About Online Coding Classes for Kids
Not Just Dragging Blocks
I get it - coding for kids is everywhere, but most places just have them moving blocks on a screen. That’s not real coding. I want your child to actually understand what’s happening, not just follow instructions.
How We Teach: Think First, Code Later
Before your kid even touches a computer, we start with screen-free coding activities. It’s all about building computational thinking for kids - logic, problem-solving, and those “Oh, I get it!” moments. Coding isn’t about memorizing commands, it’s about learning how to think like a programmer.
Step-by-Step Learning Journey
- First, we build a strong foundation with fun, offline activities. Kids learn the “why” behind coding.
- Then, we move to online classes. Our instructors are patient and make sure learning stays fun and meaningful.
Tech Skills We Build
- Scratch programming for children: Kids create games, stories, and animations.
- Robotics coding for young learners: We play with bots to spark creativity.
- Beginner Python for kids and Java: For older kids ready for real coding.
More Than Just Code
Kids pick up logical thinking, creativity, persistence, and confidence. They learn to break down problems, stick with challenges, and actually enjoy the process.
Who’s It For?
Curious kids aged 5-12. No experience needed, just a willingness to try and have fun.

My Story
We started Code-Riite 'cause we saw kids stuck to screens, but not really learning the real stuff - logic, problem-solving, all that. Coding shouldn’t just be block-dragging on a laptop. We ditched the screens and got messy instead. Now, kids at our workshops solve mazes on the floor, fold origami for algorithms, and even bake mug cakes to learn sequences! We just love watching that lightbulb moment when they get it, all by themselves.
My Work
What We Offer - Screen-free coding workshops, hands-on computational thinking for kids, Scratch, Bot Programming, Java, Python - for ages 5 to 12.
How We Teach - No screens, no boring lectures. We use puzzles, origami algorithm activities, Lego, and even baking to teach.
Who Should Join - If you want your kid to think smart, not just click smart, and you hate too much screen time, this is for you.
Workshops at Your Place - Gather 3-4 kids, and we’ll bring our creative coding without computers right to your home or society.
