- Basic data types in Python (integers, strings, lists, booleans)
- Input/output operations (`input()`, `print()`)
- Type conversions (`int()`, `str()`, etc.)
- Example of a simple linear algorithm in Python
- Conditional statements: `if`, `elif`, `else`
- Tasks using conditionals
- `continue` and `break` operators
- Practice: tasks using conditions and `while` loops
- `while` loop: basics, syntax, examples
- `for` loop: syntax and examples
- Tasks using `while` and `for` loops
- Differences between loops and choosing the right one
- What are functions and why use them?
- Defining functions: syntax and examples
- Function parameters and return values
- Local and global variables
- Practice: creating simple functions to solve tasks
- String methods: `lower()`, `upper()`, `replace()`, `split()`, `join()`
- String indexing and slicing
- Tasks involving string manipulation
- What lists are and how to work with them (creation, adding, deleting elements)
- List methods: `append()`, `remove()`, `pop()`, `index()`
- List slicing
- Tasks involving list operations
- What tuples are and how they differ from lists
- Sets in Python: how they work and why they are useful
- Sample tasks using tuples and sets
- What dictionaries are in Python
- Creating and working with dictionaries
- Dictionary methods: `keys()`, `values()`, `items()`
- Tasks using dictionaries
- What recursion is, examples and tasks
- How to write recursive functions
- Pros and cons of recursion
- Tasks using recursion
- What lambda functions are
- Syntax and usage examples of lambda functions
- Final task: creating a project using all learned concepts (conditions, loops, functions, collections)
Example Projects
Creating Snowflakes Using Turtle
Controlling a Rocket in Space
This program draws colorful snowflakes of random sizes and at random positions on the screen. It demonstrates the use of recursive functions to build complex graphical elements and randomly select colors. Students learn how to control the turtle, use loops, and work with coordinates.
This program creates a mini-game where the user controls a rocket using the arrow keys. Students will learn how to handle keyboard events to control objects, change the screen background, and work with images. A great example of user interaction with graphics.
Parent and Student Reviews
- “My son is finally spending time on the computer doing something useful! Now he can create his own games and is even considering a future in IT. Thank you, Studytech teachers, for your engaging lessons that inspire kids to learn and develop in today’s world.”IrinaMother of a student
- “We turned to Studytech to teach our son a new programming skill. We were worried about the online format but couldn’t manage in-person classes. All my concerns disappeared once I saw how the lessons were conducted – the Studytech team organized the online learning very well.”AntonОтец ученика
- “I really like the kind teachers at Studytech. They always help if something’s unclear. And there are great kids in my group too!”AlisaУченица, 9 лет
- “Thanks to Studytech, I learned to code in a short time. Some classmates are amazed because I can do magic with just a few lines of code. The lessons are fun, with a new topic each time.”IgorУченик, 12 лет

Frequently Asked Questions
Lessons are held in an interactive format on the ZOOM platform. Children work in groups of 5, allowing the teacher to give attention to each student. The program includes theory, practical tasks, work on a final project, and fun quizzes and contests. We strive to make learning both useful and engaging!
Your child will not only learn to write code, but will also master key programming principles, develop logical and algorithmic thinking, learn to solve problems creatively, and collaborate in a team. Most importantly, we’ll spark their interest in the IT world and help them take their first confident steps in this exciting field.
Yes, all sessions are recorded. Course participants have access to the recordings throughout the course and even for a while after it ends. This allows your child to review the material anytime if they missed a session or want to refresh their knowledge.
No, parents don’t need to be present. Our teachers are experienced professionals who know how to work with kids and create a positive learning environment. The program is designed so that children can learn and complete tasks independently.
