What will kids learn in this course?
Our web development classes for kids help students gain a comprehensive understanding of web development techniques ranging from basic to advanced. Students will explore CSS frameworks such as Bootstrap to create responsive, mobile-first websites, and use JavaScript libraries such as jQuery to improve their web development skills.
How are our classes structured?
Throughout the advanced HTML, CSS, and JavaScript course, students will learn how to create and style web pages using advanced HTML tags and CSS properties, as well as how to make their websites more interactive with JavaScript. They will also touch on subjects like CSS syntax, colors, backgrounds, borders, margins, padding, box models, text, fonts, icons, and more. Additionally, the course delves into JavaScript fundamentals, events, DOM manipulation, and user input handling, giving students a full grasp of web programming.
Building quality websites
By the end of our web development classes for kids, students will:
- expand their knowledge of HTML elements, attributes, tables, forms, responsive design, and layouts
- be able to create high-quality, responsive, and interactive websites on their own
- have the skills to tackle real-world projects or pursue further studies in the industry

Berlitz Digital School methodology
What makes our teaching method unique?
Developing patience and problem-solving skills
Theory and instruction are provided, but students work independently to solve programming challenges to enhance their patience and problem-solving skills.
Learning through trial and error
We don’t provide the final solution to the programming problems or projects. Instead, we encourage students to think freely, make mistakes, learn from them, and find the answer on their own.
Receiving supportive guidance
When students encounter a difficulty, our trained instructors help them solve the problem by breaking it down on the whiteboard.
Building creativity
Kids practice and increase their creativity by working on projects, games, and applications. And because there is no one-stop answer, children put into practice the theory they have learned during the lessons. The final result is higher-quality, less buggy games and apps.
A comprehensive learning path
Students must complete one level in order to progress to the next level since the concepts taught in our courses are interrelated. This ensures that students have a solid foundation in all of the key programming ideas and principles. They will also learn critical thinking and problem-solving skills that are necessary for success in the digital age.
Result-oriented approach
Each lesson begins with a 5-minute summary of the last session about web development for kids before moving on to a 10-minute discussion of new ideas. Then, students will spend the entire class practicing what they learned in previous lessons. Following the course, students might do short exercises in the LMS, a Kahoot quiz to recap all they have learned or get further challenges.
Expert instructors
Our instructors have extensive knowledge of web development for kids and deliver engaging courses to help students understand and implement complex programming topics. With our classes, students get a solid foundation in the latest skills and technologies. They also benefit from the insights of instructors with real-world experience, which may help them develop successful careers in the IT business.
Why should kids learn with Berlitz Digital School?
Content designed for all levels
We offer web development classes for kids of all ability levels, from beginners to experts. We have certified and experienced teachers who can teach your kid the basics of programming as well as more advanced topics like game design and web building.
Guaranteed fun in our houses
Students take a personality test before the classes begin to be assigned to a house with peers who share their values and passions. They can participate in challenges and activities to gain experience and even run for office in their house's government. The best students from each house are rewarded with prizes at the end of the year.
A unique teaching method
Our classes reflect the importance of practice in the learning process. We believe that making mistakes is essential to exploring a new field such as web development for kids, and we allow our students to experiment freely when met with a problem. This method not only improves the problem-solving skills of our students but also makes them more patient when they face an issue. To encourage our students to find individual solutions, our instructors provide guidance by breaking down the solution on a whiteboard.
Projects and extra activities
Students can enjoy a wide range of exercises and activities with us. During the lessons, kids have a chance to apply their skills in practice and complete various challenges, as well as solo and group projects. To assist them in learning and improving as a programmer, we also offer extracurricular activities like hackathons and coding competitions.
