Live, instructor-led Python & AI learning for young beginners

Students learn through live instruction, hands-on projects, and consistent support from real educators — even if they are starting with no prior coding experience.

We do not teach students to rely on AI prompts to generate answers. We teach what AI is, how it works, when to trust it, and how to verify output with real programming fundamentals.

What makes Kanam different

Families usually choose between self-paced platforms or tutoring. Kanam takes a different approach—combining structure, live teaching, and outcomes.

Learners follow a clear curriculum, build real projects each unit, and get guidance that keeps progress steady and confidence high.

Common approach

Self-paced videos

Watch-first, mostly solo learning.
  • Watch-first lessons
  • Limited live feedback
  • Easy to fall behind without support
  • Best for highly independent learners
Common approach

Unstructured tutoring

Helpful help, but outcomes vary.
  • Helpful one-on-one guidance
  • Pacing varies week to week
  • Often no shared curriculum
  • Outcomes depend on the tutor
Kanam approach

Kanam Academy

Structure + live teaching + outcomes.
  • Live, instructor-led learning (Zoom)
  • Structured beginner curriculum
  • Project outcomes every unit
  • Support built in, not an add-on

Kanam is designed for beginners who need clarity, encouragement, and structure—not shortcuts.

Why families trust Kanam

Kanam Academy was built to make complex topics like coding and AI approachable, structured, and safe for young learners. We combine a clear curriculum with live instruction so students aren’t left guessing — and families always know what’s being learned and why.

Kanam is built for clarity and support. Learners don’t get stuck alone—real instructors guide them live, step by step.

How Kanam works

Structured instruction. Human guidance. Measurable progress.

  1. 01

    Join

    Enroll in Kanam Academy Foundations (Ages 12–15). Families receive a simple start checklist so learners begin confidently.

    Outcome: Clear setup + cohort start

  2. 02

    Build

    Attend live, human-led Zoom sessions and complete guided practice. Each week ends with a concrete build.

    Outcome: Weekly project milestone

  3. 03

    Grow

    Refine projects, debug with support, and practice explaining your work. Finish with a capstone showcase.

    Outcome: Capstone + explanation skills

What learning looks like

Live Zoom instruction

  • Real-time teaching with examples, questions, and interactive practice
  • Clear lesson outcomes and checkpoints
  • Beginner-friendly pace with supportive guidance

Practice + projects between sessions

  • Guided practice tasks tied to the week’s concept
  • Projects that build from fundamentals (variables → logic → loops → lists)
  • Human help when stuck + structured review before moving on

What students finish with

  • Weekly builds they can demo
  • A rules-based helper (automation logic)
  • A capstone project they present and explain

Project Path: What learners build step by step

Every unit leads to something tangible — not just knowledge, but confidence and capability.

  • Human-led instruction
  • Project-based learning
  • Students build real, explainable work

AI is taught within real computer science foundations.

We teach AI alongside programming fundamentals, logic, and critical thinking — so students understand how it works, when to use it, and when not to.

Safe learning environment with guidance

How AI fits into our curriculum

  • Students learn core programming before using AI tools
  • AI helpers are built using rules-based logic
  • Prompting is structured and guided
  • AI output must be reviewed and revised
  • Projects require explanation in the student’s own words

What students actually learn

  • Logic and loops power automation
  • Data inputs shape AI output
  • Bias and error are discussed openly
  • AI can assist — but it does not replace understanding
  • Students present and defend their final projects
