Reasons to study Scratch

Scratch has no complicated functions and algorithms — here your child can start his journey into the world of IT. Your child can learn the basic principles of programming and prepare himself to study more complex languages such as Python, C++ and so on.
Easy to learn
The Scratch programming course helps children think systematically and approach everything logically. It will help you improve your school performance at the moment. Your kids will love studying with our tutors!
Successful future
The skills learned in Scratch class will be useful in all future professions. Web developer salaries average $ 85,000 a year. And the demand for programmers is growing every year because of digitalization.
Developing logical thinking

The Scratch course is perfect for:

Children that want to excel at school
Children that want to develop analytical and logical thinking
Children that want to succeed in the future

A student at the end of the Scratch course:

Understands basic programming principles
Becomes prepared to study more complex areas of coding
Makes their first animation projects
Develops analytic and logical thinking
Explores their creative potential

Creation of animations and cartoons

01
The student will learn the basics of creating animation in Scratch, how to move the character, change its appearance, switch costumes and backgrounds, and will learn to draw his own background or costume.

  • Command sequence
  • Loop
  • Background
  • Costume
  • Motion

The first steps to coding, when the kids will learn how to create the first simple games with scratch, as well as improve other skills in the Scratch environment, learn how to upload third-party images for sprites and their costumes, add sounds.

  • Third party sprites and sounds
  • Sprite settings
  • Coordinates
  • Sensors
  • Operators

Broadcasting messages and using variables

03
The student will learn how to create games where characters interact with each other and react to events in the game, use variables in games to count the number of points received, character lives, time per game, etc.

  • Sprite interaction
  • Events in the game
  • Variables

Using clones and graphic effects

04
Our classes of scratch jr coding for kids enable students to learn how to add graphic effects to games and work with clones.

  • Control
  • Clones
  • Color change
  • Brightness
  • Transparency
