“First of all, Pretty Brainy is really fun. I didn’t actually think that it was going to be really fun because I didn’t really like engineering, and my parents want me to be an engineer, and I’m like, ‘No’. But this was actually really fun. I guess I had a misconception about what engineering was. Now I like engineering.”

“The Pretty Brainy workshop has increased my interest in computer science. I was never really aware of how coding worked before this class and I hadn’t really done any of it. I like how Pretty Brainy lets us figure out by ourselves how to use the code vs. teaching us step by step.”
