Jennifer says:

The instructor was very engaging and helpful. We loved the email reminders so we could be on time. My son learned so much and can\'t wait to take another class with this instructor. Excellent communication between the instructor and students. The instructor made the class easy to understand. Python is \"real\" coding. My son was excited to create a game with moving parts.

Yulei says:

Just want to pay some compliments to Mr. Abhijeet H. Jason loves his classes. He laughs at whatever he says. It really helps to keep him learning. Thanks!

Jonathan says:

Great Python beginners class - hoping to continue to the next level. Excellent instruction that my child very much enjoyed. Thank you! My child loves his instructor, Abhijeet H. This was the same instructor for his advanced 6/7th grade math class - which he also loved.

Vienna says:

My son was introduced to new math concepts he didn’t know and he had fun. I like that he is challenged and wasn’t intimidated. He felt that it was both easy and hard. And he enjoyed it. It is a good way to keep our children engaged. Once my boys learn something, they think they know everything. Only being in this group class, did they realize they need more learning.
