Testimonials

“Brendan was able to build a good introductory foundation in Swift programming that gave my son not only the confidence to want to continue learning more, but has also started working on his own project.”

“ It's much easier to use an app, or play a game, than actually build one. This is where Swift Kids came to the rescue.”

“…class sizes were small, which allowed my son to get the one-on-one attention necessary to get the quality learning experience I had hoped for.”
