About RP4K

Real Programming 4 Kids instructors are based in Canada, and are university undergraduates, graduate students, or recent grads. Let our students and their parents tell you about their experience with RP4K. Take a few minutes to learn more about us with live footage from some of our classes!

Why Choose Computer Programming for your Kids?

Teaching children programming ensures they are better able to use logic in problem-solving for the years ahead. Programming knowledge helps children structure their ideas more effectively while developing their grasp of challenging technical concepts. The resulting computer knowledge empowers children to greater success in the future as computers and other devices become further integrated into our lives.

Real Instructors

Each RP4K “Guru” is a post-secondary student, specializing in Computer Science or Computer Engineering. Our gurus are able to give students the inside track on what to expect as a programmer in high school and beyond.

Real Math

Without math, video games wouldn’t exist. Each course is like a hidden math lesson. All of our courses apply math from simple counting of integers right up to 3D vectors and trigonometry. Who knew math could be this fun?

Real Fun

Teachers often say it’s tough to compete with video games. So we don’t. We use them to a student’s advantage. But let’s face it, when you’re a kid you just want to have a good time! Our classes are informal and relaxed, but most of all, FUN!

Real Programming

We’re thrilled to see so many fun video game design camps being offered these days. However, most camps use drag-and-drop game making software, requiring minimal programming knowledge. We only teach REAL programming – just like the pros!

"RP4K really helped shape my future career direction"

I would love to talk about how RP4K influenced my career choices so far. RP4K helped me identify very early on in my life a few things that really helped shape my future career direction.

"It is rare to find a gem like RP4K"

I am providing you with this letter as a form of testimonial, and I should say at the outset that it was unsolicited and came about on my own initiative after I received one of your emails with current registration attachments and contacted you to inform you that my children were now no longer able to enroll again
