Minecraft Mods

Great Course. My daughter really enjoyed it.

Python Coding

Funtech clearly put a lot of work into translating their camps into online courses. This was a great way for George to develop his love of coding and we were very impressed by the way his progress was carefully monitored to ensure he got the most from the course.

My boy loved this camp and he learned a lot

Amazing camp!

My boy is seven years old and although he is obsessed with Minecraft we have not been allowing him to play regularly because we worry about game addiction. We thought learning how to mod would be a good way for him to do something he really wants to do while being a creator rather than just a consumer.

Oliver was an amazing teacher and our boy learned so much every day. He developed a lot of familiarity with the PC, using the keyboard and mouse, running programs, and finding his way around a developer environment. Every day I have came home from work and he was eager to show off his latest inventions. He retained a lot of his knowledge and was able to independently create things at a later date.

Overall, I give this camp my highest recommendation!

How to have a happy teen!

If you have a computer made kid, this is exactly what you need. He’s got himself up and ready to go every morning with no pressure from us, and he’s really enjoyed everything he’s learnt. I don’t understand any of it but since my son is happy and enjoying his time, what more could I want?

Great experience

My son was a very reluctant participant at first, very nervous about being in a virtual classroom. However he thoroughly enjoyed the experience and learnt so much. He has even asked if there is an advanced level course he can attend to continue his learning.

My son loved the virtual camp, he was so excited on the first day he woke at 3am! His enthusiasm continued for the whole camp (2 wks of half days). Thankfully he didn't wake early each day! The learning was well managed and from my point of view worked well over the video calls.
It was very interactive and the group discussions appeared active. The content from modding blocks to equipment and fully automated farming had him engaged .

3D Game Design

He really enjoyed the course, and thought the teacher was 'brilliant'. He has enough knowledge now to carry on learning on his own, but is looking forward to being able to take another course in the future if there's one that builds on this one.

Very Motivating!

Our 9yo daughter took a 2 week morning Roblox studio course. She had played Roblox a lot but never made any games herself. This course was a fantastic introduction. She loved it so much that she did not want to take breaks!

The instructor was excellent and there was a good balance of independent work, teaching (often via videos) and discussion. It occasionally seemed like some students dominated the conversation though - it would be good if the instructor could manage this better.

Overall, highly recommended.

Python Game Developer virtual camp

Our son had a great time doing this online course and finished with a game which took me back to the good old Space Invaders days. The tutor, Joe, was attentive and responsive and, overall, the two weeks were a great success.

Great follow on course

This was an excellent follow up course to the Python Coder. It enabled the coding skills acquired in the coding course to be utilised to create a fun game. Our son really enjoyed it.

We have been wanting our son to do a camp with FunTech for a long time but unfortunately they didn't have a location in our area. The virtual camp offering has really opened up the courses for everyone. Adam, our son, absolutely loved it and couldn't wait to join the course each day, the tutor was brilliant and Adam was enthusiastically showing me what he had done each day. One day he hadn't quite grasped the concept fully and FunTech proactively gave me a call offering a 1-2-1 session to ensure he wasn't missing out in any way, it really is a first class operation. We have already booked another camp and are looking at term time as well, we are excited to see where this goes.

Scarlett very much enjoyed her week on this course but it was marred by technical issues due to using the virtual computer we had paid extra for. These hitches resulted in her missing chunks of the course and losing all her work which definitely lessened her enjoyment. Clearer instructions or actually making sure that the games are kept so they can be improved on at the end of the week would have been a big plus. I was impressed with how they were able to make friends even though they weren't there in person. I thought the tutor managed well with what was clearly a difficult task to do remotely and Scarlett was grateful for the extra time she was given at the end of the day, one afternoon, when she'd missed a lot due to the technical hitches.

We were incredibly impressed with the course and its content, but absolutely blown away by the amazing support our daughter received. She is somewhat of a perfectionist, prone to bouts of anxiety and the occasional ASD meltdown. After a lesson in which she panicked, the Funtech team called us to offer a recap of the lesson and some extra support - this was all it took to reassure her. She has looked forward to each lesson, has learned tons and has finished the course brimming with ideas that she now knows how to put into action. We will definitely be booking with Funtech in the future! Thank you to all the team!

