Our Classroom in action

Our classrooms are fun, exciting, engaging, and messy all in one and we love them that way. Our main focus is practice rather than theory. We want our students to come with a maker’s mindset, a sense of curiosity and a willingness to leave their comfort zone, try out new things, and create

"My 3 kids, Eguono, Tega, and Esiri came for the summer camp and I immediately noticed they had less interest in watching cartoons rather they're always looking for something to code. I'm so happy about that"

Our Core Programs

9jacodekids Academy offers various programs that will help your child develop their vision; and more importantly the substance for achieving it.

Coding

Coding is at the core of what we do. The ability to give instructions to computers and robots teaches your kids to not just solve problems but to also foresee them.

Robotics

We enable kids with the concepts of how robots and similar machineries work. This gives them an edge over their peers in a world becoming ever reliant on machines.

Artificial Intelligence

We teach kids to design intelligent computer programs. This ability puts your child at the top of the demand hierarchy, globally.

why 9jacodekids

design thinking approach​

We believe that the main aim of learning to code is to solve problems, so we take our students through the five-step design thinking process – Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype and Test – which is a human-centred approach to innovation and problem-solving made popular by Stanford University’s Design School.

project-based learning

Our lessons connect what our students learn to real-world scenarios. Students learn with the same approach they will eventually use in their hobbies, passions, and careers. This ingrains essential problem-solving techniques within them early on, drastically increasing their chances of success in whatever career they choose once their education has completed.

Experienced, and friendly instructors​

 All our instructors are STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) graduates who are passionate about what they do. Our work culture ensures that we attract fun-loving, down-to-earth instructors who work to make learning fun, inspiring, and productive for our students
