Meet Hackingtons

Founded by a licensed California school teacher in 2014, Hackingtons is a community where professional coding instructors share their love of programming with their students.

Our primary goal is to create to the entrepreneurs of tomorrow, by helping kids learn to build video games, websites, and apps.

Tuition is $120/month, and we haven't increased it since our founding in 2014. Tuition includes a weekly 70min group lesson (on Zoom), weekly coding clubs, live help desk, and 24/7 access to our entire curriculum.

The coding languages we teach

Beginner students typically start by learning Scratch, a language developed by MIT University for building video games. Students then learn to build websites using HTML, CSS & JavaScript, or study Python scripting. Our most advanced students study Unity video game development with the language C#.

What parents are saying

Nobody makes learning how to code as much fun as Hackington's does. Every day using the tools that Hackingtons provides my son is excited to do work on his own and to learn how to code. If you think that your kids might be interested in hacking (or rather coding) I would highly encourage you to try Hackingtons today.

Yelp Review

This place is amazing! I love the fact that my child is so passionate about attending class and looks forward to his next class after every session. Curriculum, staff and pricing is just right. I feel like what took me a month to learn, my child learned within an hour. Thank you Hackingtons!

Would my child enjoy coding?

Coding is not about playing video games, it's about creating and problem solving. Does your child enjoy drawing or building with legos? Are they mischievous? Do they like discovering short-cuts? Do they have an entrepreneurial spirit? Do they have big dreams? These are all tell-tales that your child might benefit from learning to code.
