Testimonials

  • There is very little that can get our teen out of bed on a Sunday, but coding with Technology for {You}th never failed. He looks forward to the customized learning that allows him to work at his own pace. His self-confidence and love for coding has grown with every class. He’s currently enrolled in AP Computer Science in high school.

  • My son will be going to College this Fall majoring in Finance with a minor in Computer Science on a full academic scholarship! His first exposure to computer science was during Technology for {You}th’s classes. He fell in love with it and took all of the computer science classes they offered him at his high school. The program has been an inspiration to countless young scholars!
