My child really enjoyed the story telling program. The instructor was polite and engaged well with the kids. The length of the classes were good as well as the content.
One thing that could had helped the interaction in the classroom was if all participants had turned on their camera. My child was the only one willing to do so. I think kids miss from not seeing each other, not sharing their face expressions, spontaneous reactions, etc. Instructor would also benefit from it because they would have 'real time' responses from kids from observing their body language during class.
Thank you

Boring but fun and friendly people
It was pretty basic and it didn’t contain the AI and web app, but it was great fun and worth participating

Enjoyable teaching
I've taken a 1-week course from a scholarship offered to me on Programming & Web Development.
The teacher tried his best to make this course as much interactable and enjoyable as possible, I learned a new coding language and made my first long code.
Thank you for this experience!

Lost leftover money in account
Because the camp was not being held in person, I ended up with money in our account. Switching to a virtual camp was not as much money so the leftover was still in our account. When the next class cancelled and was going to be virtual we didn’t sign up for that and now ended up losing the last of our money that we had left in the account. I would love to have this still available to out toward another future in person camp.

My son had a fantastic experience last week! He was so proud to present his first new game. Even not being tech-savvy, he learned many new skills. He interacted with other kids and made new friends online. Strongly recommend it!

Tech accelerators is great!
I think the program my son was enrolled in was excellent. I am so happy that it was offered in an online format because it made it easier for my son to attend. I highly recommend digital media academy. We have enrolled in many of its camps over the years.

DMA has been a wonderful experience for my son. Not only was he paired with an industry professional who was willing and able to create a lesson plan based on his specifications, but Jamie and the team listened closely to his feedback and were very willing to adjust plans accordingly. This is an excellent program with a talented and child-focused staff.

I am a former student of DMA who attended for 4 consecutive summers.
I am a former student of DMA who attended a few of their different coding boot camps. I attended a Java course on 3 different summers and Unity development and their iOS development during another summer. Overall, I had a very memorable experience. The staff there were professional and very helpful whenever I had issues. Our learning was always the highest priority in the classroom.

From a parent's perspective
From a parent's perspective, I couldn't be happier with the DMA Tech Accelerators program so far! Our daughter has been very inspired by this class and has enjoyed it immensely. It's a small group, which can have its challenges, but the instructor seems well-equipped to keep the kids engaged and learning.
Thank you for this opportunity DMA, and for all the hard work I know has gone into making this program a successful experience for everybody involved!
