Good computhing school. Nice and passionate teachers such as Alfred. Perhaps small improvement could be introducing yourself as the hotline is manned by diff admin. This helps to avoid any mis-information. Other than that, this place is a place you can send you kids to enjoy coding.

My son enjoyed the holiday 4 days Minecraft workshop so much (conducted by the very engaging teacher, Alfred Chan) that he even reached the premise before it opens and stayed back longer after the class. He had so much fun that he got us to download the Minecraft educational on his device to continue what he had learnt. He is interest to continue more coding classes after this! Highly reccomended.

I have been learning coding with Computhink since last year when I was in Primary One. The classes are always enjoyable, and I have made many friends. I am thankful especially to Teacher David and Teacher Alfred for guiding me to improve my coding skills, and allowing me to try out more advanced courses. I hope to win prizes and awards in coding some day soon!

Teacher Jordan lessons are very interactive and engaging. He make his lesson interesting for students to learn. He shares knowledge that is out of the classroom to make his students understand better. Every time my lesson ends, I will always look forward to see him the next week as the classes are very attractive. He lesson are fun in order to teach the students better technique at coding.He makes us think out of the box to answer the python questions better.

Computhink is the correct place to come to if you want your kids to be taught by patient and dedicated teachers. Teacher David taught my elder daughter some years ago, and now, he teaches my son. My boy loves attending the lesson every week.

This is 1 enrichment Bryan asks for!He enjoys & each time returned home bright eye & bushy tail (even though lesson was in late afternoon & after a long school day) showing his sis what he had learnt.Mr Lee & his teachers are warm & approachable.

My gal enjoys the lessons conducted by Computhink. They have responsible and friendly teachers. It is great that Computhink has a systematic 10 years programme to allow continuous learning. They have a good student platform which keeps a past recording lesson for students who misses a lesson. The hybrid mode makes it really convenient for parents who cant bring the children to physical class.

My child of 9yrs old love the 4 days robotics holiday camp. He likes constructing models with lego blocks and operate them to performing different tasks. He likes the tutor there too.

Blythe Tay

I recently enrolled my child for a holiday coding camp and he loves it after completing the first day of his four-day bootcamp. The curriculum is well-designed, starting with the basics and gradually progressing to more complex topics. It builds a strong foundation while developing problem-solving and logical thinking skills. The lessons are hands-on, with practical exercises that reinforce concepts and teach critical-thinking skills. The curriculum balances theory and practice, making learning engaging and enjoyable. After each lesson, there is a recap of what was taught, ensuring that the learners clearly understand the topic covered. With small class sizes, individual attention and personalised guidance are provided. Computhink Kids SG is an excellent choice for young aspiring coders, I would recommend it to parents seeking such an opportunity for their child. Thank you Code Mentor, Ms Kai Qing!

This is the only class my son looks forward to every week. CS on its own is not an easy subject to teach. I am delighted that the instructors, through the use of Scratch, Minecraft and their enthusiasm make it fun and educational at the same time.

David is a patient and dedicated teacher who always listens and allow a child to be curious and learn at his own pace. As a result, my son, Nicholas, developed a love for programming, all thanks to a good role model like David. Kudos to Computhink!

My 9 yr old enjoys the Minecraft CodeThinker 5 days camp fully. As he was attending class, I was right outside waiting for him and I could hear laughter and see him focus throughout the 2 hrs session. What can be better than learn through play. Thank you for making it interesting.

Bryan Lee

I think learning basic coding concepts in a game format is interesting & drives more engagement from the kid. My boy really enjoyed it!Thank you David and Jia Xiang for creating positive learning experience for my child! 🙂

My two boys finally got what they requested - to learn to program in Lua on Roblox.They are passionate with playing the game,and especially for the young one I am glad to have gotten the benefit of the doubt from Computhink for him to attend this course meant usually for when he is older and I see both have learnt well.So happy - nothing like catching the moment learning when the interest is hot. The rest is up to them.

My girl and her classmate liked it a lot. They can practice it at home as well, if you register your own account. But really need to control the time they play the Minecraft education.

Learning Tools

At Computhink, our teaching approach is enquiry based and our students are encouraged to think deeper and ask questions about what they are learning, and why they are learning it.

