Class Experience
Create your own video game with personalized lessons! I'll guide you, no matter your skill level, while you develop coding fundamentals and build a game you love. Ideal for absolute beginners or budding experts alike. In each 1-on-1 class, I’ll work with you to plan the features you want, then introduce the necessary Python and programming fundamentals as we bring those ideas to life. If you’re completely new to coding, I’ll start with the basics and suggest fruitful directions for experimentation, but most of your learning will come from hands-on work on your actual game. For more experienced learners, I’ll offer guidance on advanced techniques while adapting to your pace and interests. Every session is flexible and tailored to your goals, ensuring you gain confidence and practical skills as you create a unique, playable game.
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 functions.Other 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.
