Membership

Any adult (Parent or Guardian) can register on the Coddyca School website at https://coddy.ca for a Trial Class to experience our unique teaching methodology. To enroll a child in a Trial Class, you must be at least the legal age of majority or legal age in your jurisdiction of residence. Coddyca School is not responsible for verifying the age or legal status of its website users.

As a member, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of all information received from Coddyca School. This confidential information includes, but is not limited to, ZOOM class login details (meeting ID and password), and any curriculum provided by Coddyca School.

Trial Class

Experience our unique methodology firsthand and meet our dedicated teachers through our Trial Class. This 55-minute coding session is tailored just for your child, ensuring they receive 100% of the teacher's attention. You can choose the day and time that best fits your schedule, providing maximum convenience.

Cost of the Coddyca School Trial Class:

  • $25.00 CAD (Canadian Dollars)
  • $18.30 USD (United States Dollars)
  • 127kr DKK (Danish Kroner)

If you and your child decide to continue with our regular coding classes, Coddyca School will reimburse the cost of the trial class by applying a discount to your first payment for a regular class membership.

Regular Classes

Coddyca School Class Offerings and Policies

Coddyca School offers both group and private coding classes tailored for students aged 6 to 16. Our teachers have a strong background in computer science, holding relevant degrees or being final-year students from renowned Canadian or US institutions. All instructors have completed mandatory Training for Trainers and use unique methodologies for teaching children and teenagers.

Trial Class Requirement

Before enrolling in regular classes, students must participate in a Trial Class. This allows us to assess the student's English language proficiency and basic understanding of school-level mathematics, appropriate to their age.

Attendance and Catch-Up Policy

If a student is unable to attend regular classes due to illness or travel, Coddyca School does not offer compensation in the form of additional private 55-minute lessons. However, as an accommodation, we may provide a single 15-minute catch-up class for each missed 55-minute group session, subject to availability.

Rescheduling Catch-Up Classes

If a student cannot attend a scheduled catch-up class, Coddyca School may offer one additional opportunity to reschedule, subject to availability. This policy ensures fair access to catch-up classes for all students.