The best way to learn to program is to learn it the fun way! Students are taught scenarios and challenges that are age-appropriate and in topics they can relate to.

1. Computhink Student Portal

All Computhink Students enjoy the use of the Computhink Student Portal. The Student Portal is similar to the SLS use by MOE schools and is Computhink’s proprietary system for our student’s learning needs, where students will log in every day, and find notes, exercises, short videos, and video recordings explaining concepts for the day.

2. Safe and Welcoming Environment

Students have the choice to attend their classes onsite. Online hybrid classes are available on request.

Onsite Classes are conducted in our spacious classrooms in Computhink.
Online Classes are conducted on Zoom Virtual Classrooms. Login and account instructions will be emailed to you.

3. Online Coding Platform

Minecraft Education Edition accounts are provided (free) for students during the workshop. This is where your child will have their own account, and where they will code their daily projects.

Students joining the Python Code Combat will be guided to create a free account.

4. Challenges and Assessments

Students will be given close guidance for their coding challenges for their workshops to test their understanding. Our lessons are enquiry based to help your child learn better.

Students will be tested on their understanding via challenges to ensure they are following well.

Here’s what your child will experience in the Minecraft Build Challenge Workshops:

Have fun while learning to code in the exciting fun-filled workshop.

Challenge themselves to think of solutions and to code them.

Learn about the exciting world of technology, computers and the internet.

Be guided by our experienced and dedicated programmer trainers.

Spark curiosity and creativity and let your child create anything they want!

Attending the Minecraft Build Challenge Workshops will help your child to:

Experience what programming is, and how it is used professionally to solve problems and create solutions.

Encourage your child to want to learn how things work and develop a creator mindset.

Discover if your child has a talent for programming, and encourage them to specialise their talents in technology.

Inspire your child to want to learn more and create their own game and animation programs!

FAQs

Item1

Is there any pre-requisites for joining this workshop?

This workshop is suitable for beginners and no prior programming experience is required.

Do I need to prepare anything for this workshop?

Onsite Workshop: Laptops will be provided for students attending our onsite classes. You may bring along a jacket and a water bottle for your child.

Online Workshop: Please make sure that your child has a working computer or laptop (Recommended system – CPU: Intel Core i3-3210 3.2 GHz / AMD A8-7600 APU 3.1 GHz or equivalent, RAM: 2GB), with a strong internet connection, and a working web camera.

For the best virtual learning experience, it is recommended to have a second monitor plugged into your main computer. i.e. you have 2 screens. One screen is for viewing the teacher’s screen, and another screen is for your child to do their code.
For younger students of the age 7 to 8, please have an adult within calling distance for the first 15-30 minutes of the class, as they may need help with how to operate a computer.
Join the online session 10-15 minutes earlier. We will usually have the zoom session up 15 minutes before the class starts.

How are online classes conducted?

We provide hybrid learning for all our regular weekly students from Feb 2020 till now, so we are experts in making the online learning experience work for your child. You may choose to attend your class online if you prefer.

Here are the things we do:

1. StudentWeb Online Portal (LMS): All our notes, videos, assignments, zoom links are available online in our StudentWeb Portal. This is similar to the SLS that our MOE schools use, all our students will have secure access to the system for the camp.

2. Secure Zoom with Remote Support: We use the paid premium and secure version of Zoom with Remote Support enabled. When students need help, we can remote login to the student’s computers to help them. This is similar to how we would walk around the physical class to help individual students, so the support experience is the same.

3. Class Recordings: All online zoom classes are recorded and made available to students to view after the class. Students can review the lessons after, and replay parts of the lessons that they had problems understanding.

Do you provide a certificate upon completion of this workshop?

We provide every student with a certificate of completion at the end of the workshop.

What is Minecraft Education Edition and what can you do with it?

Minecraft: Education Edition is an educational version of Minecraft specifically designed for classroom use. It is being developed by Mojang AB and Xbox Game Studios and contains features that make Minecraft easy to use in a classroom setting. With Minecraft Education Edition, students can:

Collaborate on projects with classmates
Document your work and share in class
Play in a secure environment with your class community
