"iDTech for all the four years that I have came here I have felt openly welcomed by all the staff members and other campers. They make sure that in every project that you do, that you will strive for success and reach it. At iDTech they bring the quote "You learn something new every day" to life. Overall I love iDTech and definitely recommend it for all children who are curious about all the tech that lies around us.
