Beginner Level
Your student will learn how to code with Python, one of the world's most popular coding languages. There is no experience necessary for this class and it will be fun for everyone! Students will even build their own mad libs and rock, paper, scissors game, and animation using Python. This is a highly interactive class with students encouraged to interact with other students and the instructor regularly outside scheduled class times. Your student will be amazed at what they can do at the end of...
This class is taught in English.
Students will be introduced to Python and learn the foundations of the language. This allows them to confidently move onto more complex code and continue their coding journey. The Camp is also intended to encourage students to get excited about the possibilities of coding and computer science!
Over 5,000 students from nearly 100 countries across a variety of platforms have started coding in one of my classes. I offer classes covering the foundations of Python, JavaScript, and AI. I am the author of the soon-to-be released book All About Python for Kids. Before teaching, I worked as a developer for nearly 10 years. I've worked for organizations including Apple, Dell, and Best Buy. I believe the best way to learn is by doing and all my classes are based around hands-on projects that progressively build in difficulty. I'm a graduate of Mount St. Mary's University in Emmitsburg, Maryland. I can't wait to meet your learner in the class and get started soon.
