We offer LIVE E-Learning Classes to students aged 5 – 18. We look forward to welcoming your child with us! For younger ones who require help to get started online, register for our complimentary 30-minute onboarding session here.

We usually have both physical and LIVE E-Learning Classes available.

Our offerings are always in line with the latest restrictions from MOH, and there are times when we will have to offer our classes fully online. The latest status update can be found at our Official Coding Lab Covid Advisory Page.

Rest assured that our Coding Lab 360 online platform ensures that you will not be missing out on anything as the duration remains unchanged and we continue to bring the same award-winning curriculum to your child. We encourage you to reach out to us at +65 6977 9641 or learntocode@codinglab.com.sg if you require assistance to set this up for your child. Detailed instructions on accessing our full suite of HBL resources will be emailed to you separately.

For all LIVE E-Learning classes, the material covered, curriculum and lesson duration remain unchanged. Our team has worked hard to adapt our award-winning curriculum for LIVE E-Learning to ensure a seamless transition from physical classes to online learning.

Measures we’ve taken include:
– Investing in specialised professional software and equipment to aid in LIVE teaching
– Reduction of class size ratios for optimum learning
– 24/7 access to e-notes
– Complimentary HBL Concierge service to assist you with pre-course set-up and any questions you might have about our LIVE E-Learning classes

We would love to ease you and your child into our LIVE E-Learning class smoothly from his/her very first session. Do reach out to us at +65 6977 9641 if you have more questions or need any help.

We believe that every child should learn to code, and our team works towards ensuring that this can be easily achieved through our LIVE online classes. As coding is the language of computers, learning to code online is possible!

• Our small class sizes allow our tutors to focus their full attention on each and every student, so help is available for any issues faced.
• We also encourage students to share their screens at all times, especially if they are having trouble, so that our tutors can guide them through their thought processes and codes in real-time. 

We strive to nurture future leaders in technology, and that is not only limited to coding. We have worked hard to ensure a 100% seamless transition to online classes, which our students can attest to. They gain computer literacy and the ability to independently do online learning. In fact, most of our students who have attended our online classes have no issues doing MOE’s HBL, which is much more complicated than our LIVE classes. 

Rest assured that we are here to help you through navigating online learning. Before your class, you can sign up for our complimentary 30-minute HBL Concierge service with our friendly Enrolment Consultant here, which will provide LIVE guidance and ensure that you have everything that you need set up.

MOE has implemented full-scale Home-Based Learning (HBL) across all Singapore schools. Therefore, your child is highly encouraged to get a suitable device for learning online, which can also be used to attend our LIVE E-Learning Classes. To nurture his/her further knowledge in digital readiness (schoolwork, coding, etc), every child is encouraged to get his/her own personal learning device to further their individual learning. 

*Under the National Digital Literacy Programme, all Singaporean secondary students can purchase a Personal Learning Device with the Edusave top-up of $200. 

Ideally, an Android device (phone or tablet) should be used for our App Inventor classes (P201 App Inventor 1, P202 App Inventor 2 and P21S Advanced Computer Scientists). The iOS version for Apple users or an online emulator can still be used, though certain features may not function as well. Thus, we recommend the use of an Android device, which can be used across multiple classes in our Ages 10-12 roadmap.

Yes, we fully understand. Rest assured, our online classes allow kids to learn independently! In fact, you can sign up for the complimentary 30-minute run-through here with us so that we can guide your little one through the set-up and they will be able to attend our classes. No need to worry about any difficulties faced during class, our tutors will be there to help them out – and our small class sizes ensure that everyone is keeping up with the lesson!

Did you know?
Our students are encouraged to share their screens with the tutors at all times. Tutors can take over their screen, and help them along with their code. It is as though the tutors are right beside them, guiding them through! This is only possible with coding, because all the work that is done, is done on-screen! 

Most students who have attended our online classes have no issues doing HBL with MOE, which is much more complicated than our LIVE teaching experience. Our team understands the difficulties of navigating online learning on your own, so we have worked hard to ensure there is a 100% seamless transition to online. 

MOE has implemented full-scale Home-Based Learning (HBL) across all Singapore schools. At Coding Lab, we have experience teaching kids aged 4-18 online – and have made it simple for everyone to grasp with online tools. 

Most of our students are engaged and learn coding through fun in our age-appropriate classes. What better way to learn coding than to use related technology to pick it up? Every hour of class, we will take a compulsory eye break to inculcate and instil good eye care habits in all of our students. We all know the benefits of having breaks – it gives us a breather and helps us to be productive and stay focused. We enforce eye breaks in our physical classes, and we will continue to do so in our online classes.

