Class Experience
1-on-1 computer science tutoring for all levels! Learn to program from the very basics or refine your advanced coding skills! I can teach a wide variety of topics in Computer Science from the basics of control flow (if-statements, while-loops) to the more advanced topics of Data Structures and algorithm design. I have experience teaching a wide variety of programming languages including Python, Java, JS, C and C++, and C#. For beginner students, I will first cover the following topics, in roughly this order, 1-2 topics per meeting: * Console input/output * Variables * Math * if-statements * while-loops * lists * functions Once I'm confident a student is comfortable with each of these topics, I work with them and the parent to determine next steps based on a student's interests. If a student is interested in math, then I might cover binary arithmetic, bitwise operators, and floating point. If a student is interested in game development, then I might cover object-oriented programming and graphics. My teaching style is very student-directed. I describe a concept, then I give the student examples of use of that concept, asking leading questions to guide them thru examples until they are capable applying the concept on their own. If a student is interested in a specific topic distinct from what I'd planned, I am happy to veer into a tangent.
Learning Goals
Students will be able to read, modify, and write computer code that uses print statements, gets user input, uses if-statements, while-loops, lists, and functionsOther Details
Parental Guidance
Students will need some sort of programming environment in order to save their work. The website repl.it provides a coding environment that saves student work online, in which case the student will need to create an account with that site. As an alternative, a student may download PyCharm, a programming environment that will allow students to save their work on their own device. Links to these resources are below, and I am happy to help students get their programming environment set up as needed.
Pre-Requisites
Students will be more successful if they have some level of computer literacy; familiarity with creating, moving, and opening files on a computer. Typing speed of 20 words/minute. Not required, but can make learning easier.
Language of Instruction
English
