Homework
1 hour per week. Homework will be optional and given every other week, give or take. It is used more as a review of content covered. Homework will largely consist of practice code and conceptual review. The work can be completed individually or with other students. Students are encouraged to use any source including the teacher and the internet! Again, homework is optional, but I highly recommend it as it helps learners get a better understanding of the structure of code.

Class Experience

In this class, students will explore the possibilities with programming at their own pace with 1:1 help. This is an introduction to help learners develop an understanding of logic and critical thinking when it comes to code. Topics that will be covered include: variables, data types, containers, functions, modules, debugging, and more! I will be writing code real time and explaining the step-by-step process of what and why I'm doing. My teaching philosophy is to get learners involved with the learning rather than just experience it. No prior experience or knowledge is expected. Schedule-wise, we will be meeting once a week for at least 2 months. This will cover topics essential for learning how to code. After the 8 weeks, I'd consider these classes optional. These classes will explore topics more in-depth or cover topics that students are interested in.  

Week 1 : Getting started, working with markdown and code cells. Python overview.
Week 2: Data types: integers, strings, and floats 
Week 3: Python containers: Lists, Tuples, and Dictionaries
Week 4: User Inputs and Flow Control
Week 5: Functions and methods
Week 6: Libraries/Modules
Week 7: Input/Output (I/O)
Week 8: Review or Module Exploration
Week 9 onward: Extra classes! (Small projects or in-depth topics, or person's choice!)

Learning Goals

Learn the basics of coding and programming using the Python language with 1:1 help. Students will learn how to code, create algorithms and solve problems using Python. They will gain a solid understanding of fundamental concepts of the language like data types, variables, functions and modules. Additionally, students will be provided the opportunity for a hands-on experience of coding. Overall, the goal is to give students a strong foundation in programming and the ability to continue learning and growing as a coder. 

As a 1-on-1 class, there is also more flexibility on subjects covered if a student has a deeper interest in one subject of programming over another.

Supply List
No supplies will be necessary. If the learner wants to follow along with their own code, they can use Google Colab! (Google Colab is free if you have a Google account similar to Google Docs).
