I highly recommend!! My son has taken both the Minecraft and Dungeons and Dragons class with Chris. He was patient and a fun instructor. During the Minecraft class, my son's game got corrupted and Chris took many extra steps to make sure that he didn't miss out on anything. My kid is asking to take another class!

Chris was wonderful. My boys loved the whole week and talked about almost nothing else even after class. They both learned a lot too, which was a bonus for me since I just wanted to find them something fun to do while stuck inside and they love Minecraft.

We will definitely be attending again. They are both very interested in Minecraft electrical engineering and the summer camp, if things still look like staying inside is the best idea.

Minecraft Game Design and Minecraft Electrical Engineering both require the computer version of Minecraft, but it can be either Mac or Windows. We have several copies of Minecraft that we can lend to students who don't own the computer version of Minecraft, and we are able to convert student projects to any version of Minecraft at the end of the week so that they can transfer their Minecraft world and creations onto their preferred version of Minecraft after the class is over. -

It is preferred that you own your own copy of Minecraft on PC or Mac. However, we do have a few copies that we can temporarily lend out to students, who do not own it, for the duration of their class. -

My son is 8 with a lower attention span at times. Though he loves Minecraft and gaming, would this be difficult in the comprehension of the materials and keeping up with the class? (Minecraft Game Design) -

Yes, our class is setup for all ages. We have varying prebuilt adventure worlds used for teaching this class to different ages to give appropriate levels of challenge. This class is perfect for ages 8-16, and can be taken several times in a row with new material for each week. -
