And already at the stage of signing the contract, I did not like working in this organization. Despite the fact that the course program and the teacher are completely satisfied, the payment information indicated on the website is different. The website shows the cost of 415 BYN per month, and when trying to enroll in the course, not only does the contract need to be concluded as much as 2 months before the expected start, but also an advance payment needs to be made immediately 2 months in advance. And then 1 more day before the start. So what is the point of specifying "415 BYN per month" if, in fact, the payment for the course is completely different?
Plus, when I asked why I have to pay for 2 months now, even if it's not a fact that the group will gather, they answered me like this: "we have such terms of the contract. if you don't want to, don't agree." I really don't want to become a student of this company, despite the suitable program.
My name is Markov Gleb. I am studying at the IT Academy for the second year. Since I learned about the computer, I have become more interested in games and applications. Suddenly I realized that I wanted to make games myself. Then I transferred to this wonderful school and decided to study programming. There are very kind and smart teachers in STEP. They are always ready to help with a difficult task or a difficult topic. I also found new friends and quickly got used to the team. Already in a year I have achieved new results and realized that all this is not in vain! But this is just the beginning. Therefore, I will continue to study in STEP.
The review was written by my son, Markov Gleb, a student at the STEP Academy, MB21023
There was a choice where to go to study. We chose the academy STEP. I like everything so far. Teachers provide high-quality information. The child is happy and does his homework with interest. The city center, near the metro .I recommend.
I have been studying here for two years now, each review has a different opinion here, since each group has its own teachers... For example, in the first half of the year, I had a nice woman who worked in parallel at a mathematical university or something like that... Now the teacher is an active programmer... The homework is great! Yes... There are days when I stay up late, but you just can't imagine the happiness that comes to me after successfully defending the project! Everyone's classes will be different because, for example, my first teacher has already left...
It is a Step school, a very cool school in which I study for almost a year. This year I learned a lot, I got good results with computers. And I also like that the school is located near the subway. I really like studying at school now I'm in 4th place, but I strive to become a leader in the group and on the stream
The child has been studying for 2 years and has achieved very good results. Competent and polite teachers, interesting classes. Skills are very helpful when studying at school
Everything is cool, the money is worth your money,There are convenient boilers,good teachers, and in general, you can come to a trial session, and you understand the academy step
The child has been walking for four years. I expected more. Everything is set on stream and there is no individual approach. It seems that with self-education (YouTube), a child gets more knowledge than by attending a computer school Step.Disappointed.
the guy told me how he studied there as a child, they studied robotics, in general he liked it, but it was very expensive to pay and the poet had to stop studying

Computer Academy - there are classes for children and adults. I study in an adult group, it is very convenient to study in an offline format, which is now offered by the units. The information is new, quite complex, in large volumes. In addition to theory, there are high-quality practical classes, a lot of "chips" and life hacks. I like.
A good educational institution that is able to provide modern knowledge in the IT field and robotics and interest young and old. A young team crippled by its work. In the full-scale educational process (with homework and laboratory work), game techniques are used. Compared to other similar courses (and they were also not chosen "at random"), which we attended before we learned about the step from friends, the result is immediately visible.
my favorite courses. which ones I didn't go to, these are the best and most instructive of course. I've been walking for 2 years now and I don't regret it
An excellent IT school. A modern approach to learning is accessible and interesting. Two children are studying, the eldest daughter is already in the fourth year of children's IT training, the youngest is in the first year. I recommend it!
It has been half a year since the completion of the courses, and I decided to write a review.
They write on their website that 97% of students find work. I must say right away, do not believe it, most likely 3% find it.
The course was unstructured and the information was not well presented. The teacher in the frosted block was a beginner and constantly forgot and hiccuped information on the Internet. The database unit was also incompetent by the teacher. He didn't even have teaching materials or presentations.
The educational department refused to solve the issues.
The diploma they are writing about is of the European standard, and it is not actually advertised in Europe.
A very good academy. All courses keep up with the times. At the moment, all courses are relevant and in demand. Cozy classrooms and a cozy conference room
The academy is very good, the teachers are excellent - they have experience because many of them are programmers by education. But then there's the problem. Normal training is dz.
pluses:
-convenient location.
-interesting teachers, the material is presented in an accessible and understandable way, you can write to the teacher at any time, he will always help and prompt.
- the training department is also always in touch, you can always solve any problem.
- an electronic diary.
-the ability to study remotely.
minuses:
- overloaded classrooms, a lot of students.
- for some items, for example, the "basics of drawing", you have to buy consumables yourself. often, it is not a cheap pleasure for a short course.
in my opinion, the training is somewhat delayed.
overall, a very pleasant impression of the Academy, I recommend it)
At first, the child attended a trial online lesson, he liked it so much, they decided to try to study. All the equipment is new, everything was explained in an accessible way in the first lesson. My son came out of class with the phrase: why don't you come here every day?! I was afraid that there would be problems with parking, but it turned out not everything is so sad, while I'm waiting for classes, there are a lot of places to drink coffee or take a walk.
My son has been visiting for a year! And I never missed it! He walks with pleasure!
We will remain faithful further, then we will argue the result. But for today, we are very impressed!
