Class Experience
This is a one-on-one (1:1) private class to help students learn Arduino coding at their own pace and level. I am eager to introduce the Arduino microcontroller to beginners who have no coding experience and I am equally excited to help more experienced Arduino users who wish to learn how to do more advanced coding using various devices. I can teach beginner students how to use a wide variety of sensors such as LEDs, buzzers, thermistors, photoresistors, ultrasonic sensors, RFID readers and I can teach them how to use actuators, such as stepper motors, servos, DC motors, LCD displays, etc. I can also help more advanced students who are struggling with the hardware or software of an Arduino project. Students can use an actual Arduino in conjunction with the Arduino IDE downloaded from www.arduino.cc, or an Arduino simulator called, Tinkercad, located at www.tinkecad.com. Please contact me to arrange a meeting time and provide me with the topic or device you wish to learn about in order to make sure it is a good fit. If students need help with a particular sketch (code) that isn't working, please provide me with a copy of the code as well as the desired function a few days in advance so that I can look at it before we meet.
Learning Goals
Students will increase their ability to code an Arduino using a variety of sensors and actuators - based on their desired learning outcome.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Students can either use an actual Arduino for this class or use an online simulation, called Tinkercad. If they use the read Arduino, they will need to download the Arduino IDE from www.arduino.cc or use the online version at create.arduino.cc.
If they choose to use Tinkercad, they will need to create an account at autodesk.com and log into www.tinkercad.com.
Supply List
Students need to either have an account with www.autocad.com to use the free TinkerCad circuit simulator or download the free Arduino IDE (version 1.8.13) from www.arduino.cc.
You can buy the components separately, but it would be more expensive than buying a kit that has all the parts you need and more.

I have been a private school middle and high school science teacher for over 30 years. During that time, I taught classes in chemistry, engineering, earth science, life science, chemistry, forensic science, biology, and health. I enjoy teaching through hands-on experimentation and I believe that students learn best when they are activity engaged in the learning process.
I am an amateur photographer and love to photograph my grandchildren, my dog, and wildlife. I enjoy creating scrapbooks from my photos. I also enjoy tinkering with my Arduino and 3D printer to create inventions of my own.Reviews
