As a 12 year old, many of the lessons in Starter school were difficult to understand, and occasionally, help was not immediately available and one time had to redo the assignment since support person couldn't resolve the issue. Nevertheless, it was a good learning on some of areas and good use of summer time.
Amazing program! My son has learned skills that are the most current and up to date in today's market. This program is not only affordable but will prepare the next generation to be most advanced in technology. Better yet, kids can earn while they learn! Give it a try and you won't regret it!!
Highly recommend this program. It has been great for my 13 year old who struggles with motivation. The cash payouts for his work are very motivating to him and it is very easy to contact starter school when any questions arise. This is a really great option for teens, especially those who are interested in technology as the projects are well done and give them great experience in a broad range of skills. I have a neuro diverse kiddo who struggles with motivation. And this has been a great fit for him.
What a brilliant idea—helping teens explore career paths, build real skills, and boost their college resumes all in one place. When I called for help, I got to speak directly with the founders. Diveej and Jason were both incredibly open to feedback and clearly care about making this a great experience for every student. Highly recommend!
I appreciate that Starter School is focused on closing the tech gaps. Much of their co-ops use apps and technology that aren't readily available in schools. The co-ops are real-world based, but also gamified, making them pretty engaging! Considering the costs of summer tech camps and sports camp, the price is a steal.
Starter School has been a valuable addition to my 8th grader’s homeschool curriculum. My student has always been interested in technology, so I was excited to find a program like Starter School. From a parent’s perspective, I especially appreciate how the program teaches responsibility and accountability. I also really enjoy the “office” interface and the expectation for my student to maintain consistent office hours—it gives the experience a real-world structure. Another highlight is that help is almost always available when my student gets stuck or frustrated with a step in an assignment, which helps keep him motivated and on track. My student would probably say the best part is getting paid for his hard work! One area I’d love to see improved is communication with parents. More regular updates or insights into student progress would help us stay better informed and engaged. I’d also love to see more resources or options for Chromebook users.
My daughter is having a great experience with Starter School. She has been in the program for some months now and has learned a lot. Some of the many hands-on learning projects, such as the AI challenges will prepare her for various "real world" career sectors. Another bonus is that the instructor's office is very easily accessible when needed. Special thanks to Robbee. She has been quite helpful and knowledgeable as well as Diveej! Thank you to the entire Starter School Team!!!
From the very first lesson, my son has approached each new topic at Starter School with an infectious excitement and a genuine curiosity that I had always hoped to see in his educational journey. He is eager to share not just what he has learned, but how he has learned—tackling challenges with a spirit of exploration and perseverance. A particular highlight of our experience has been the engaging presence of the founder and CEO, Diveej, who actively connects with the students and fosters a welcoming, supportive atmosphere. My son truly feels heard and inspired, and he relishes every opportunity to contribute his ideas for new initiatives and improvements. I'm so happy to have found Starter School for my son. Thank you!
I have recommended to all my friends with teens at home this summer. I believe this has been such an amazing opportunity for my son!
My son has been in starter school for a while now and I feel it’s a good time to say our experience has been a really amazing one. When he first started I wasn’t sure what all to expect, but I feel now that this was a really good investment because of all he gained from it. He has always had great interest in the tech world and starting here really has given him a major advantage in the tech arena. His confidence in his skills, and all he’s learning in a fun way has really solidified this will be the path he’s choosing for his career. I’ve already recommended it to friends and am really glad we found this program. It’s really innovative so you just have to have some faith because there’s nothing like this around. It’s really gonna be something revolutionary for our children so I’d jump on the opportunity if you can.
