I do reviews rarely, however, this camp was WAY below an average camp. My son (EDMO Pro) was in a 2-week camp for robotics and a 1-week camp for Minecraft mod programming.

1- The camp regular hours is from 9 am to 3 pm (without before/aftercare). Out of those hours, only 2 hours is spent on learning (or as they call it enrichment). I wouldn't have a problem with that kind of schedule if for the rest of the day they had some fun. But sitting there and watching instructors playing together without involving kids is not considered a summer fun activity for 5th-8th-grade students.

2- The instructor and the staff at the robotics camp were nice but unfortunately the instructor didn't have adequate knowledge of the subject. My son knew more than he did. The description on their website was misleading otherwise I would have never signed up my son for a camp that is below his level of knowledge.

3- The instructor at the Minecraft mod coding camp was not only incompetent but also what I would describe as an obsessed, non-professional instructor. The first day of the camp the instructor spent half an hour on a threatening pep-talk that if you do this and that, so and so will happen. When my son asked him about a line of code to learn why he should write the code like that the instructor reply was: "because I said so". All the time the only thing they were allowed to do was to copy the code, no questions, no discussion to explore or figure things out was allowed. It is very unfortunate to see that EDMO camp's definition of learning and having fun is to copy from the instructor without asking a question. That sounds more like a factory model of education. We are in the 21st century and things have changed dramatically.

To summarize our experience with camp EDMO: zero learning and zero fun.
