unless a parent allows itOff unless a parent allows it

Source: Roblox Safety Center, corp.roblox.com/safety, and Parental Controls, corp.roblox.com/parents. Read on 3 November 2026. Roblox says its users range in age from 5 to over 25.

What parents can control

Roblox's parents' page says a parent account can manage most settings of a child's Roblox Kids or Roblox Select account from the parent's own device. It lists screen time limits for children under 13, monthly spending limits, the maximum game rating, and turning chat off for users under 13.

To link a parent account, Roblox asks the parent to verify their age with a government-issued ID or a credit card. It also says that Restricted experiences are only available to verified users aged 18 and over.

How our classes fit in

Our lessons happen in Studio, on the child's own game, with the mentor on a video call. Nothing in the course needs chat with strangers, and nothing needs Robux.

We do not set up or manage a child's Roblox account. That stays with the family and with Roblox's settings above. Where a child wants to publish a game, the mentor explains what publishing means and the family decides.

Our first fairness lesson

How do you stop players cheating in a Roblox game?

In a multiplayer game every player's computer can be tampered with. So the game's real rules live on the server, which checks every request a player sends. This is the first script about fairness our students write.

The game

Coins lie around a map. When a player touches one, their computer, the client, sends a message to the server: I collected this coin. The server adds one to the player's score.

A cheating player can send that message for a coin on the other side of the map, for a coin someone else already took, or a hundred times a second.

The rule

The server believes nothing. It checks that the coin exists, that the player is standing next to it, and that the player is not collecting faster than a person could. Only then does it destroy the coin and add the point.

Every serious online game works this way. It is also one of the first ideas in computer security.

The Luau server script, for Roblox StudioLuau
-- ServerScriptService > CoinServer (a Script, so it runs on the server)
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local collect = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("CollectCoin")

local MAX_DISTANCE = 8   -- studs
local COOLDOWN = 0.5     -- seconds
local lastPickup = {}

local function onCollect(player, coin)
	if typeof(coin) ~= "Instance" or not coin:IsDescendantOf(workspace.Coins) then return end
	local root = player.Character and player.Character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	if not root then return end
	if (root.Position - coin.Position).Magnitude > MAX_DISTANCE then return end
	local now = os.clock()
	if lastPickup[player] and now - lastPickup[player] < COOLDOWN then return end
	lastPickup[player] = now
	coin:Destroy()   -- gone for everyone, so it cannot be taken twice
	player.leaderstats.Coins.Value += 1
end

collect.OnServerEvent:Connect(onCollect)
Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player) lastPickup[player] = nil end)

Put a RemoteEvent called CollectCoin in ReplicatedStorage, a folder called Coins in the workspace and a leaderstats folder with a Coins value on each player. We have not run this script outside Studio; the checks are mirrored in the Python twin below, which we did run.

Children often ask why the coin does not simply count itself when touched. It could, in a game for one player. The moment two players share a world, someone has to be the referee, and it cannot be the player who wants the points. To show the difference without opening Studio, we model the same server in plain Python: one honest player, Mia, and one player sending fake requests.

The same checks as a Python twinPython
import math

MAX_DISTANCE = 8   # studs
COOLDOWN = 0.5     # seconds

coins = {"c1": (10, 0), "c2": (30, 0), "c3": (50, 0), "c4": (200, 0), "c5": (204, 0)}

# requests the server receives: (time, player, coin, where the player really stands)
requests = [
    (1.0, "Mia", "c1", (12, 0)),
    (3.0, "Mia", "c2", (29, 0)),
    (5.0, "Mia", "c3", (55, 0)),
    (1.1, "Cheat", "c4", (0, 0)),     # claims a coin 200 studs away
    (1.2, "Cheat", "c1", (10, 0)),    # coin already taken
    (2.0, "Cheat", "c9", (0, 0)),     # a coin that does not exist
    (6.0, "Cheat", "c4", (199, 0)),
    (6.1, "Cheat", "c4", (199, 0)),   # same coin twice
    (6.2, "Cheat", "c5", (200, 0)),   # next coin a fifth of a second later
]

trusting = {}
for t, player, coin, pos in requests:
    trusting[player] = trusting.get(player, 0) + 1
print("If the server believes every request:", trusting)

taken, last, score = set(), {}, {}
reasons = {}

def check(t, player, coin, pos):
    if coin not in coins: return "no such coin"
    if coin in taken: return "already taken"
    if math.dist(pos, coins[coin]) > MAX_DISTANCE: return "too far away"
    if player in last and t - last[player] < COOLDOWN: return "too fast"
    return None

for t, player, coin, pos in sorted(requests):
    why = check(t, player, coin, pos)
    if why:
        reasons[why] = reasons.get(why, 0) + 1
        continue
    taken.add(coin)
    last[player] = t
    score[player] = score.get(player, 0) + 1

print("With server checks:", score)
print("Rejected:", reasons)

It prints If the server believes every request: {'Mia': 3, 'Cheat': 6}, then With server checks: {'Mia': 3, 'Cheat': 1} and Rejected: {'too far away': 1, 'already taken': 2, 'no such coin': 1, 'too fast': 1}.

What the server checks change (our example, eight requests from the cheating player's side and three from Mia)
PlayerScore if the server trusts everyoneScore with checks
Mia, playing honestly33
Cheat, sending fake requests61

The game, the requests and both programs are our own teaching example, run with Python 3 on 3 November 2026.

