Give Kids the Opportunity to Be Part of a Game Design Team at Our Summer Coding Camps
The summer coding camp for kids offered at RP4K is unlike any other in the region. We’re offering kids the opportunity to be part of a real video game design team through 3-hour-per-day sessions. Our summer camps start in late June and run until LATE August. Summer classes are held weekdays 9:00am-12:00pm or 1:00pm-4:00pm. Each course lasts 1-to-2 weeks and many students graduate through the courses during a single summer, quickly learning complex technical coding skills.
The History behind the Success of Our Summer Classes
Summer 2000 was our very first summer coding camp, which started in Toronto. Summer 2018 will be our 19th summer coding camp in Ontario. Thousands of students have now attended RP4K coding camps in the past two decades and many have gone on to successful careers in the technology field.
Why Choose Our Summer Coding Camp?
Let’s look at a few reasons so many parents are choosing our summer coding camp for their children:
- One-on-one time with experienced instructors
Just like our weekly school season program, there are never more than 4 students per instructor, and there is no minimum class size!
- Class options
Each camp is one or two weeks, 3 hours-per-day, either morning or afternoons. We also have a full day option for more advanced students. We offer the same roster of programming languages during our summer period as during our school season weekly program. This facilitates RP4K teaching students aged 7 to 17 years old and teaching all levels of experience from beginner to advanced students.
- Unique learning opportunities
Alice, Visual Basic, Python, Java, JavaScript, C#, and C++ comprise our roster of programming languages. We also use the Unity Game Engine, which allows kids the opportunity to develop a hands-on understanding of complex programming concepts.
- Active learning
Our coding camps are not like traditional summer camps, as we focus solely on teaching game programming during the 3 hour daily sessions. RP4K offers hardcore, intense and fun game coding camps. RP4K students learn real programming without using game making software.
Our children will have access to the leading programming instructors in the industry, each of whom has been pre-screened for their ability to teach and communicate with children and teens. To discover more about our coding summer camp options, call today.
