“Everyone should know coding”
“Everybody in this country should learn to program a computer, because it teaches you how to think.”
-Steve Jobs
Computer programming is rapidly increasing in popularity and importance, and has a wide variety of practical applications. Learning such an important skill will exponentially expand your employment opportunities as well as provide an impressive addition to your college applications. SpringLight Education Institute provides a variety of computer programming courses, covering the most popular languages from a beginner’s level to a competition level.
SpringLight Education has been professionally teaching Java programming for 4 years and has had exceptional reception among the community. Our class covers the content found in a first year introductory course to Java programming, and requires no prior experience.
Our AP Computer Science class has achieved excellent results – 80% of our students received a score of 5.
SpringLight has also been providing USACO preparation classes for 4 years with amazing results. Many of our students have received awards at the Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Finalist levels. As long as students can understand the condensed content and do the homework, they will quickly be on their way to the upper levels.
