Who is it for?

Silicon Valley instructors, teaching live from your home in Bend.

Hackingtons is a live online coding school taught by instructors based in Silicon Valley. Kids in Bend join a small group session each week over video, building real projects with a real mentor who knows them by name.

Our sweet spot is ages 11 to 13. Old enough to tackle real projects, still young enough to be forming their identity around building things.

Not sure if your Bend student is ready? Book a Meet & Greet. You and your child sit down with one of our co-founders, and we will tell you honestly whether this is the right fit.

✅
Great fit

Kids with some coding experience who want real challenges, not another intro Python course.

✅
Sweet spot: ages 11–13

Self-motivated kids who enjoy problem-solving and love having peers who get it.

Why kids actually stay

Most coding programs lose kids in the first month. Here's what makes ours different.

Same crew each week

Kids form real friendships, not just classmates

They ship real work

Every session ends with something built, not just watched

Mentors, not lecturers

Instructors push kids further and know when to step back

Progress is visible

Weekly showcases mean kids leave proud every single time

What a session looks like

Every session has a rhythm: quick check-in → focused build time → mini-showcase. Kids leave with something working every single week.

They debug real problems, ship real projects, and present their work to peers. Over time that becomes identity: "I'm someone who builds things."

$140/month. One 70-minute live session per week. Cancel anytime with 2 weeks' notice.

BELONGING
