My son started his classes from January. We decided to choose group learning for him. His coach Ms Wajiha is very good, she interact with all children and lead them all together, making sure no one left behind in their project. My son awaits for his session every week eagerly as he know he will learn something different every time.

Liam McAughtrie was a talented and fun teacher; my child thoroughly enjoyed her taster lesson with him and has expressed an interest in continuing with the lessons. Liam was patient and explained each step eloquently. Thank you Liam as you have ignited the passion in my child to take computer science as a GCSE option
We recently had the pleasure of our 6-year-old daughter, Abby, participating in a Scratch taster session with Liam McAughtrie, and we couldn't be more impressed!
Liam's ability to connect with young learners is truly remarkable. He created a fun and engaging environment that immediately captured Abby's attention. His explanations were clear, concise, and perfectly tailored to her age, making complex coding concepts easy to understand.
It was evident that Liam is not only knowledgeable in Scratch but also passionate about teaching. He recognized and nurtured Abby's enthusiasm, encouraging her to explore and express her creativity. We were particularly impressed with his patience and his ability to make learning such a positive experience.
Mahfuzur Rahman Is a fantastic and dedicated tutor, my 14 year old missed his class due to illness, but he took time out of his day to organise a catch up class for him! The dedication and commitment of the tutors at Software Academy is remarkable. Thank you 🙏🏽

Software Academy Sets the Gold Standard in Game Development Education!
Software Academy is an outstanding institution that excels in consistency, organisation, attention to detail, and customer satisfaction. From the very first interaction, their professionalism and commitment to delivering top-tier education have been evident. Every staff member I have engaged with demonstrates an exceptional depth of knowledge and passion for their field, ensuring a seamless and enriching learning experience.
My daughter has benefited tremendously from the Level 1 Games Design and Development private tutoring. The team members I’ve had the pleasure of working with—Marley Hamilton, Jane Barrie, Briony Hall, Ali & Saeed Nemati, and Matt Brummitt—have been absolutely fantastic. Their willingness to go above and beyond is truly commendable; nothing is ever too much for them, and they always provide solutions with a smile.
A special mention goes to my daughter's tutor, William Sparkes, who is truly a guru in his field. His expertise in Unreal Engine, games development, and advanced computer science is unparalleled. With years of experience in game creation—spanning mobile, console, and PC platforms—his ability to translate complex concepts into engaging and accessible lessons has been invaluable. His passion for gaming, coding, and technology shines through in every session, making the learning process both insightful and inspiring.
I highly recommend Software Academy to anyone looking for high-quality, professional, and results-driven education in software and game development. Their dedicated team, structured approach, and industry expertise make them the gold standard in private tutoring.
Thank you to the entire Software Academy team for your exceptional service and dedication—we couldn’t be more grateful!

Fantastic!!!!
My son is currently doing his level 2 coding course. I literally cannot fault this organisation. The instructors inspire the children, they can't help enough, and the admin team are the same. My son is loving his course and his confidence grows with every lesson. Highly recommend Software Academy. Fantastic!!

Exceptional teacher & content
Frey made the lesson interactive and he took the time to explain everything to my son on a level he could grasp. Very professional and warm and welcoming at the same time. My son can’t wait to start his lessons and although it is due to the subject matter being taught, it is also because of Frey’s fabulous execution of said subject matter.
