What Teachers Are Saying

I was ready to quit my job when I was told I had to teach CS. I feel like I can do it this year and be better next year.

Dawn Small

Elwood Junior Senior High School

You are so organized and have all the links ready and have enough co-hosts to review and answer the questions. This is by far the most structured workshop I've attended. You and your team's professionalism is appreciated!

Mariana Souza

Pan American School of Porto Alegre

I was very impressed with the summer course offering for new teachers and all the assistance and guidance your curriculum comes with. For a new teacher of coding it is super relieving to see that level of support.

Justin Bourque

Concord High School

It's fascinating! The way you guys have laid out the course is just brilliant!

Diane Godfrey

Aspen Middle School

I can't thank the CodeHS team enough for being so patient and helpful to me when I was taking the PD course. They went above and beyond, giving me extra help and offering practical classroom tips that I plan on using when I teach the course this coming school year. The PD is well worth it!

Anne Marie Bette

New Egypt Middle School

I just wanted to say THANK YOU for all of this amazing PD this summer. I have been teaching computer science for 27 years, so I have a ton of my own materials, but your courses are going to make it possible for me to smoothly handle the transition back and forth from all of the different scenarios we might face this school year. CodeHS Rocks!!!!
