Testimonials from Teachers and Principals

One of the nicest parts of the week of programming was that some of my students who struggle in my Math class were the leaders when it came to programming. What a confidence boost for them! To have the students who do well in Math asking these other kids who are just squeaking by in class for help was just amazing. I was very proud of so many of them. Thanks for everything!

What I love about Codesters is the way it engages students with no coding experience just as easily as those who have had multiple opportunities to code, on various platforms. The curriculum is designed in such a way that, although students are free to work at their own pace, lessons are still meaningful and engaging to the whole group.

The environment provides a rich, differentiated experience for all students, which has allowed all my students to excel...I’ve watched students who continuously struggle in math come alive and make connections with the programming tools.

My students are highly engaged and are excited about progressing through the program -- some log on to work on the lessons at home.

I have been using Codesters to teach my students coding for the past two years and it has opened the eyes of my students to a whole new way of seeing the world.
