Panda Programmer Summer Camp 818 University Boulevard West Panda Campus, Silver Spring, MD 20901

"My daughter attended Panda Programmer after school for most of the year and really enjoyed it. She loved showing off the animations and games she made in class. Towards the end of the year, she was interested in me showing her a little bit of python coding and she could translate some of the concepts to things she learned in scratch - for example, how a 'for' loop is essentially the same as a repeat block. I really appreciate the instructors at Panda Programmer for inspiring her to become more curious about how computers work."

"My 10-year-old twins have both done Panda Programmer class and camps and really enjoyed it. My son especially loves it and has done it for the last 2 years. We also did summer camp (and will again) where in addition to coding, kids had the opportunity to learn ukulele and Spanish! As a result, my daughter now loves ukulele and she's doing private lessons with a tutor. Moe is wonderful and we've had a very positive experience with Panda Programming. Would def. recommend."

"My 9 year old twins have been attending Panda Programmer since summer of 2022. They loved it so much that they opted to enroll in the after-school coding class offered by Panda at their school as well. I have honestly been surprised at how engaged and interested in coding my kids have been as they can tend to lose interest in new activities quickly. They often log into their coding accounts at home to show me what they're working on. I owe this to how well the program is run- the teachers are all very nice and truly make coding interesting and exciting for young kids. Panda programmer is here to stay for my family for the foreseeable future. My kids will be re-enrolled for their summer camp and for the coming school year."

"My grandson has attended the after-school Panda Programmer session for two years. He loved the program and always asked to be signed up for the next session. He said he learned a lot, gained new skills and enjoyed the time he spent in the classes. He was able to move ahead at his own pace and was highly engaged in what he was learning. He said the instructors were knowledgeable, flexible, helpful and kind. This program offers a great opportunity for students who want to learn coding skills in a supportive environment."

"My 10 year old son has been doing Panda Programmer for several years and enjoys it immensely! It combines his love of computers and games, but also helps him learn problem solving and critical thinking. The programs they use are the same that are taught in middle school to learn coding so it's a great introduction. The staff is great and he always looks forward to going!"
