Is the trial lesson a general overview of all subjects?
We are honest with our students. The trial lesson is conducted by your future teacher, not a sales manager. That’s why during the trial lesson, your child will explore one chosen learning direction in depth — not all subjects at once.
How does the trial lesson work?
The trial lesson lasts 50 minutes First, your child meets the teacher and gets to know them in a friendly, welcoming atmosphere. The teacher introduces Game Development, explains the learning program, shows exciting example projects, and then they create a small mini-project together. The trial lesson is completely one-on-one with the teacher. We recommend that one of the parents be present during the lesson.
Who are our teachers?
Our teachers are experienced IT specialists and professional programmers who have been carefully selected to work at our school. Only one of 7 candidates becomes a teacher at our school.
What is the price of the lessons?
The cost depends on the chosen course and subscription plan. Book a trial lesson, and our team will explain all the pricing details, discuss available options, and help you find the best solution for your child!
What is required for studying?
Everything is simple! For your studies you will need a laptop or PC with Internet access. But even if you don’t have a PC, some courses can be taken on a tablet.
