We believe that every student learns in his or her own way, not only in what they want to work on, but how fast and how much. Our Coder Tree® is a visualization of our students' learning options as they grow and a sampling of some of the topics we teach. Like real trees, our students' coding journeys are unique from each other, but all require strong foundations and trunks to support their higher, advanced branches. Need a magnifying glass? Here's a zoomable view.
Custom coding means tracking progress is even more important! Our suite of proprietary tools* does just that. Our Coder Progress and Notes+ systems chart weekly progress through concept tracking and freeform notes. App Reviews track longer term progress by identifying current skills to build their individual Coder Tree®. Finally, our Student Portal is a one-stop shop to see it all and then some! Confused? It's complicated! Get an idea by clicking through a Sample Student's functional Student Portal to see for yourself.

My name is Tammy Nguyen and I’ll be the General Manager/Owner of theCoderSchool Tribeca location. This location will be the first one in New York City. Before moving to New York City, I was a prolific Real Estate and Mortgage professional in San Francisco Bay Area, earning #1 rep status five years straight at her brokerage for volume of transactions and loans. I earned my BS from San Francisco State University. In my free time, I bring my competitive spirit to running, having completed 6 major marathons, it is something I am very passionate about. Additionally, my true obsession is cooking, as I have tried cooking hundreds of different recipes originating from all corners of the globe. As a mom, I also love helping my daughters, Chloe and Kelis navigate their way through their teen years.
I decided to focus on coding education when I moved to New York and there was a dearth of hands-on coding schools for my daughters, Chloe (13 yo) and Kelis (12 yo). Coding schools were few and far between, and the ones available had poor teacher-student ratios and non-progressive teaching methodologies. I wanted my daughters to have role models and aspirations to be the next Sergey Brin, Bill Gates or Sheryl Sandberg. If I was able to expose Chloe and Kelis to a fun and engaging way to learn coding, then they could make their own decision to go deeper in pursuit of an eventual career in technology.
I wanted to do something at scale after realizing many families are having similar challenges to finding coding programs that can be relevant and stick. I believe in the possibility of enabling every child in New York with the opportunity to learn coding in a way that keeps them interested and engaged.