Thank you for signing up with us! You can sit back and relax now. As soon as we receive your request, we’ll email you the details and guides as to how you can access your E-Learning classes, as well as what you should do. Our lesson materials and notes can also be mailed directly to your home*, just give us a call at +65 6977 9641 or email us at learntocode@codinglab.com.sg if you haven’t yet requested for it (*Only available for students in Singapore. For overseas students, courier charges apply).

As our student, you will be granted access to our full suite of HBL resources. Aside from classes being live-streamed to you via video conferences, pre-recorded videos-on-demand is also available for you to catch up or revise if you missed out on anything. We also encourage frequent home practice via our online system and course-specific forums, which allow students to submit their code for grading anytime, anywhere, and have their questions answered by our tutors.

Our HBL Concierge service will be happy to assist you. Simply give us a call at +65 6977 9641 or email us at learntocode@codinglab.com.sg to book a complimentary HBL pre-course briefing and set-up session with us, so that we can guide you and your child through. Our lesson materials and notes can also be mailed directly to your home.

A stable internet connection is required for our LIVE online coding classes and HBL for MOE schools. Here are three things you can do: 

1. Try restarting your modem and router by turning off the main switches, waiting 30 seconds to 1 minute, then turning it back on again.  

2. Troubleshoot your slow internet connection. 

• SingTel Broadband Users: troubleshoot here or call 1688 (available 24/7).
• StarHub Broadband Users: troubleshoot here or call 1633 (available 24/7).
• M1 Broadband Users: troubleshoot here or call 1627 (available 24/7).

3. Consider these 5 tricks to strengthen your Wi-Fi from Tech.gov: 

• Find the ideal spot for your router. It should be in the centre of your house and high on a wall or top shelf, in an open space with no walls, obstructions or other signal-interfering equipment (eg. cordless phones, old Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens, reflective/metallics surfaces).
• Update the firmware. These regular updates have security patches and other improvements. Some routers have built-in update processes and older models may require you to download firmware files. 
• Time for an upgrade. If you frequently face network-related congestion issues that cannot be attributed to a slow broadband connection, your router might need an upgrade.
• Wi-Fi extenders aka Wi-Fi boosters or repeaters. These improve Wi-Fi coverage by receiving wireless signals from your router and repeating them using powerful amplifiers and antennas. 
• Mesh networking devices. A mesh network comprises separate routers called nodes that use Wi-Fi to communicate with each other, each providing a full Wi-Fi signal in each room they are placed in. However, these are more expensive than Wi-Fi extenders. 

For MOE’s HBL, a laptop is needed for a number of platforms to load. Therefore, it is recommended to get a laptop for your child, which can be used for all online classes, especially in these uncertain times of COVID-19 online learning has become commonplace.

We understand the difficulties of attending E-Learning Classes for parents and students. If you are worried about whether your child can navigate the Zoom platform for class, our friendly Enrolment Consultants will schedule a 30-minute LIVE call to get your child set up and run through everything that he/she needs to know before class.

This includes:
– How to join a class
– Navigating the Zoom interface
– Downloading the relevant software
– Answering any queries that you might have!

We fully understand, being parents ourselves. That’s why we’ve ensured right from the start, even for our physical classes, to inculcate and instil good eye care habits in all of our students. 

All of our students take compulsory eye breaks for every hour of classes with us. We recognise that this also gives everyone a breather and the added benefits of being productive and staying focused on classes.

Our classes are a mixture of teaching and hands-on learning, where students code and solidify the concepts that they have learnt, then have discussions and reflections to reiterate what they have learnt. The mixed learning will ensure that our students are engaged and have a true understanding of their codes. 

To ensure that classes are manageable and productive, we have also instilled in our students the importance of taking eye breaks after every hour of class. We all know the benefits of having breaks – it gives us a breather and helps us to be productive and stay focused. We enforce eye breaks in our physical classes, and we will continue to do so in our online classes.

During breaks, our Educators will encourage students to drink up, go to the washroom, and look out of the window. We have also compiled a list of wellness resources to guide them through caring for their physical and mental well-being. This will be done through class activities such as eye exercises, simple stretches and deep breathing to promote relaxation and meaningful exercises that they can do at home.

Don’t worry, we know the difficulties of navigating a new platform. Our Teacher Edmund breaks it down step-by-step to guide you through downloading Zoom and creating your very own account. This video is especially useful for little ones between the ages of 4 and 9! ⁣
