1
The Hook
Unpack a new concept through active group games and activities.
→
2
The Sandbox
Turn that concept into reality by building a personalized project with peer-to-peer guidance.
→
3
The Spark
Walk away with a finished creation to show off, and the curiosity to keep learning beyond the
classroom.
Our Team
As local high school students, we wanted to create the kind of program we would have enjoyed when we
were younger: fun, hands-on, beginner-friendly, and completely free.
Our goal is not to turn every student into a programmer. Instead, we hope to help students discover new
interests, build confidence, develop problem-solving skills, and have fun creating things.
“Computer science is so much bigger, deeper, and more exciting than the surface-level coding
we are usually taught in school.”

Our Generous Sponsor
A big thank you to our supporters making free classes possible!
Completely free, every time. Local sponsors make it possible, so
you’ll never see a charge or a fee.
Our classes are designed for students in 7th through 9th grade
(roughly ages 12–15). Both younger and older students in that range are warmly
welcome!
Perfect, honestly. We start from zero and go from there. The only
thing your student needs to bring is some curiosity.
Each Sunday session runs from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and follows a
lively, hands-on format. It begins with a quick welcome and icebreaker, then moves into an
engaging lesson with real-world analogies and interactive activities like sorting games,
chaos simulations, or building in Scratch and CircuitVerse. Students spend most of the time
working on exciting projects, ending with a short debrief so they leave each week with a
tangible creation and new understanding.
No problem at all. Each session is fully self-contained, so
there’s no makeup work and nothing to catch up on. They can simply rejoin the
following week and jump right in fresh.
Absolutely. Sessions are drop-off friendly; you’re
welcome to leave and come back at noon. Responsible adults are on-site at all times, so you
can feel confident leaving your student with us.
Your student will build exciting hands-on projects every session,
including logic circuits, interactive simulations, and fun games that they get to take home
and show off. By the end, they’ll walk away with a collection of tangible creations that
demonstrate real computer science concepts, all while having a great time in a low-pressure
environment.
A responsible adult will be present at all times alongside our
high school student session leads. A safe, comfortable environment is a non-negotiable
priority.
Yes! Our team personally sends confirmation emails from thecstutors039@gmail.com. We’ll also
use that address for session reminders and any updates.
I’m a senior from Innovation Academy High School who has been passionate about computer science
since third grade! Ever since I created my first basic web page, I’ve spent years building
full-stack projects and exploring the fundamental “how” that makes things work. After
dozens of hours guiding students through complex concepts in math, physics, and CS, I’m excited to
share the things that make computer science so fascinating with students like you. My goal is to make
every session a fun, creative sandbox where we can throw out the dry school lectures to learn something
new and build some cool projects as a team. Outside of tech, I enjoy practicing karate, reading fiction,
and listening to J-pop.
Vihaan Bendigiri
I’m a junior at FCS Innovation Academy with a passion for engineering, high energy physics, and obviously
the significance of computer science in the modern world and its applications. Prior to the end of
middle and beginning of high school, I was largely inexperienced in CS and thought it was too hard a
subject to learn about but now, I have grown to love it and find it interesting - so I hope I can
inspire that same love and learning for those who aren’t experienced in CS, for those who think they
aren’t interested in CS, or for those think there is a steep learning curve and are nervous to try it
out (like old me!). Also, I enjoy doing taekwondo, playing and watching other sports, and watching some
awesome movies

Bio coming soon.
A Letter from the Founder
Welcome!
When most people picture computer science, they see a lone programmer staring at lines of code or staring
at a corporate spreadsheet. And honestly, looking at tools like ChatGPT today, it’s easy to think,
“Well, a machine can do that in thirty seconds. Is there even a point to learning this
anymore?”
If you have ever felt that hesitation, I want to give you an emphatic, absolute yes.
It would be a tragedy if a creative, sharp young mind walked away from computer science just because they
didn’t think the job market would support their passion. Giving up on computer science right now
would be like giving up on math the moment the calculator was invented. It misses the whole point (and
the real beauty!) of the discipline. Computer science is so much bigger, deeper, and more
exciting than the surface-level coding we're usually taught in school.
Now that AI can take care of the tedious, repetitive stuff, we are finally free to teach students what
actually matters: big picture thinking, creative architecture, and true problem-solving.
The “Buffet” Approach to Learning
When some people go to an all-you-can-eat buffet, they try to load up on the most expensive dish to get
their money’s worth. But to me, the real joy of a buffet is the freedom to try a dozen different,
unique things you’ve never seen before.
We believe in that approach to learning, too.
We believe lessons should be low-stakes, modular, and genuinely fun. We aren’t
here to dump dry, college-style lectures onto middle schoolers. Instead, we want to give them a curated
tasting menu of the tech world. Every week, we want to point at a new, mind-bending concept and say,
“Hey, look at this. Look how cool this is.”
Igniting Real Curiosity
The best lessons don’t just move information from a whiteboard to a notebook. They make you
want to keep Googling answers on your own time.
That’s why everything we do is hands-on and tangible. We don’t expect a seventh grader to
master quantum computing in two hours a week. But through interactive, collaborative games and
activities, we can show them that a computer network or an operating system isn’t just an abstract
concept. It’s something real, physical, and beautifully designed.
Whether our students are building a game, simulating a physical circuit, or literally acting out how data
moves through internet routers, they will always leave our sessions with proof of what they
accomplished.
We live by a simple rule: Lessons have to be fun before they can be inspiring. By
showing students how massive and creative this field really is, we want to help them discover a lifelong
passion they might have otherwise missed out on.
Thank you for joining us on this journey. Let’s build something incredible.
