The challenges Whyte Labs set gave my son a great sense of achievement when he completed them.
My son really enjoyed the Intro to Arduino workshop! He couldn't stop talking about it on our way home after the workshop and was proud to show his grandpa what he achieved. Now that his exams are over, he is reminding me to sign him up for the Bootcamp!

This class is a cut above others. Excellent teachers with impeccable credentials.
It has been a wonderful experience not only for my boy but also for myself. The lesson was easy to follow and Aditya and Jeremy brought so much depth and hands-on experience to the class. They were incredibly patient with the little ones and made the experience very enriching and enjoyable.
