Mostly good

The camp was super fun.
The tutorial videos were a bit lagy though and for the metasploit exercises it didn't specify what we had to do which made our teacher very confused and frustrated. Overall great camp.

FunTech Response


The video's may have lagged due to the internet connect at the time.

Sorry about the metasplot exercise, I shall pass this onto our development team to check.

Glad to hear hear you thought that overall the camp was great!

During these five days of coding, I learnt many different things. At first, I wondered what I would do with print("Hello World!") but I soon realised how many different possibilities there are to coding, other than games. The teachers were quite fun but I can still speedrun champion island faster th

Brilliant Coding

On the first day I was very nervous but as it progressed I felt better and better. I made friends and thought the coding overall was good. They are very creative and the projects are very fun. It was more fun than work.

Python

The course was good. I learned a lot a lot on the course. However it was quite intense, even though there were several breaks, I felt like the day was very long and only a half an hour break to run around was not enough. However the course was defiantly worth it in the end for my final project.

FunTech Response


Our courses are packed full of learning. 

We do have two 15 minute screen breaks in the morning and afternoon and then an hour for lunch.

Lunch we allow 30 minutes to have your lunch and therefore only have half an hour for activities, sadly we would not be able to increase this further.

Glad to read that you thought the course was definitely worth it!

Aubreys review

I learnt new and interesting skill. But I think we should move from section to section more quickly. Also the computers worked fine apart from a crash every now and again

FunTech Response


The challenge we have is that the entire class has to move at the same pace, however, those that finish early are given extension exercises to stretch their knowledge.

Sadly, the computers do crash if too many items are added - but that is a learning experience to balance how many items you can add based on the memory. 

The laptops that are provided for this course are high spec with large amounts of memory, however... add to much and they will still crash!

My fun time at FunTech

My experience was incredible and the tutors were helping me with all of my laptop issues but my experience was ruined by one person, George.

FunTech Response


Very occasionally, we have a student for whom the course is not right. We did speak to the parents and then gave him another day to improve his behaviour. However, when that didn't happen he didn't return for the third day.

I am sorry that this ruined your experience, but we have to give the children a chance.

This course has high spec laptops, however, adding so many elements to your game, sadly will make it crash.

But am happy to read you had a fun time at FunTech.

i found the length a day a little long but i got a lot done and i had a good time i learnt a great amount i think that the teachers were great i had a good time but some times the teachers werent as knowlegable as i would hope i think overall good but not amazing as it says in the title

FunTech Response


I am extremely sorry to hear that you didn't think our teachers were not as knowledgeable as you would have like. However, looking at the lesson, tutor and your daily feedback, I think you were asking for aspects that were outside of the scope of the course. 

We are going to look at exploring the next level of this course which will cover the concepts that you would have liked to have covered in this course.

Glad to see that you you did a lot and learn a great amount.

great but computer issue

it was sooooooooooooooooooo good and i loved the mods we made i really liked that we made mobs and biomes (now i know why you call it FUNtech.
but i am really annoyed that i had to reset everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! except for that it was great :) :)

FunTech Response


Well firstly I am glad you loved the course.

Sadly, adding so many elements to your game, will make it crash and therefore you were asked to reset your game. 

Had we not asked you to do that, I think you would have had more problems going forward. Sorry.

My time at 3D game design.

Alright, get ready for an essay.
I've done funtech 3 times, and out of all of those times, 3D game design was the most fun. It was engaging, fun, and I made some friends. I enjoyed alot learning how to make 3D games using unreal engine. I had an amazing time and I loved the pack lunches the most :)

Thank You

I would like to say thank you to my teacher Jamie as he coped very well with the crazy person in the class who didn't do any work and messed around too much. Jamie helped me learn how to use Unreal Game Designs and explained the things that didn't work.

FunTech Response


I am sorry for the more challenging student in your class. 

We did have several words with the family, however, sadly they were unable to cater for him, but I feel that Jamie and the Lead at the location handled this well and ensured the rest of the group were not interrupted by this.

I am happy to hear that you Jamie supported you in learning how to design in Unreal Game Engine.
