Coding Club

The goal of LIYD Coding Club is to empower young minds to explore the world of programming from an introductory standpoint. Through hands-on projects, collaborative learning and experienced teachers, we help students learn coding principles in an encouraging environment.

Our main mission isn’t to just teach coding, but to also teach problem solving, critical thinking and essential math skills along the way.
