Zenith Prep Academy

My son took two courses at Zenith - Web Development and Software Development. These courses are not just about learning computer language, but more about applying those skills in developing real life applications. At the of the course enterprise quality applications were built. This whole process has helped in improving problem solving skill.
Instructors at Zenith are very knowledgeable and true professionals, understand how to pace the program still keep students motivated. Highly recommended!

My son (age 15) took the Zenith Web Development class and really enjoyed it. He had no software experience but came out with the ability to build a full functioning website (even learning completely online thru Covid). He has always been against any type of tech class but ended up really happy he had taken this one. The instructor was great at teaching the kids the building blocks and then having them use the blocks to create their final design. Would totally recommend this class!

My 12-year-old son loved the "Programming - Web development " and "Programming - Software development" classes by Zenith prep.
We took 1: 1 class for Web development and instructor taught the concepts very nicely. The exercises after the class were very helpful to strengthen the foundation.
We opted for group class in summer for Software development. The class was very interactive and the concepts were explained with good examples. The practice exercises helped my son to think logically and solve the problems on his own and address any gaps in understanding in class reviews.
At the end of the programming courses, my son has developed very good foundation and lot of interest in programming.
Being software professionals ourselves, me and my husband really liked the way the course content was laid out to cover the concepts in a way kids can understand and learn without getting overwhelmed. We highly recommend the computer programming classes from Zenith prep for 6th graders to high schoolers. The content and interactive sessions, practice exercises differentiate the course from other online courses.

Interacted heavily with Kevin Hong, William Chung, and Samuel Fung over the course of the last 3 months. Amazing caliber of hard-working professionals! The team works tirelessly, into late nights and weekends, accommodating their client parents’ schedules and students’ needs. Very impressed with how the team’s divided and succeeded in their roles, their quick assessment of my child’s strengths and areas of opportunities, laying out different learning options, with a recommended “actionable” target plan. In a mere 2 months, also very happy with my child’s project achievements, having attended Zenith’s Web Development intensive bootcamp. Nonetheless, their excellent teaching instructor, interactive teacher/student sessions, and most of all, “results-oriented” project deliverables (with tremendously-useful feedback) helped reinforce and solidify an effective working approach to my child’s pre-college development needs. Also looking forward to the next Zenith Software bootcamp, to continually build on this momentum and positive trajectory! Thank you Zenith!

We found Zenith from Facebook ads. I was looking for a good college prep counseling center that takes care of the process end to end. I couldn't find any in the bay area. Most of them were helping with writing essays and the prep for SAT and other tests. But no other place owned the entire process. We found that only Zenith does this. My son is in 7th grade and after a few meetings, Zenith figured out his interests and started working with him on a plan. His interest is in computer science and he (and I+my wife) wants to get into the top 10 colleges for computer science.so he has been recommended to take a web design course this summer. He knew nothing about web-design before this class, one can imagine what a 7th grader would know in web designing. He took 15 classes and after these classes, he can do professional-grade websites now. The class also taught him to organize his code, critical problem-solving skills, etc. He is now ready to participate in hackathons and already registered for his first hackathon. College application is a long journey and starting early is important. We are confident now that we are in good hands with my son's college prep.

My daughter attended the summer course for SAT prep and found it very helpful. The class were taught online and at a good pace. There was sufficient details including how to approach the questions. They also provide regular summary and analysis of student progress.

Zenith Prep Academy is a very professional yet student interest led counseling centre. I was very impressed with their approach which combines best practices with helping a student excel in their area of interest. The counselors are very well informed and are prompt to respond to any questions we have. The whole effort of the team is encouraging the student to work hard and develop successful practices which will lay a foundation for future success.

My son took their Web Development Class online and is very happy with his experience. He was very motivated to work hard in the class. The IA's in the class were very good to work with. I especially loved the detailed feedback after the class, which focuses not only on the technical part but also on the work ethics and tips for a building successful work habits. He is now looking forward to the Software Development class.

My daughter has been with Zenith since 8th grade and is now a rising sophomore. Zenith has constantly encouraged the best from her and is consistent in providing helpful resources to build up her resumes and skills outside of a classroom. My daughter participated in Zenith’s Web Development online course in April, and although she was hesitant at first, she is now confident in her abilities to code from scratch and looks forward in doing so.

We are very happy with Zenith Prep Academy. My kids loved the Zenith programming class. They proactively worked on their homework in advance of the next class, and could not wait for the next class. Unlike prior programming classes they took, which were superficial and overly theoretical, the Zenith class actually taught them how to build something tangible, bolstering their conference and excitement about CS. The TAs are excellent and helpful too. I work in software, and can see how the curriculum has been crafted and iterated upon several times to have maximum learning impact. Thank you Zenith!

My son took Web Development and Software Development classes offered by Zenith Prep Academy, and I am sure that it is worth every penny! It was not the first coding class we tried, and my son is naturally interested in this topic but Zenith Academy classes not only lighted his interest several times more but brought him on a completely different level. He was ready to fly on his own. He built his website and started working on his own projects learning more and more AFTER all classes ended. I have never seen him waiting for every next class so badly, and he really was sad when classes stopped. We even suggested to build next class, for example, for Java programming. We would take it without hesitation!

My son enjoyed the one-on-one Software Development class. The curriculum was carefully designed to teach him the fundamentals, get him the logic thinking behind the coding, analyze the mistakes he made and provided good coding practice along the course. He also got the personal attention and feedback in the private on-line class. At the end of the class, he was proud of himself that he not only learned a new computer language but also built a website that he had never thought he could.

My son has taken the 1-on-1 Software Development class and told me that it was great. The instruction is very knowledgeable, professional, responsible, and enthusiastic. The class was engaging and interesting, given at the student's pace. My son really enjoyed the class and he has made a fully functional website similar to Facebook at the end of this class. The class teaches not only the languages but teaches universal coding skills. Zenith followed up when the class was over to provide us feedbacks on my son’s performance, which is very nice and helpful. I would recommend this class and Zenith.

Both my daughter (9th grader) and my son (6th grader) love Zenith’s web development and software development programming classes. Their passion for coding has increased after taking these classes. Excellent teachers and great coding projects!
