Interactivity:
Highly interactive. Students can interact with Instructor just like in the classroom. Instructors are trained to control the class and keep the noise levels to low. We use Powerpoints and some of the exercises from Nexclap (Our own product developed for students). Participants are able to join the class from their homes and interact with us in real-time, it is a fun and engaging experience.

Pre-requisites :
None! Just have fun with it. if you have attended a few camps or classes and have some basic understanding, that's great. We help them to understand how to put that knowledge to use to create real things.

I would definitely recommend them to anyone!! My son is 10 years old and he enrolled for the Movie Making class which he absolutely enjoyed. He did a week and now he is addicted to it. We have enrolled him for another 2 weeks. The teacher is very dedicated, attentive, helpful & amicable. And the quality of their teaching is excellent. They give attention to each and every student and don't take this just as an activity to earn money. It is truly value for money.

Depends on the maturity level. As long as he/she can use mouse and follow instructions for 2-3 hours, it should be OK -
