Python is the best language to start with. It’s the most popular programming
language, and useful for every kind of programming.
This foundational course introduces students in grades 4-12 to the Python
programming language for the first time.
Students solidify core programming concepts including variables, functions,
loops, conditionals, and object-oriented design while earning globally
recognized credentials.
Students expand beyond syntax to learn event handling, game physics, and
software architecture by producing complete, playable games.
Students explore computational science by modelling gravity, planetary motion,
and physics-based scenarios in Python.
Java
For students of all levels who want to learn industry-level Java programming.
Students progress from introductory syntax to advanced object-oriented
programming, data structures, and algorithms using industry-standard tools.
Technology
We have many other technology classes involving AI, games, and robotics.
Students prototype ethical AI experiences while training models, generating
media, and deploying their own assistants.
Students compete in friendly challenges while learning to wire, program, and
customize robots with new hardware attachments.
Students sample Python, Java, JavaScript, robotics, and AI projects at their own
pace with instructor guidance.
Community Programs
Free and low-cost programs that bring computer science education to underserved
communities, with new classes every week.
Students experiment with LEDs, sensors, and radio communications to see how code
controls physical hardware.
Students learn game design and programming logic using Microsoft’s visual
programming platform with options to transition into JavaScript.
Students dive into the electrical and software principles behind motor control,
including PWM techniques for speed and direction.
Students practice assembly techniques, tool safety, and electronics
troubleshooting while building take-home projects.

Hear From Our Community
The LEAGUE of Amazing Programmers has built my confidence to become an engineer. I've had a wonderful experience so far with the league classes and the extraordinary internship that changed my perspective in engineering.
The LEAGUE of Amazing Programmers has helped me develop my software skills and also improve my skills in problem solving. The skills I learned from the league helped me lead an award winning robotics team in the San Diego Region.
I first joined The LEAGUE of Amazing Programmers in the 7th grade as just something my mom wanted me to do. Little did I know that it would become not only one of my favorite activities but would develop into my career choice.
