Learn to code with maids as classmates; Now in Japan

In Tokyo there is the school MadeInMaidFamily that offers courses where you learn together with cute maids as classmates.
Their current offer is a beginner course in Unity for VR/AR in C#, the fee is 3000 yen.



The idea behind it is that the maids will motivate the students that lack the motivation to learn it by themselves.

They also see it as a benefit for the maids which will learn those coding skills that might be used in a later career, since being a maid often isn't viable after the mid-20s.

As a developer I like this idea, it's always good to teach coding to people. However, I'm not sure whether it's more of a motivation or a good kind of distraction ;)
As a maid fan, did I mention the maids? ^^

In case of the maids, if they are really interested in it (not just another paycheck) and can learn enough to use the skills (more than just beginner courses), then this might even help a bit to improve the diversity in developers. Which in my experience is always a benefit and important source of ideas/solutions.

Anyway it's another unique idea only in Japan.
