Why Algonova
Real projects
Code on GitHub from day one
No generic tutorials. From day one your teen writes real Python: mobile apps, Machine Learning models, and 3D video games. Every session ends with code pushed to GitHub.
Selected teachers
TecNM · CINVESTAV · UASLP · IPN-ESCOM
Graduates of technical universities like CINVESTAV, TecNM, and IPN-ESCOM, with real industry experience at companies like Uber, Cisco, and Boletia. 3-stage selection process.
IT career pathway
Python, ML, Mobile Apps, 3D · GitHub
Python Pro (2 years): by the end your teen has real experience with Machine Learning, mobile apps, and 3D video games, an Algonova certificate, and a GitHub portfolio ready for employers and universities.
Python Pro · 2 years
Neftalí Cázares · Python Pro teacher · CINVESTAV
Python Pro · Year 1 (32 classes)
Professional fundamentals: object-oriented programming, data structures, automation scripts, and desktop apps with PyQt5. First real portfolio on GitHub.
Python Pro · Year 2 (32 classes)
Going deeper: data analysis with Pandas, Machine Learning, mobile apps, and 3D video games with Panda3D. Projects to show universities and employers.
GitHub portfolio from the first module
Every project gets documented on GitHub. By the end of Python Pro, your teen has a personal digital brand with real projects: mobile apps, ML models, and 3D games — ready for universities, jobs, and internships.
Real prep for an IT career
No simulations. The projects they build are the kind asked in technical interviews. Two years of constant practice in advanced Python, ML, and app development = a real edge in the job market.
Algonova Teaching Team
Diego went from zero to his first GitHub project in a few months. The teacher connects Python with real AI and app projects — exactly what helps for university.

How it works
Every step is designed so your teen moves forward with confidence, builds real projects, and develops their IT career at their own pace.
01
Free trial class (60 min)
Your teen meets the teacher, writes their first lines of Python, and discovers if Python Pro is the right next step. No card, no commitment.
02
Diagnosis and personal plan
After the class we share which format fits best: 1-on-1 individual or mini-group of 4. If they have prior experience, we place them directly in the right module.
03
Learn Python with real projects
Your teen moves module by module: object-oriented Python, data analysis with Pandas, Machine Learning, mobile apps, and 3D video games with Panda3D. Every project goes on GitHub. 24/7 access to the Algonova platform.
04
GitHub portfolio and Algonova certificate
At the end of each module they present a real project. After Python Pro they receive their Algonova certificate and a GitHub portfolio ready to show employers and universities.

What parents say
Alejandro has been in Python Pro for a year and already built his first Machine Learning model to classify images. His GitHub projects have over 20 commits and you can see the clear progression from basic Python to real ML.
María González
Alejandro's mom, 16 · Mexico City
Valentina wants to study Computer Engineering at UNAM. Algonova gave her a clear path with Python Pro. Today she has real projects and understands the theory she'll see in her degree. The difference is visible.
Roberto Serrano
Valentina's dad, 15 · Guadalajara
Daniel finished Python Pro at 17 and already has 8 projects on GitHub — including a mobile app and a 3D game built with Panda3D. That opened the door to an internship in Monterrey. Algonova changed his trajectory.

FAQ
In Python Pro (ages 14–17) teens learn professional-level advanced Python. The course covers object-oriented programming, data structures and data analysis with Pandas, plus Machine Learning, desktop apps with PyQt5, mobile apps, and 3D games with Panda3D. It runs for 64 classes over 2 years, taught live online by a real teacher. From the very first module, each student builds a GitHub portfolio that documents their projects. The free trial class helps place the student at the right level before starting.
No, prior coding experience is not required. Python Pro is designed for teens starting from scratch, with progress guided by a real teacher in live online classes. If the student already comes from Python Start or Roblox Studio, the free trial class helps us place them in the right module so they advance faster and build on what they know. This way every teen begins exactly where they should, without repeating content or skipping important foundations.

The main difference is age and technical depth. Python Start (ages 12–13) introduces real Python through video games and builds a basic GitHub portfolio, ideal for laying the foundations. Python Pro (ages 14–17) goes much deeper: Machine Learning, mobile apps, and 3D games, with professional-level projects. Both courses are taught live by a real teacher, with the same teacher assigned for the whole course. The free trial class helps decide which one fits best based on the student's age and experience.
They learn applied Machine Learning basics, focused on solid foundations rather than advanced theory. The course covers classifiers with scikit-learn, intro-level neural networks with TensorFlow/Keras, and data analysis with Pandas. It is not a grad-school level: the goal is for teens to understand the key concepts and apply them in real projects documented in their GitHub portfolio. Classes are live with a real teacher who guides each project step by step and answers questions in the moment.
Classes are online and live, taught by a real teacher. There are two formats to choose from: 1-on-1 individual sessions of 60 minutes (1 to 3 times per week), or a mini-group of 4 students for 90 minutes (once a week). In both cases the same teacher is assigned for the whole course, giving continuity and close tracking of progress. The free trial class lets you experience the format and place the student at the right level before enrolling.
They need a computer or laptop (not a tablet), an internet connection, and about 60 quiet minutes to focus. For Python you need to install Python and Visual Studio Code, but don't worry: the teacher walks you through the setup in the first session. Classes are live with a real teacher, so any technical question gets solved right away. With that basic equipment, the teen can follow the whole course and build their GitHub portfolio without complications.
Yes, you can pause the course if you travel. We let you pause for up to 3 months without losing your spot or the classes you've already paid for, so you can resume when you return. We also offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before each class and a full refund for any unused classes. This gives you complete flexibility to fit the course to your family's pace, with no risk of losing what you invested.
The GitHub portfolio built in Python Pro helps with university applications and first jobs or internships in tech. If your child is coming from earlier, the full path starts at Coding 6–9 and 10–13 (Roblox + Python Start), so they arrive well prepared for this level.
Algonova is an international school with 600K+ graduates across 90+ countries and over 10 years of experience, rated 4.9★ by families. Classes are live with real teachers, the same teacher throughout the course, and your child finishes with real projects to show — not just theory.
