Hi everyone! I'm Philippe, and I'm thrilled to introduce your children to the exciting world of coding through their favorite games and platforms.
What Makes My Classes Special?
I believe in learning through play. That's why I use popular platforms like Minecraft, Roblox, and Unity to make coding fun and engaging for kids. In my classes, your child will gain practical coding skills that can be applied to future academic and career paths. I focus on encouraging creative problem-solving, providing a safe and supportive environment where every child can learn at their own pace.
What Will Your Child Learn?
In my classes, we cover basic coding concepts like variables, loops, and conditionals. But it's not just about the technical stuff! We also explore game design principles, learning what makes games fun and how to create them. Your child will have opportunities to work on team projects, developing collaborative skills and learning to communicate ideas effectively.
I place a strong emphasis on critical thinking, helping your child develop the logical reasoning skills crucial for problem-solving. And of course, they'll gain confidence in using and understanding modern tech tools, boosting their overall technology literacy.

As an instructor with a degree in Computer Science specializing in Game Development, I bring both expertise and passion to every class. I tailor the learning experience to match different skill levels and interests, ensuring that each child gets the most out of our time together.
I'm committed to helping your child develop future-ready skills. In today's world, where technology plays an ever-increasing role, the abilities they'll gain in my classes will be invaluable. But perhaps most importantly, I'm here to help unleash your child's creativity. There's nothing quite like watching a child's imagination come to life through their own creations!
Join me in exploring the exciting world of coding through games. Together, we'll empower your child with skills that will spark their curiosity, boost their confidence, and open doors to future opportunities.
