About this event

At this trial class, your child will be introduced to programming logics and basic coding skills by working on a mini project in either Scratch or Python. If your child already knows how to code, we have a wide variety of projects/lesson materials that will be suitable for any level of experience.

Through this introductory class, your child will get a chance to find out more about Code Ninja’s unique teaching style. Parents will also be provided a copy of the Code Ninja passport, a report card that we use to communicate regular progress.

Code Ninja is different in that the learning journey for each child is customized so that they are engaged at the appropriate level. There are 5 Ninja Levels in total and each student is assigned different projects depending on their interests and abilities and can advance through different levels of coding challenges as quickly or as leisurely as it suits their abilities.

Typically, students in Code Ninja start with Scratch Programming before advancing to Python Programing which is used for Big Data Analysis, Machine Learning and many more.  This is technique is also used in Harvard University's "Introduction to Computer Science" course. The aim of which is to learn coding rapidly and develop transferable skills.

All equipment, including laptops are provided.

Frequently asked questions

Why was Code Ninja created?

Every child is unique. They have different personalities, different interests and learn differently. Some pick up coding quickly. Others prefer to learn at their own pace. That said, schools today continue to work largely on 1-size-fits-all model. Code Ninja was created to solve this problem.

Who are the instructors?

All our instructors are professional curriculum developers and have degrees (or higher) in Computer Science. For more on their profiles, https://www.codeninja.com.sg/meet-the-team

What is the thought process for Code Ninja’s curriculum design?

The curriculum is designed around a Competency Based Learning System in which there are 5 Code Ninja Levels. Each level has a set of defined skills that we look out for and builds on top of each another to form a student’s foundation.

How many lessons does it take to complete Level 1 to 5?

On average, it takes a 12-year old with no prior coding experience between 24 to 36 months to complete all 5 levels. A student’s interest plays a big part in accelerating the learning journey. Projects are accessible online and we are encourage lots of practice (and fun!) at home.

Do students of different levels attend the same class? How do you customise the learning experience?

Students of different levels can attend the same class. The learning experience is customised using mini-projects. In some situations, different projects are given to different students. In other situations, the same project is given to different students but with different expected learning outcome

What is your class size?

Our maximum class size is 6.

What coding languages do you offer?

Just 2 flavours. Scratch and Python.

My son / daughter wants to learn Python but not Scratch. Can this be arranged?

Yes it can though we would start first with a Trial Class. We get lots of questions around the merits of using Scratch vs. going straight into Python. We believe Scratch is well suited to augment the learning process and ease the transition to a text code coding language such as Python.

My son / daughter has attended lessons at another coding school. Which Code Ninja Level are they?

We take 1 to 3 lessons to work out the Code Ninja Level of a student.

How do I know if my child has improved?

We provide weekly passport updates on your child’s progress which is benchmarked against our Code Ninja Learning Journey Roadmap. The passport updates can be discussed with the instructor or your child to also get a better understanding of what is covered in class.

What do students need to bring to class? Do they need their own laptops? What software is required?

For on premise students, laptops for Level 1 to 4 students are provided. Level 5 students require their own laptops. For online students, any computer purchased in the last 5 years with a browser will do.
