I love it here because in my other classes and camps, they just give the answers to you. Here I get to figure it out for myself. It’s more exciting because I learned it myself.

We offer in-person and online coding classes and camps for kids and teens in a caring, inclusive space for students to have fun, be challenged, and grow as thinkers, learners, and leaders. In our online and in-person coding spaces, students learn to code through the development of computational thinking skills, intellectual confidence, self-expression, and independence.
We're the best according to Time Out, Mommy Poppins, and Tiny Beans, as seen on Good Morning America and Nickelodeon!
Our project-based, self-paced coding curriculum in Scratch, JavaScript, Python, and more lets kids code games, animations, and apps as unique as they are.
Our teachers never lecture. We believe in asking questions to help students solve problems.
Our supportive space fosters a growth mindset, grit, and the freedom to make mistakes, empowering students to grow past their comfort zones.
Our ongoing training in Socratic-based teaching and computer science education means students learn from teachers in the know.
We partner with students and parents at every step, from accessible tech support to progress reports.

Just as learning to make sense of numbers is important to understanding math or being able to read is essential for literacy, making sense of code is crucial to understanding the logic and structure that underpin the digital tools we use every day. This foundational knowledge helps us navigate and understand the increasingly tech-driven world around us. AI technologies, such as LLMs and chatbots…
At The Coding Space, our mission is to empower people to tackle challenges independently through learning to code. In doing so, we aim to develop their problem-solving, critical thinking, learning skills, confidence, attitudes, and mindsets. Below are a few key tools and tactics we use to accomplish our mission. The project-based, “learning-by-making” classroom “Learning is most effective when…
We hope you’ll join us in acknowledging and celebrating our coders' hard work and creativity in devising solutions to problems facing our planet. For each submission, The Coding Space made a donation to The Nature Conservancy, supporting the preservation of our natural world.
Summer may be over and fall classes underway, but we wanted to take a minute to reflect on the fun we had at camp this past summer and the incredible campers who joined us each week.
With the fall semester looming, you might be tempted to shelve supplemental activities so that your child (and you!) can focus on school. And while it’s absolutely true that over-scheduled kids are rarely happy campers, we believe that an after-school coding is the perfect supplement to your child’s education – supporting and enriching their academic lives, rather than overwhelming them. Keep…
In decades past, technology was often presented in film as the stuff of nightmares — think of tech dystopias like Terminator or 2001: A Space Odyssey. But thankfully, technophobia in film is dwindling, and a new generation of filmmakers are creating STEM-centered stories that are full of optimism and possibility. And that’s great news for parents and educators who want to inspire a love of STEM…
Coding has quickly become a crucial skill in today's digital age. From building websites and mobile apps, to automating tasks and analyzing data, the ability to code is increasingly in demand across a wide range of industries. As a result, many parents are now considering introducing coding to their children at an early age. But is it really worth it? Here are a few reasons why coding classes for…

The Coding Space has opened up a whole new world for our daughter, which was especially needed when she couldn’t see friends in person. Her classes are the highlight of her week, and it’s so incredible to watch her progress.

My son Aiden said it was the best camp he’s ever done and he absolutely loved everything he learned about coding. The instructors were really excited and knowledgeable.
