CodeSpeak Labs prepare youth to have an impact by teaching them the language of the 21st century: computer coding. We're committed to training the next generation of diverse, engaged techies who will build a better world.

Jobs in computer programming are among the fastest-growing and highest-paying opportunities in the world today, but 90% of schools do not offer any computer science classes. Computer science is the #1 major at top universities like Stanford and Princeton (where CodeSpeak Labs' founders went to school).

We teach computer programming to students grades PreK - 12 during and after school. Our curriculum includes Google's Blockly, MIT's Scratch, robotics, HTML/CSS (web development), Javascript (interactive websites, game design), Arduino (programming hardware/circuits) and Python (general purpose programming language), as well as skill-building in entrepreneurship, communication, and design.

Through each stage of the program, students build working websites, apps, games, and more, and parents receive updates via email on their child’s progress and are able to view and share their work.

We believe that the mindsets that students develop are just as important as their technical skills. We help students become critical thinkers and inspired creators who have fun and think about questions of technology ethics. As one of our students shared, “Coding is important because we can use it to create technology that can help people who have disabilities, explore science, and deal with pressing issues to mankind, such as global warming. To create technology for any of these thing you absolutely need coding.”

We're based in New York City and Orange County, CA. CodeSpeak Labs is a member of the CSforAll Consortium, the national network of CS education providers, funders, and researchers working to support the mission of expanding access to CS education for all K-12 students.
