The lecturer was able to explain difficult concepts in a concise manner. Easy to follow and remember, thus making it more feasible for students to apply such methods quickly.

Mr Thake
I felt that it was a very educational and fun experience which enhanced my knowledge about gaming. I was inspired. It was great, getting to know other people who I never met before. There was a time for everything - we worked, we played and we cracked jokes together. Probably the best computer institution on the Maltese Islands. There was a stimulating environment and instead of letting summer go by I was productive from a creative point of view. A fantastic adventure!
