Feedback
Students and their parents share their GEEKLAMA experiences
4.7/5.0
I am extremely happy I found Geeklama. I have been extremely impressed with the program, specifically: the small class sizes give everyone a chance to have 1x1 attention, the instructor's patience and experience, and the fun atmosphere that is provided to build and develop games, the length of time of the program - this is no short 1 or 2 session class. The future of many of these kids is in the coding world - this is a great way to start that off.

The best part of this coding class is the projects that I get to work on every week. I get to surprise my family with the games that I have created. I love how patient the instructor is and how interactive the class is. Every week I am excited to see what I get to learn next.

My son did not have any coding experience before Geeklama. The teachers are super passionate about what they do. Beka loves the classes and will continue to the next level.
Alice
Love building new games and sharing them with my group.
Beka, 10 y.o.
At first, I wasn't sure whether coding can be interesting for my 6-year-old daughter but decided to give it a try. I was impressed by how professional the teacher is and how much attention is given to each student even though the classes are held online.
Altynai
I like doing animations and games! Also, I like how the instructor teaches, it is not boring.
Aimira, 6 y.o.
There are so many online schools on the market and I was very skeptical about all this zoom-style study. My friend recommended Geeklama as there was a promo. It was a good decision that I am still proud of and I am proud of my daughter, as she learned so much in just one month.
Christine
I really enjoy the classes and sharing my projects with my friends. I will use Python to do my homework at school

QA
Who are the teachers?
Our teachers are our pride and joy! Our policy is to exclusively hire practicing specialists. They work in the world's leading IT companies (Cisco, Yandex, etc.) or are engaged in science at the best universities in the world (MIT, University of California, Berkeley, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Skoltech, etc.). Each of the teachers has extensive experience in software development and communicates effectively with children. More information about them can be found on the Teachers page
What is your approach to learning?
GEEKLAMA offers a project-oriented approach. We are against theoretical lessons. We teach through projects and engage students in practical problem solving through games, knowledge exchange, and open discussion. Our courses are not only of excellent quality and thoughtfulness, but they are also fun and captivating!
Why GEEKLAMA?
For us, programming is more than just a popular trend in education. We wish to raise a new generation of innovative thinkers. Our courses are designed to keep students motivated and to spark enthusiasm and curiosity as they immerse themselves in the world of programming. It is important to us that every student is motivated, interested, and successful, that they are energized, and that they believe in themselves. More information can be found in the section Why GEEKLAMA?
Is there going to be any homework?
Yes. This is the part of learning that the children subsequently describe as the most exciting part of the course: they enjoy coming up with their own projects! You might believe that the child is simply having fun. But he doesn't just play games; he learns a full-fledged programming language and consolidates the content he's already mastered.
What is the price for the course?
We operate on a subscription basis because it is the most convenient way to pay for classes. You purchase a package of 4, 8, or 16 lessons and utilize as much as you need until the course is finished. A small package will do the trick. Larger packages contain more valuable options. Details can be found on the Price page
Where can I find the class schedule?
Since the teacher works with each child individually in a 1: 1 manner, we always provide the most suitable schedule for each student.
What should you do if you miss a class?
You have individual lessons and a personal training schedule, so you can always agree to postpone or skip a lesson with the teacher or administrator.
Where do I begin?
The first course is chosen based on the child's age and programming experience. On the Tracks page, we provide programs for elementary, middle, and high school students. If you find it difficult to decide on your own, we offer you a free 15-minute consultation, as a result of which we will select and offer you a suitable course with a free first lesson.
How do I prepare for the class?
To join a class, you need to have a computer or laptop with Internet access. We provide all the materials for the lessons, give simple instructions on how to prepare for the lesson, and install the necessary software. Problems are unlikely, but just in case, our support team and teachers will always come to your aid.
What are the technical requirements for taking classes?
A Computer / laptop with a webcam (tablets and iPads are not suitable). Google account (Gmail mail) and Chrome / Opera browser are required.
Fill out the form, and we will call you, advise you, answer all of your questions, and recommend a course that will best suit the child's interests. We will enroll you in a free trial class, which will be delivered with the same commitment and care as the main course.
