it was a bit boring at the start but it got better by far
FunTech Response
The start of the course can be a little as you say 'boring' as you have so few letters and only a couple of games, but as you progress and unlock more letters and games, it becomes a lot more engaging.
Sadly we can't change the format. :)

basicaly sitting in front of a computer screen, apart from activities no different from getting an account online at home. average experience. lead supervisor jma was a bit stingy
FunTech Response
I am sorry that you did not enjoy the course. However, I have to back our lead supervisor as you were trying to play games during the course that we felt were highly inappropriate.

The reason we use laptops rather than desktops, is because most children work on a laptop. Plus if you can type on a laptop then typing on a desktop is very easy!

I am very sorry that you found it hot.
Sadly, it was an unusually hot week and we ordered one fan per two students for all our locations.
However, as you mentioned you were super hot, we did get a dedicated fan for you and made sure you were regularly hydrated.
Glad you had fun though.

There are several methods of writing code. I hear that Lem, your tutor, preferred another method so am delighted that you were taught both methods.

FunTech Response
Sorry to hear that the course wasn't for you. We don't often find this, however, wish you had told us earlier in the week as we may have been able to swap you to another course.
The evening activity options were: Scuba, Dodge Ball, Games Night, Movie Night.
For Movie Night, I believe the choice was Cast Away (Older ones), Encanto (Junior Ones).
I appreciate that you wanted to go straight to your room after dinner, however we do think it’s important to either socialise with the others or just chill in the common area.
