Athena Coding Mission:
We believe that anyone can learn to code. Our mission is to bring a stimulating, high-energy, collaborative programming education to everyone. Our individualized instruction is a perfect introduction for a beginner, supplement to an in-school programming curriculum, or a way for precocious coders to further develop their skills!

About Instructors:
The most important thing about us is our Olympians! Our Olympian coding instructors are an eclectic group from a handful of diverse backgrounds who all combine 3 important qualities: a love and skill for programming, a passion for teaching, and the ability to cultivate a fun and rewarding environment. If you have a question for your child’s specific instructor, contact us and we will put you in touch.

Bring your game ideas to life in Roblox! We’ll guide you through the lifecycle of game development; you’ll sketch out an idea, design your game, and complete a finished product! You’ll use the Lua programming language to create in Roblox’s 3D design studio while mastering real-world programming concepts. Whether you’re completely new to coding or a master, Roblox’s game design engine offers some incredibly fun challenges.
