Blue Shift Coding

Heather Lyons,

Met with Jacqueline de Rojas

We run creative, project-based coding and robotics clubs and camps using the latest methods of teaching.

The classes are for children aged 5-14 and cover animation, robotics, coding in games design, engineering and … Minecraft!

We use an evidence-based approach towards teaching computing to inspire and empower children to be future innovators.

Jacqueline gave me valuable direction and advice, and also motivational support for pushing my business forward. I feel very fortunate to have connected with her and look forward to communicating the development of my company with her.