Hello. I took Internet marketing courses, which lasted 7 months. Of all the blocks, I liked the contextual advertising course
. Igor Novitsky taught the course. He explained it very clearly and in detail. There was only practice in his subject. Compared to the
rest of the teachers, he is the best teacher. He talked not only about his subject, but also about the rest
of Internet marketing, as opposed to the rest. On the subject of SEO, I personally waited for the training to begin,
but in the end nothing happened, I wanted to interrupt the training, then there was a contextual advertising course, Igor taught, it was
cool, I received specific knowledge + a gift of his books and useful programs and websites for work. My advice to you is,
if you went to a course and you are offered to register in class programs (but you did not understand anything), then do not do it,
since there is a free trial period of 14-15 days, and then you need to pay money, then you miss the chance to use these programs for free.
It's better to figure it out first and then start using them. I don't know which teachers are teaching now, but if Igor Novitsky stayed, then I'm sure you
will be satisfied and will not regret that you went to study. Good luck to everyone!
It's a very interesting place! I was at an open lesson, it was very interesting and informative.
My son walks with pleasure. it is clear that the child is interested. He comes after class and immediately does his homework.
The educational process is set at a high level, these are not Soviet schools and academies.
Also, as for me, the location and architecture of the academy building are interesting, it is actually located in the center of Minsk.
And what warms the soul most of all in the current conditions in our country is that our youth sees their future and development in IT, and not in bureaucracy or gas-oil corporations, as in Russia!
Therefore, I give the academy a STEP, a strong five!!!
Hello. A few words.
1) Business model - long courses, the longer the better.
2) The rate (salary) of teachers is about 100 rubles per lesson. This is lower than in other schools. If you are a teacher, look at other schools in the Republic of Belarus. If you are a student, think about whether the teacher will give you more for 100 rubles than for 200 rubles. Again , see p .1. Believe me, there are not many ideological ones here and still everyone goes to teach for money.
3) Greedy management. I was careless in terms of cooperation. After completing the work on creating the course program, I was told that the program was worthless. That is, my time is worth 0p. If you plan to write material or a course for them, think about it and do not work without TK and a contract for the performance of services. Otherwise, your time may cost 0p.
4) Courses lasting 2 years. This is the finish line. If you are studying, know that in order to go to the Juno classes, it is not your technical skill that is important, but the ability to learn English. You can look for a job after completing the courses in 2-3 months and not wait 2 years. Your certificate of employment will cost exactly 0. As well as my time. At the same time, you who graduated from the courses at 2 years old and your competitor after the courses at 2 months will be on equal terms. And believe me, if a competitor has better English or knows better the tools that are needed for the project and not everything in a row, he will come in and you will not.
5) I can't answer anything about children's education. paragraphs 1-4 apply only to adult education. The information concerns the center in Minsk.
Last year we worked out somehow, in the summer they unilaterally changed our schedule and put classes on weekdays, as they explained, in order to finish the course faster, but my child, let's say, has weekdays scheduled and he cannot attend classes, so we signed up for classes on Sundays.
This year, classes in the software direction were put on Marx, although no one warned at the conclusion of the contract that classes for the second year were not held in the office at Prytytsky. But the most important thing is that "Practicing teachers with experience" turn out to be students without experience and specialized education, who conduct classes on ready-made manuals. The first year we put up with this because there was more swing in different directions, but in the second year we would like an experienced teacher, and we put our former student, without experience in IT at all. It's good that the schedule was posted in advance, we managed to Google the teacher and find another training option.
The best computer school in Minsk! For all ages and with different levels of training: from zero to advanced. The possibility of obtaining a professional education. Large material base, competent teachers, professional methodological support. Convenient location in the very center.
I recommend this academy for IT education. Good teachers. An interesting course program, quite detailed, and not just basic knowledge. If there are difficulties, they always help to figure it out.
It's a very cool academy. The teachers explain the topics clearly and help. I am especially grateful to Maxim Sokolov. He gave me the motivation to take pictures and now I'm taking pictures more often.
I graduated from this academy and am not disappointed at all, very friendly people who teach well, good computers for studying, I advise you to study there if you want to connect your future with programming.
As a father, I am dissatisfied, first: a very high monthly payment, I think this money does not give knowledge, second: in terms of PC training-from scratch, we got to the wrong place at all, although I asked at the reception(because I gave a computer to a child for a doctor)
My child likes these courses and that's the main thing!
Hello, I am 16 years old and, as a person who was sent to this academy at the age of 11, I studied for 5 years at courses for schoolchildren, I am finishing these courses.
Honestly, I am extremely dissatisfied with the learning process. This course has a little bit of everything mixed in (PS, Java, Js, Html, animation, robotics, etc.).
In the third year of study, when programming began, I realized that this was not mine, and I was really looking forward to design and 3d sculpting, but there was no necessary equipment, so I had to do everything myself and Unfortunately, very little time was devoted, both to design and character development, etc.
I do not understand why it is impossible to spend a couple of each subject for familiarization, then give the child a choice and do one thing?? Or give the opportunity to transfer to another course with the material of interest?
I want to say a special thank you to M.A. Sokolov and E.I. Valko. They are excellent teachers in photography and illustrator, Unity and Blender+Zbrush.
Honestly, I would not advise anyone to send a child at such a young and unconscious age to these courses. It is better to come, consult like that at the age of 14-16, save money and time for the child
A great place, competent and qualified teachers!
The classrooms are equipped inside, everything is nice and tidy. I recommend it for additional education!
