Hello! If you are looking to give your child a strong programming foundation with Scratch, this course is perfect for you. Although new coders of any age can take this course, it is would prove the most beneficial for ages 5-14.
My teaching method is all about hands-on experience. Your child will create games and applications by themselves. I take complex computer programming concepts (like loops, variables, event-driven programming, coordinates and angles) and turn them into fun characters, animations, analogies, drawings, and engaging activities.
This course nutures your child’s creativity to help them imagine how the games we create and the concepts we learn can be extended. After completing this course, they’ll be ready to tackle text-based programming languages with confidence.
My content is designed to be an absolute blast! I explore animation, fun sounds, cool effects, and even recreate popular games like Flappy Bird. These games are carefully selected to make learning programming a joyful journey.
Join me for a coding adventure your child will cherish and enjoy! Enroll today and watch your kids grow in the world of creativity and programming.
