Does your child have what it takes to be a programmer? Does he or she like to spend time on the computer in a productive way and discover how the applications and games he or she uses work? Enrol them in one of our online programming courses for kids and teens and help them take the first steps towards a successful programming career.
Visual Programming Course/9-11 years old
In the Visual Programming course, children learn the basics of programming in Scratch, a language designed specifically for children. They learn to create simple projects, from basic animations to real games and cartoons.
What do children learn in this course?
- Develop algorithms using sequences, operators, loops, coordinates and variables
- Check their own and other colleagues' programs to correct errors, like a real tester
- Be part of a team: they will distribute tasks and take responsibility for their work
- Create their own projects and present them like a true professional
Teachers teach them to understand the logic behind coding without complicated programming languages. Children get to develop their own programs in Scratch.
They will go through the full cycle of developing creative projects that will use them as future adults: from idea and initial planning, to teamwork and presentations
Will create a portfolio of their projects, including an animated business card, voiceover cartoons and multi-level games with various obstacles
This course consists of 4 modules and at the end of each module, children will present a personal project. A future environmental campaigner can create an online litter recycling competition, a Fortnite fan can create their own version of the game, and a budding polyglot can make their own training programme to help them learn a foreign language.
Game Design course/10-12 years
In the Graphic Design course, children are introduced to the world of visual communication, starting with the basic tools used by graphic designers and the secrets of controlling a user's attention.
What do children learn in this course?
- To use their knowledge of composition, colour, light and rhythm in practice.
- Create raster, 3D and vector graphics, make collages, process photos and draw people
- Solve the real challenges faced by graphic designers: from card layout to designing visual identities
- Develop elegant design based on UX and UI principles
No prior art school education or proven design skills are required for this course. All students need is imagination and interest to be creative.
Students get to apply their knowledge immediately, by developing their own creative projects, which will form the basis of their portfolios as future graphic designers.
All the tools studied on the course are used free of charge, so your child will be able to continue their design work independently once they graduate.
Python Start Course/12-14 years
In the Python Start course, children learn how to write lines of code in Python, one of the world's most popular programming languages. This course is a solid start in programming.

- Write programs in Python, understand the syntax and basic data types (in 2 months)
- To create useful yet easy-to-use computer applications (in 5 months)
- Develop multi-level games using professional Python libraries (in one year)
- Work in teams and create their own projects, from idea to presentation (at the end of the second year)
- Work in a team and create their own projects, from idea to presentation (at the end of the second year)
They get to apply the knowledge they learn in practice, creating programmes for study, entertainment and everyday life.
Children start creating games and applications from the very first lessons, studying the tools and terminology they need as they progress.
In the form of a game, students go on the journey from interviewing in an IT company to becoming a top programmer, developing project-based thinking
By fulfilling orders, students learn how to allocate tasks in a team, plan their time effectively and work towards goals
Working in an IT company means real orders! Students get to develop automatic calculation programs, advanced games or photo processing applications. Each project marks a new step in the understanding of programming.
Python Pro course/14-17 years
In the Python Pro course, teens learn how to write Python programs and test their skills in some of the most coveted IT fields, from game development to machine learning expertise.
What do teens learn in this course?
- Develop 3D games in the most popular categories, just like real game designers
- Create websites using HTML and CSS, like real web developers
- Extract useful information from large data sets and build models, like data management specialists
- Launch mobile apps and present their products to a live audience, like real start-up entrepreneurs
- Create a developer portfolio that employers can be proud of: with 3D games, websites, bots and apps
In the course they will learn to solve real cases: how to send an encrypted message to a friend or add a scoring system to your game.
The real work experience is as real as it gets, and teens learn how to create IT products from A to Z: project ideas and plans, task distribution and teamwork, testing and presentation.
The aim of the course is to launch an interesting application on the market, where students have fun throughout the course. There are lots of interesting tasks: from developing a mobile phone habit tracking tool to automatic spam detection on social networks.
