CODING COURSES FOR HOMESCHOOLERS

Homeschool STEM and Coding Courses

Full Computer Coding Pathway for Homeschool Students

Overview:

The goal of the Simply Coding course pathway is to teach youth how to code their own websites, games, mods, and apps using real-world coding environments. 

Each course is purposefully designed in our pathway to direct users from beginning coding to completing multiple projects all while creating an online portfolio of their work.

Your experience includes:

• Beginner courses assume no prior coding knowledge
• Using real-world coding environments to give a true experience
• Live chat support with our instructors
• Self-directed lessons with 24/7 access
• Downloadable transcripts for completed courses

We love working with students to gain these needed skills and build their confidence.  Whether or not you become a programmer later in life, we believe learning the basics of computer science will help you no matter what field you end up working in.

Why Learn Coding through Simply Coding for your Homeschool:

Technology moves fast. Methods, tools, and updates in computer science that are available today weren’t around months and years ago. You have to be able to keep courses fresh and as relevant as possible.  Since this is our main focus, we are able to update and add to our courses each summer making sure students are getting a valuable and relevant experience. 

Pricing:

We offer homeschool students a special discount off each course! You just need to contact us (see form at the bottom).

We only ask that you share the coupon code with your whole homeschool network so all the families know about this opportunity!

For co-ops with over 10 confirmed  students wanting to enroll we can do bulk discounts.

We love working with homeschool groups and want to make this a great experience as they gain this needed skill!
