How it works

One call, then they are off.

There is no class to attend and nothing to install. Scratch runs in any browser, so your child in Oklahoma City works on their own schedule.

Start with a meet and greet

Your $99 month begins with a meet and greet with Matt. He helps set up your Hackingtons and Scratch accounts and gives your child their first assignment. If your child is not excited after the meeting, you have 48 hours to ask for a full refund, no questions asked.

Lessons that fit your child

Matt sends your child personalized lessons throughout the month, tailored to their age and ability level.

Personalized video reviews

Matt plays each finished game, then sends your child a personalized video review: what worked, and what to try next. Yes, he really plays it.

A weekly email for you

Every week you get a summary of the lessons Matt sent, the games your child built, and the feedback he gave. You stay in the loop without having to sit next to them.

Why Oklahoma City parents look online

The case for doing this from home.

Outside the biggest metros the options for a kid who wants to build video games thin out quickly, and Oklahoma City parents often find the nearest real class is a long way off. That is precisely the gap this fills. The teacher is in California, the class is in your house, and the thing your child ends the month with is four games and a set of videos about their own code.

The 1 month curriculum

Four games they can actually play.

Each one is a real, playable program, not an exercise. Your child in Oklahoma City can send the link to a grandparent anywhere and it works in their browser.

Game 1

Butterfly Clicker

Click the butterflies and score as many points as you can.

Game 2

Shark Escape

A diver, a shark, and the first game you can lose.

Game 3

Maze Escape

Draw a maze, fill it with enemies, find the way out.

Game 4

Flappy Bird

The one they have played a hundred times, built from nothing.

If your child is more advanced, they can work on more challenging games. More about the curriculum.

A note from Matt

“Wow, I built that.”

I started Hackingtons in 2014 in the Bay Area, and we have taught thousands of kids to code since. The part I care about most is still the first month, the moment a kid sits back and says wow, I built that.

I play every finished game myself and record a video about it, for your child in Oklahoma City the same as for a kid in our own classroom. Not an assistant, and not generated. That is the part a video tutorial cannot do.

Questions from Oklahoma City

The practical answers

It works because the class is not a lecture. Your child watches a short lesson, builds, and then gets a video back about the thing they built. The attention is individual, which is the part that usually goes missing at that age.

No. Our in-person locations are in Northern California. This class was designed for families who are nowhere near them.

Nothing special. Scratch runs in a normal browser and the lessons are ordinary video. If your household streams anything, it will be fine.

The meet and greet, every lesson, and Matt’s personal video reviews for thirty days. Charged once when you book. No subscription, no second charge, nothing to cancel. Your month starts on the day of the meet and greet, not the day you pay.

Full refund for 48 hours after the meet and greet, no questions asked. By then you will have met Matt and seen exactly what your child is getting. And if they run out of steam partway through, their account and all the lessons stay open for good.

No experience at all. The first lesson assumes they have never opened Scratch. Eight is the sweet spot: they need to read well enough to follow a video and be comfortable with a mouse, and that is the whole requirement.

Eight more answers, including what you need and what happens after the month, are on the main class page. Questions before booking? Email [email protected].