My son was completely engaged for the whole two weeks!

My son has loved his coding camp. He’s been engaged and interested for the full duration. His only disappointment was that the virtual machine kicked him out 15 minutes after the class finished meaning he didn’t have time to share with us the things he had created. FunTech Response Oh goodness,

FunTech Response
Oh goodness, I am sorry. Had we known we would have gladly left his Virtual Machine on for longer.
We’ll be in touch tomorrow to let you have access to the VM for the weekend so your son can share his achievements with you.

My daughter loved the python coder camp

She enjoyed herself in the 2 week course & learnt a lot from Scott who was very patient with the beginners.

Brilliant - my daughter thoroughly enjoyed

I think the biggest compliment I can give is that for two weeks, during the mornings at least, I heard literally nothing from her! (Aside from the occasional chatting and laughter with her group.)

She has learned new techniques which will make Minecraft even more interesting for her. It was only her first camp but she wants to do more already both virtual and on-site (once things are back to normal).

Great job guys, thank you very much.

My son ,12 years old has attended this camp. He loved it. It was impressive to see him sitting 3:30 hours everyday for two weeks on his own and learning. The trainer was friendly and was very attentive. at the end I can say that we have benefited a lot in improving his confidence to code in python and working through his projects. Now he seems quite eager to take the next step.
I would also like to call out pro-activeness of FunTech team, on our first class we got late to login and Trainer called on my mobile phone to ensure that everything is okay or if we need any help. He also gave individual help through remote learning platform and answered all the questions that my son came up with. As a dad I am happy with my investment.
Moving forward I would also like to see, if FunTech handover some follow up projects to kids and establish some sort of community forum where these children can stay in touch and keep working through those projects in order for them to go for next level camp.

Joining the course from Nairobi, Kenya, we were not sure how accessible this would be, but it was easy! The teachers were very patient with the kids and even allowed for extra lessons when needed! We couldn't ask for more! I will definitely consider enrolling the kids at funtech again.

Excellent virtual course

My 14year old son had a good basic grasp of Python, but really found himself accelerating on this game development course, and it has really further ignited his interest in programming. He found the instructor very helpful and enjoyed the whole 2 weeks.

Python course camp

Nikhil liked the python camp. It was easy to follow and broken down to small junks to follow through. Tutor 30 Adam D did a fabulous job and keeping my son focused on the teaching and programming. Thank you Funtech .

Very Engaging

Indie Game Developer

Ayaan had ‘the best time ever’ during this course. He developed a fantastic game with a leader board! Wow! He learned so much whilst having an insane amount of fun!

He was so disappointed when the course finished! He can’t wait to do more camps next year!

Minecraft with Mods

Ayaan had a super time doing this course. He learned so many new skills and enjoyed it thoroughly.
He said his tutor was amazing and great teacher.

He has already asked me to sign him up again next year!

3D game design

Great course which Archie enjoyed AND learnt some skills from. The course leader, Sam, was excellent and had the patience of a saint.

Java coder

Yousef has learnt many new things on this course.
There was no assessment at the end to see what he's absorbed or notes taken to ensure that he doesn't forget them.
I know the teacher asked them to take notes but he didn't follow up to see that they did.

Above and beyond

Thank you for the virtual Java course: our son was enthusiastic throughout the week, learned a lot and was eager to share his projects with us. Given that I required individual support sessions to pre-install the required software I was very grateful for your exceptional care and service. When our internet connectivity let us down one day during the course, your representative followed up with a call and offered an extra one-on-one time for our son to catch up on the missed learning the very next day, which I believe goes above and beyond a usual level of support. We were big fans of Funtech residential camps before the lockdown, but having tried the virtual camp now, I can hundred percent recommend it to any parent!

Our son has been talking about creating a mobile phone games for a few years, so he was very happy to finally have an opportunity to do so. He doesn't usual enjoy a camp where he doesn't know anyone, however, being virtual meant he had a chance to get to know them all immediately and settled in quickly. He's been very excited to show us what he has done everyday, and even spending extra hours outside of the camp hours prepping for his own project. Hope you keep the virtual camp even after the pandemic, as we are not very close to the physical camp location, and it worked brilliantly.
