Real coding. Real applications. Real skills.

Our Dublin campus focuses on programming fundamentals—the kind of skills that translate to AP Computer Science, internships, and beyond.

Getting started is easy

Three steps — no commitment until you're ready.

1

Schedule a free class

Pick a day and time below. Your child will join a real class — no special demo, just the real thing.

2

Show up and build

Your child writes real code from day one. No payment, no strings — just hands on the keyboard.

3

See if it's a fit

If your child loved it, pick a weekly class. If not — no pressure at all.

How we build real skills

Fundamentals first

Variables, loops, functions, OOP

Real applications

Ship projects that work

Expert instructors

Working developers who teach

Portfolio building

Projects worth showing colleges

What a week looks like

Every session follows a structured format: concept introduction, hands-on coding, and a working demo by the end of class. Students leave with something that runs.

Kids don't just learn syntax—they learn to think like programmers. Debugging, problem decomposition, and building from scratch are part of every class. Over time, they stop following tutorials and start creating their own applications.

Tuition is $140/month. Classes meet once per week for 70 minutes (after-school or on Saturdays).

FUNDAMENTALS

Master the building blocks

Variables, conditionals, loops, functions, data structures—students learn the concepts that every programming language shares.

APPLICATIONS

Build things that actually work

Not toy exercises—real apps, real games, real circuits. Students ship working software and hardware projects.

PORTFOLIO

Show what you've built

Every project adds to a growing portfolio—proof of real skills for college applications and beyond.

Students build amazing things here

"Hackingtons brings people together over coding with funny and inspirational teachers..."

— Celia, 11

"I've attended many coding programs, but only Hackingtons focused on building practical applications for the real world."

— Yaroslav, 15

What parents tell us:

  • "He built a working game and showed his grandparents on Zoom."
  • "She's writing Python scripts on her own now—without anyone telling her to."
  • "They talk about their projects at dinner."
  • "He went from Scratch to JavaScript in six months. The progress is real."

Want help finding the right program?

Tell us a little about your child and we'll recommend the right starting point.

How class meetings work

Each class has three parts: quick check-in, focused build time (coding or mechatronics), and a class showcase. Students complete meaningful work and share it every week.

Progress guarantee

If your child isn't making visible progress in the first 3 weeks, tell us. We'll adjust their curriculum, switch programs, or find a better fit—no hassle, no extra cost.

See what your child can build.
