Class Experience

This class will teach the very basics of how to program in Minecraft using command blocks!  Students will gain skills that can be used to start creating games of their own inside of Minecraft itself!

No prior experience in coding or commands is required, but experience with how to control the game Minecraft itself is a must.  The class will take place completely inside of Minecraft allowing the students to learn hands-on by typing the code with me.

My number one goal is to make sure that every single students understands what we're doing, why we're doing it, and how it works.  As such I will spend a lot of time explaining each topic and making sure there is plenty of time for questions.

Your student MUST HAVE Minecraft JAVA Edition.  This is NOT the iPhone version, iPad version, or Bedrock edition.  Make sure they are logged into the game BEFORE class starts.  They MUST also have access to MULTIPLAYER from their Minecraft account.

Watch this SUPER SHORT video to make sure that your Minecraft is setup properly!  (Make sure to update the game to the current version, not 1.18.1)

Teacher expertise and credentials
I teach programming and game design inside of Minecraft!  I have been creating games in Minecraft for over 10 years and even have my own TedX talk on the subject!

The most important thing to me is making sure that every student knows both why and how the code works.  Thus I make sure explain everything in great detail while using plenty of real life examples.  I also give ample time to ask questions to make sure all students fully understand the content.
