Testimonial

My son Sean attends LearningSpring School and is presently in the Redwood class. He has been taking GameU classes in Game Design for three years through its Accelerate program. Sean very much looks forward to his Saturday morning class with his wonderful instructor Zack. Sean has been learning computer coding and game design via a curriculum that is targeted to his interests and abilities and which expands as his knowledge and skills grow. He has also participated in GameU’s workshops for computer animation, comic drawing, and photo manipulation. Simply put, GameU provides a unique opportunity for children of all abilities, including those on the autism spectrum, to learn valuable, much in demand skills in a fun, safe environment. They also connect with those of similar interests. In my view, whether a child takes one or many of GameU’s classes, he/she will greatly benefit and may even embark upon a lifelong interest that could open a pathway to future educational and professional opportunity.
