Hi! We are Noel, and Danielle Mateo, co-owners of theCoderSchool Las Vegas and we are super excited to teach Las Vegas kids how to code! At theCoderSchool, we want to do more than just teach coding. We want aspiring coders to use their newfound passion as a stepping stone to thinking outside the box, as a way to channel their ideas in a creative way and most importantly, to have fun. Danielle is an educator with the Clark County School District where she teaches computer science, web design, and business software applications, and is also an adjunct information systems instructor at Nevada State College. Danielle was the Las Vegas winner of the 2018 National Center for Women in Technology Educator Award and is a member of the Clark County School District Information Technology Advisory Committee. Noel is a corporate meeting and event consultant and being in the hospitality industry for years, loves taking care of people! Before becoming a corporate event consultant, he did some computer programming in Hawaii, taking his first coding classes in COBOL and Fortran as a student at the University of Hawaii. Noel and Danielle along with their two children, Alexandra and Michael, moved to Las Vegas from The Big Island of Hawaii 18 years ago. They wanted to contribute to the Las Vegas community now that their children are grown, so they teamed up with Silicon Valley’s number one children’s coding school, to open the first theCoderSchool location in Las Vegas in October of 2018 and soon to be in Henderson Summer 2020! We believe that every student learns in his or her way, so we focus on a mentor relationship with an experienced Code Coach® who will teach your child how to program a computer in a fun and engaging way. Our programs are for students at all skill levels, ages 7-18, and progress through a broad array of languages from Scratch to Python, JavaScript, Java and much more.
