Coding Camps for Kids & Teens | 2021 | Online Summer Programs & Camps

Coding camps & programs

A coding camp for kids offers instruction in Python, Scratch, JavaScript, C++, and more. Courses are structured, and typically run a week in length, with sessions available in multiple time zones (5 consecutive days, Monday-Friday). With low student to instructor ratios, classes blend personalized learning and time for kids to socialize with new friends. (summer and spring break camps, and 1-on-1 online coding tutors also available.)
