If your teen already has a GitHub with a few projects, **skip into** [DSA](/courses/problem-solving-dsa-masterclass-teens), [AI & ML](/courses/ai-ml-masterclass-teens), or [Competitive Programming](/courses/competitive-programming-masterclass).

A Class 10 student who finishes the board year with a portfolio, not just marks, walks into Class 11 with a real sense of identity. That is worth more than any single exam result. 01 / Board-safe ### Fewer, deeper sessions Our Class 10 track runs 1 hour once or twice a week, with a pause during the mock exams and pre-board weeks. School always wins the calendar; coding earns its place around it. 02 / Identity ### A portfolio before streams Class 11 stream choice is easier when the student has already tried real coding projects. At least they know whether CS truly fits them — not just "arts or science?". 03 / Signal ### Early GitHub matters later Commits from Class 10 look very different from commits started in Class 12. Colleges and internships notice longevity. Projects, not lectures ## Six projects a Class 10 student can realistically finish. Designed around board-exam calendars — each one is doable even in a busy term, and each is board-portfolio-worthy.

Used by their own classmates during prelims. flutterflashcardspeerThe curriculum path ## Four stages across Class 10 — board-aware. Each stage fits the school calendar. We pause for pre-boards and resume after boards. No full-year death march. Term 1 · Python + school CS ### Rebuild foundations cleanly Python revisited with OOP, plus whatever the school CS paper covers. Sample papers done together. Board preparation and coding practice become one thing, not two. - python - oop - board Before pre-boards · Full stack ### Small deployed app A MERN or Flask + HTML mini-app finished before pre-boards. Not a giant — something small that actually ships. - mern - deploy - github Pause · Boards ### Support mode only During pre-boards and boards we pause the curriculum. If they need help with a CS paper question, we are on call — but no new content. - board focus Post-boards · AI or DSA ### Pick the next track The summer after Class 10 is gold. We use it for a serious AI project or a DSA rampup — whichever matches the teen's plan for Class 11. - ai - dsa - summer Two formats, same 1 hour live class ## 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. Option A ### 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 sessionsOption B ### 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 **₹1,499**/ month · 8 sessionsLevel comparison ## Age 14 vs 15 vs 16 — board pressure changes things. The main difference at 15 is not what they can do — it is what they have time for. | What to expect | [Age 14](/coding-for-14-year-olds) | Age 15 (this page) | [Age 16](/coding-for-16-year-olds) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **School load** | Moderate | Board year — heavy | Class 11 — heavy | | **Sessions / week** | 2 | 1–2 (flexible) | 2 | | **Project scope** | Month-long | Compact 3-week projects | Longer again post-boards | | **Main goal** | Portfolio build | Portfolio + board | Stream-level depth | | **DSA level** | Intro | LeetCode easy | Full LC easy/medium | | **Downtime** | None | Pause for boards | Exam-block pauses | Words from parents and students ## Class 10 parents — not kidding about the time crunch. Genuine reviews from parents of 15-year-olds navigating Class 10 boards. I was nervous about any non-school class in Class 10. They paused for pre-boards on their own and resumed after. Son finished Class 10 with 94% and a deployed web app. I was wrong to be nervous. UUsha P.Parent · Mumbai · 1-on-1 The teacher aligned with ICSE Class 10 Java syllabus week by week. Her Java board marks went up. She also built a Flutter revision app her friends used during prelims. Rare win-win. JJyoti S.Parent · Pune · Group We did only one 1-hour class a week through the year. Even that was enough for him to finish 50 LeetCode problems and a study-tracker website. Small and steady works. KKamal R.Parent · Chennai · 1-on-1Common 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 10 the wrong year to start coding?Not at all — but the pace is different. We do shorter, deeper sessions and pause during pre-boards. Starting at 15 is still a good 2 years ahead of Class 12 portfolio needs.Will coding affect board marks?Our Class 10 students finish boards with equal or better marks than their classmates in our experience. The focus coding teaches — planning, debugging, patience — often lifts academics.Do you cover Class 10 CBSE CS / IT paper directly?Yes. The teacher keeps the CBSE code 402 / 165 syllabus open and aligns weekly. Sample papers solved together, viva preparation included.What about ICSE Class 10 Computer Applications?Fully covered. Java with BlueJ, OOP, arrays, sorting. Our teachers know the exact question pattern ICSE asks. See also our [ICSE Computer Applications Class 10 page](/computer-applications-icse-class-10).Can we skip coding during pre-boards?Yes — and we suggest it. We also offer a free 1 hour "emergency" session if they are stuck on a school CS topic.Is DSA realistic in Class 10?Yes, at the easy-medium level. 50 curated LeetCode problems across the year is a very reasonable target and builds confidence for Class 11.Do you coach for the Class 10 CS project and viva?Yes. We help pick the project, write the report properly, and prepare for the viva with likely questions. Many students score full marks on the project component.Is there a free demo?Yes — one full 1 hour live class, no card. Refund on unused portion within 2 weeks.Book a free 1 hour demo class ### Try one session. Decide after. Fill the form. Our counsellor calls you within 3 hours, understands your child's pace, and schedules a real demo with a real teacher.