Look at the one coin the cheating player keeps. At six seconds they really were standing next to coin c4, so the server accepts it, as it should: checks must stop cheating without punishing fair play. Then the same coin arrives again and is refused as already taken, and coin c5 two tenths of a second later is refused as too fast. Honest Mia never notices any of this. That balance, strict for cheaters and invisible for everyone else, is what children learn to design.

  1. Guess first. Before running the twin, predict each player's score with and without checks.
  2. Tune it. Change MAX_DISTANCE to 3. Does Mia lose a coin she fairly collected? What is a fair value, and why?
  3. Find a new cheat. Add a request that passes every check but should not. Then add a check that stops it.
  4. In Studio. Build the coin map, add the script and test it with a second player in a local test inside Studio.

Beyond the game

Does Roblox coding lead to real programming?

Yes, if it is taught as programming. The ideas carry straight over to the languages children meet later at school or at work.

From a Roblox project to the wider idea (our course map)
In a Roblox gameThe programming ideaWhere it appears again
A door that opens when touchedEvents and handlersEvery app and website
A coin counterVariables and stateAny program that remembers something
An obstacle course with levelsLoops and tablesLists and arrays in Python or Java
The server checking a coinValidation and trustWeb servers and computer security
Typed LuauTypesJava, C# and TypeScript

In Germany, Informatik is not taught everywhere at the same age or in the same amount, and Roblox is not part of any school course. That is why we teach it as a door into programming rather than an end in itself. Children who have scripted a working game in Luau usually move to Python or JavaScript without fuss, because they have already met every idea in the table. A child who wants a free first contest can try the Informatik-Biber, which BWINF runs free for pupils from Klasse 3 to 13 and which asks for no prior knowledge.

Class times

When do Roblox classes run in German time?

Children usually come after school or at the weekend. The mentors are in India, a few hours ahead.

Sample class times in Germany and India
GermanyIndia, winter (to 28 March 2027)India, summer (from 28 March 2027)
15:4520:1519:15
16:4521:1520:15
Saturday 09:0013:3012:30
Sunday 12:0016:3015:30

Under the Einheitenzeitgesetz Germany is one hour ahead of UTC in winter and two hours ahead in summer; the clocks went back on 25 October 2026 and go forward on 28 March 2027. India keeps UTC+5:30 all year. These rows are examples only.

The free first class is booked in the time shown on your own phone or computer. A one-to-one child can agree a regular time with the mentor that fits around football, music or homework.

Milestones

From the first part in Studio to a published game

Our own milestones for Roblox learners, used to place children and report to parents.

Roblox coding milestones (ours)
StageUsually reachedThe child can
1. BuilderFirst weeksPlace, size and anchor parts and test a simple obby
2. First scriptsMonth 1 to 2Write a script that reacts to a touch or a click
3. Game logicMonths 3 to 4Keep score, run a timer and change levels
4. Client and serverMonths 5 to 6Use RemoteEvents and check every request on the server
5. Own gameMonth 7 onwardsPlan, build, test with others and explain a complete game

For children

Test your game as a cheater would. If you can break it, someone else will.

Read the error in the Output window out loud before you ask for help. Half the time it tells you the answer.

For parents

Ask to play your child's game, then ask how one part of it works. The explanation shows the learning.

Hours in Studio and hours playing Roblox look the same from the doorway. They are not.

Parents in Germany ask

Roblox coding classes in Germany: questions from parents

Are the classes in German?

No. Every class is live and taught in English only, by a mentor based in India who matches your child's pace and accent. Luau code itself is written with English words, so children practise both at once.

What age can my child start?

Children of about 8 and over, who can read and type simple words, start with the Roblox course. Children of 6 to 8 usually begin in Scratch and move to Luau later.

Does my child need a Roblox account?

Roblox's setup page says to sign in to Studio with a Roblox account. Roblox runs Roblox Kids accounts for 5-8 year olds and Roblox Select accounts for 9-15 year olds in most regions, managed through a parent account. The account stays with your family; we do not create or manage it.

Will my child chat with strangers in class?

No. Lessons happen in Studio on the child's own game, with the mentor on a video call. Nothing in the course needs Roblox chat, and Roblox lets parents turn chat off for children under 13.

Do we have to buy Robux?

No. Roblox Studio is free, and nothing in our course needs Robux or any purchase on Roblox.

What computer do we need?

A Windows or Mac computer. Roblox lists Windows 10 or macOS 10.14 and 3 GB of memory as the minimum, and recommends 8 GB. Studio is offered for Windows and Mac only, and a mouse helps a lot.

Is Roblox coding real programming?

Yes. Luau is a typed programming language derived from Lua 5.1, and children learn variables, conditions, loops, functions, events and client-server logic that carry over to Python, JavaScript or Java.

When are the classes?

Weekdays or weekends, flexible: choose your batch, or for a very personalised plan choose 1-on-1 at your convenience, weekend mornings or weekdays. Most children in Germany come after school or on weekend mornings.

How do we pay?

The fee is shown in euro at the European Central Bank reference rate and charged in US dollars, which your bank converts, so your statement may differ a little. The first class is free.

Can my child publish a game?

Children build games that can be published, and the mentor explains what publishing involves. Whether to publish is the family's decision, under Roblox's own settings.
