Aarom's Story

My passion is coding.
I discovered my passion for coding when I noticed that I enjoyed doing computer related things. As I got older, I wanted to take classes in computer science so that I would be mastered on how the computer works. By attending iD Tech Camps New York, I would be taught more about computers that I probably didn't know. I would also meet new people that want the same passion as me and we can work together to strive for the same goal. I can also be more of a master of coding throughout high school, college, and further into my future.

A Note from Ms. grullon, Aarom's Teacher

Aarom is one of the hardest working students I have come across in my teaching career. He is dedicated, motivated, and willing to put in the work in order to achieve his goals. I have seen Aarom pursue his passion in coding by advocating for himself in order to get into the computer science class that we offer to the upperclassmen at our school. He also always strives to do the best he can in English and I know he applies the same to his computer science class.

Experience with iD Tech

My experience with iD Tech was the best computer science experience I have ever had. I was able to fully get along with everybody in the class and I feel like I have become more advanced in computer science. This camp also taught me how to build teamwork and build stronger friendships with new people.

A one-day programming camp in 1984 helped set me on a successful career that I love. I hope for the same for you!
