Worried about your child's Roblox screen time?
It's 2026. Games are built to keep kids hooked.
Fighting that rarely works, so I work inside the world they already love.
At Hoda Camps, we build worlds inside Roblox.
Kids learn real skills while building things they care about. Math and programming included.

“Rafid was absolutely wonderful with Layan. He was patient, creative, and made learning fun. She didn't even notice how quickly the session went by! Rafid is one of those rare teachers who makes coding feel like a fun adventure. If you're a parent thinking about booking a session, I'd 100% recommend it. Your child will learn, laugh, and feel inspired the whole time.”

But Why Roblox?
Video games are now three times bigger than music and movies combined.
It's where kids spend their time, energy, and imagination.
Your life might live on Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, and Netflix.
For your kid, everything lives inside Roblox.
Since 2017, I've taught thousands of kids to code —
and nothing captures their focus like Roblox.
So instead of fighting it, I use it.
Inside Roblox, I teach game design, coding, AI, storytelling, and video creation.
It's still play — but now it leads somewhere.
Why choose me?
I'm Rafid Hoda — a programmer, teacher, and creator.
For 25 years, I've been building things: games, apps, websites, and films.
I studied math at the University of Waterloo in Canada, speak four languages fluently, and my online courses have reached over 15,000 students through Coursera, freeCodeCamp, and Scrimba.
Since 2017, I've taught over 1,000 kids to code in person through camps and workshops.
I even built my own programming language, HodaScript, to make coding simple enough for anyone to learn.
I'm passionate about empowering regular people to learn just enough to start improving their lives.
Through Hoda Camps, I want to inspire kids to see themselves as creators in a world where everyone else is too busy consuming.
