Utah Based, Taught Live Online
Coding Classes for Kids in Utah
Private 1-on-1 coding, game design, digital art and AI classes for Utah students ages 6 and up. One instructor, one student, a full hour a week, taught live over Zoom from your own home.
Based in Riverton, UT. Utah Fits All accepted and it can cover the full cost.
A Utah Teacher, Not a Call Center
Most online coding programs for kids are national chains that drop your student into a group of eight and a shared curriculum. Tech Tails is a small Utah company in Riverton, and every session is one instructor with one student. Your child works on what they actually want to build, at the pace they actually learn, with the same instructor each week who remembers where they left off.
Because we are in Utah, scheduling is in Mountain Time. Classes fit after school, in the evening, or during the day for homeschool families, without translating timezones or taking whatever slot an east coast provider has left.
Instructors are working professionals with project experience for brands like Disney, Activision and Riot Games, so students learn the tools studios actually use rather than a simplified classroom version of them.

Paying With Utah Fits All
Utah Fits All is the state education savings account, and its funds are approved for private tutoring and online instruction. Utah families regularly use it to cover weekly Tech Tails sessions outright. Funds are held in an Odyssey account and reserved for Tech Tails as your provider.
Students with disabilities may also qualify for the Carson Smith Opportunity Scholarship, administered by the Children First Education Fund, which pairs naturally with the Navigator program.
Teaching Families Across Utah
Classes are live and online, so a student in St. George gets the same instructor as a student ten minutes from our Riverton office.
Utah Parent Questions
Do you offer coding classes in Salt Lake City?
Tech Tails is based in Riverton, Utah, just south of Salt Lake City, and every class runs live over Zoom rather than at a drop-off location. Families across the Salt Lake City metro learn from home, which means no commute after school and no seat limits at a nearby center.
What ages do you teach?
Students start as young as 6 in Basic Computer Skills, and most coding, game design and digital art students begin at 7 or 8. There is no upper limit: teens work on portfolio pieces and college ready projects with the same instructors.
How much do classes cost in Utah?
Sessions run $55 to $65 each depending on how often your student meets, billed monthly on 3 to 12 month packages. Many Utah families pay nothing out of pocket by using Utah Fits All scholarship funds. The first class is a free 30 minute trial with no payment details required.
Can I use Utah Fits All for coding classes?
Yes. Utah Fits All funds are approved for private tutoring and online instruction, which is exactly what these classes are. Our Utah Fits All page walks through reserving funds in Odyssey and what to expect.
When are classes scheduled?
You pick a weekly time that fits your family. Instructors schedule in Mountain Time, so after school, evening and homeschool daytime slots all work without the timezone math that out of state providers require.
