Next-Level Coding for Grades 6-12
From Minecraft and Scratch to AI and Data Science with Python
Build the technical skills for tomorrow's leaders through STEM project-based learning that challenges and inspires
Take your student's technology skills to professional levels with our Grades 6-12 coding programs! Beginning with Minecraft's engaging block-based coding and advancing to Scratch's interactive programming before transitioning to Python's powerful data science capabilities, we provide a clear pathway to mastery.
Students build a comprehensive skill set including algorithmic thinking, code syntax fluency, data analysis, programming logic, and project management - essential competencies for future careers in tech.
Through hands-on projects that simulate real-world applications, they'll develop the problem-solving confidence and technical foundation needed for success in tomorrow's digital landscape.

Get ready to level up!
Our 6-12th grade programs are perfect for students who:
Are curious about creating with code rather than just consuming technology
Enjoy solving puzzles and figuring out how things work
Want to build impressive digital projects they can showcase
Are interested in exploring potential career paths in technology
Desire a creative outlet that combines logic and imagination
Are ready to develop practical skills that extend beyond the classroom
Students can start their journey wherever they are—complete beginners will discover coding fundamentals through accessible tools like Minecraft Education, while those with previous experience can challenge themselves in our advanced Python data science track. We meet each student at their current skill level and guide them toward their next achievement. Students can start as early as 6th grade with no coding background and ultimately graduate high school with college-ready programming portfolios!
What they’ll learn
In these coding courses, students learn to develop their own applications and games using popular programming tools. This project-based approach enhances critical thinking, logical reasoning, creativity, and communication skills—beneficial across multiple subjects.
By the end of the course, students will have created a functional project, showcasing their skills to parents and peers. This experience builds technical proficiency, collaboration skills, and self-confidence preparing them for future opportunities as creators, innovators, and leaders.
What's Included
Students are admitted on a rolling basis throughout the year.
Payments are due by the first day of the course unless it is your first free trial day at TaliTech.
Flexible payment options available. We want to give all children an opportunity to learn these vital skills that will set them up for success! If you’d like to discuss alternative payment methods, contact us to work out a flexible payment option for you.
