Springing to Coding


March is here! Daffodils are about to bloom! Signs that Spring is in toe!
Don't you love Spring, the feeling that the renewal of everything is coming?


Our students have been "springing" to progress ever more with each passing day!
They were extremely excited to have done special coding projects such as coding a Leprechaun for St. Paddy's day!

Our Robotics team is showing much progress as well. Under the instructor's leadership, the team has been doing lessons such as how to build a claw for the robot, the different rotations of the arm and how to write code in Modkit for the robot to perform certain tasks.

It is extremely gratifying to see these young kids learn and progress at such fast pace. They come in knowing nothing about programming to in a few months, designing their own game and learning concepts such as a "forever loop", and "variables".

Let's enjoy the upcoming nice weather and try to forget the rough winter for a while!

STEM is the field of interest for many educational institutions. Many enrichment programs are offering classes ranging from teaching block coding, Python and JavaScript to programming Robots for competitions. Learning centers like ours, Brain Bytes Academy, are offering a myriad of creative, fun filled lessons for kids as young as 5 years old, teaching them the ropes to become literate in the language

Community of Coders

 Have you seen how the community of computer coders has grown? Just a few years back, in 2018, when BBA was founded, we would explain to people what we did, and they in amazement would say “I wish we had that when I grew up”. It’s not a fad, it’s here to stay. Either join the people that are moving forward or be left behind.
