My son used to only play games. After a few months of coding at Algonova, he builds his own Roblox games and is more confident in school math. His teacher is patient and really follows his progress.
Ibu Ratna
Mother of Dika, 10 · Makassar
We chose Algonova because classes are online but still live and in small groups. My daughter takes math, and now she's the one asking to study. Her school grades went up too.
Bapak Andri
Father of Nayla, 9 · Gowa
We first tried a self-paced app; he got bored fast. With a live teacher he stuck with it — now he creates his own designs and digital illustrations.

What subjects can kids learn at Algonova?
At Algonova kids can learn three areas: coding (from Scratch for beginners to Python & web development), math (an interactive, personalized method), and graphic & digital design. Each child gets a learning path tailored to their age (5–17) and interests.
What age is right to start?
Ages 5–17. For 5–7 we start with visual coding and basic math; 8–12 game design, math, and design; 13–17 Python, AI, advanced math, and digital design. Programs adapt to each child's level.
Are classes online or in person?
Algonova classes are held live online with a teacher, in small groups. Kids can learn from anywhere — no need to travel to a location.
Is there a free trial class?
Yes. We offer a FREE trial class with no commitment. Your child tries a real session with an experienced teacher, and afterwards our team recommends the best learning path.
Does Algonova have an offline class in Makassar?
No, Algonova teaches only online, including for families in Makassar. There is no classroom, office, or tuition centre to visit in Panakkukang, Rappocini, or any other district of the city. Your child learns from home through the Algonova platform, face to face with a teacher they can talk to and ask questions of live, so it stays a live class rather than a recorded video. The effect is simple: your home address no longer decides which teacher is available, and a child from Sungguminasa or Maros gets the same program as a child downtown. You can try the format through one free 60-minute session, one teacher to one child, before deciding anything about payment or a fixed schedule. Regular pricing starts from Rp 102,000 per lesson. Algonova has now taught more than 13,000 children in Indonesia, with a 4.9-out-of-5 parent rating.
How much do coding classes for kids cost in Makassar?
At Algonova, pricing starts from Rp 102,000 per lesson, and the first session is free. As a benchmark for in-person tutoring in Makassar, private-tutor marketplaces list an average rate around Rp 59,000 per hour, while national providers who send a tutor to your home charge Rp 75,000 to Rp 140,000 per hour including the tutor's transport. For children's coding courses, published rates run Rp 400,000 to Rp 1,200,000 per month, and robotics Rp 300,000 to Rp 1,500,000 per month. A cost parents often miss is pickup time and sessions lost when Pettarani or Urip Sumoharjo is jammed in the evening. Because Algonova's classes run online for children ages 5 to 17, neither of those costs appears, and the free 60-minute session can be used to test the fit.
What age can a child join Algonova's classes?
Algonova accepts children ages 5 to 17, with programs split by age group. Children 5 to 7 learn logic through visual blocks, with no need to read or type quickly yet. Children 8 to 12 move into Scratch and build simple games. Teens 13 to 17 continue into Python and web development, and Game Design sits inside the coding track. Math has a separate track for elementary level and for middle and high school, while graphic design is split into two levels. The teacher sets your child's starting point during the free 60-minute session, so a child who has already touched Scratch at school is not restarted from zero. The parent rating for this experience is 4.9 out of 5. We teach every one of these age groups online, including children from Panakkukang, Rappocini, and Tamalanrea, with pricing from Rp 102,000 per lesson.
What time are classes, and do they clash with school tutoring?
We run classes on WITA, Makassar's time zone, one hour ahead of WIB, so the schedule you see is already Makassar local time. The two slots Makassar parents take most are evening after school and night after Maghrib. You and the teacher set a fixed schedule during the intro session, so existing school tutoring, Quran class, or extracurriculars can be avoided in advance. If your child attends SMA Negeri 17 Makassar or Sekolah Islam Athirah, where dismissal tends to run later, the night slot is usually safer. Since there is no round trip, the only time you need to set aside is the class itself, without an extra hour to cross Jalan A.P. Pettarani or Perintis Kemerdekaan during rush hour. The intro session is free, runs 60 minutes, one teacher to one child ages 5 to 17.
Is an online class really effective for elementary-age kids?
Yes, for elementary-age children learning coding and math, the online format works because the material genuinely lives on a computer screen. The teacher sees the child's code and work directly, can point to the wrong line in real time, and classes are kept small so no child gets lost at the back like in a large classroom. The format has now been used by more than 1,000,000 students in 97 countries over the past ten years, including more than 13,000 children in Indonesia. For children 8 to 12, we suggest a parent stay for the first five minutes of the first session, then step back. The free 60-minute session is the cheapest way to test whether your child fits the format, and regular pricing starts from Rp 102,000 per lesson. The parent rating for this class is 4.9 out of 5.
