See how our 60-minute trial runs—laptops provided, a tailored lesson with coach check-ins, then a quick parent debrief. Simple, friendly, and zero pressure.
TL;DR: We provide the laptop, run a tailored mini-lesson to gauge skills and interests, check in throughout, then debrief with parents afterward. Simple, calm, no pressure.
Welcome & quick orientation (2–3 mins)
A friendly hello and a brief check that your child is comfortable with the device, keyboard, and mouse.
Coach-led lesson (hands-on, usually Scratch for first-timers)
We run a short activity designed to be engaging and revealing. The coach circulates and checks in constantly—offering gentle nudges, asking “why?” questions, and noting strengths and next steps.
Light wrap-up (2–3 mins)
A quick “well done” and saving or handing off any project work. There’s no formal show-and-tell during the trial; the focus is on observation and coaching.
During the activity, the coach observes your child’s:
Right after the lesson, we’ll share:
There’s zero pressure—you decide whether to sign up.
Do we need to bring anything?
No. We provide the laptop and software.
Can we arrive early to talk?
Yes—your coach will be on site 30 minutes before the lesson start time.
Can I see my child’s work?
Absolutely. You’re welcome to do so at the end, and we’ll save or hand off the project so you can review it together at home.
How do you decide the right class?
From in-class observations—comfort with core concepts, independence, and interests—so your child starts where they’ll thrive.
Computational thinking isn’t about computers. It’s about how kids solve problems. At Skill Samurai, children learn to break problems down, recognise patterns, focus on what matters, and build clear steps, strengthening creativity, logic, and confidence.
Research shows children thrive when praised for effort rather than identity. Encouragement builds resilience, motivation, and a growth mindset—helping kids embrace challenges, learn from setbacks, and develop confidence grounded in what they do, not who they “are.”
Abstract thinking is challenging for children, but maths and coding help them build this essential skill by teaching patterns, logic, and problem-solving in fun, structured, and accessible ways.
