Beyond Scratch 

Making Games with JavaScript and Godot


Though there’s no such thing as being too old for Scratch, we recognize that some of our older students are ready to broaden their horizons and try their hand at formal coding languages. We are excited to invite your teen or tween to join our JavaScript Club!

Club sessions are weekly, and we also offer private tutoring for students who want or need more individual attention. We believe our highly trained and experienced teachers are the very best in the world at the specialized task of teaching coding to kids. We are patient, kind, encouraging, and sensitive to your kids emotional needs, while still being very knowledgeable about coding.

 We make scheduling easy. Simply email us, and a real live human will answer your questions and help place your child in the perfect class to match their interest and maturity level. We have ongoing classes 5 days a week, generally after school, as well as custom times for private tutoring. Just email parentsupport@creativecoding.com  to get that placement assistance. A real live human will do their best to respond within 24 hours on weekdays.

Space is limited. Though we wish we could take on infinitely many students, we want to keep class size small to ensure each student gets the attention they deserve. If class fills up, don’t fret: we will place you on a waiting list and let you know when the next available class is.


We are also happy to announce a full-fledged Godot game engine curriculum!

Like Unity, Godot is a 2D and 3D open-source game engine that can easily deploy games to the Apple and Android stores. Unlike Unity, it’s totally free! Godot supports multiple coding languages including C#, but the primary language used is a Python-like language called GDScript. Godot runs natively on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Games made in Godot can easily be exported to all of those platforms as well as for the web browser.

This curriculum has already gone through beta testing with great success. Though we do not currently have a club up and running, we are eager to get it back up! If you are interested please add yourself to the waitlist below.

 

  • Prerequisites for Teen/Tween Classes
  • For students between 10 and 12 years old: Advanced Scratch skills.
  • For students 13 and older: some familiarity with coding concepts; i.e. some Scratch experience (does not have to be advanced)
