Testimonials

Even in the short time I was at the camp I learnt so much about technology, but more about how people can achieve professions that they love and enjoy. Everyone’s enthusiasm about their professions inspired me to find what I love and pursue it. I am now much, much more interested in technology-related careers. They are so much fun.

I feel that this camp has completely changed who I am. It has given me more confidence and a new look at the technology world. It is an eye-opener for me and it got me quite excited about my career in Engineering. I will definitely recommend this camp to others because you get to meet so many new girls your own age and plus, you have so much fun learning new things that by the end of the day you are disappointed that it is over.

My favorite session is the mobile application class. I can’t wait to start earning money from the app developed at the camp. I feel very lucky that I was chosen to attend this program

I liked the activities very much because they helped us to have a hands-on experience of what it is like to work in areas of STEM. I learned how to think out of the box and create things by working together with my group members. It let me get a glimpse of what it is like to work in the real-world engineering and technological field. I can use logical thinking and teamwork that I learned through the activities to solve problems that I face in real life.<

At the Introduction to Mobile Programming platforms, I had a great time from the very start. Mr. Walter demonstrated the principles of mobile Applications. We were then given the opportunity to create our own app. It was awesome to see that our apps were published! It was also fun to meet new people, work with a partner I never met before, and share my knowledge with my family on the last day of camp.
