Every week, students are requested to do simple homework and send it to me. I will give them comments if they have done. It takes about 1 hour to finish. It is no pressure at all since the homework just helping them to consolidate what they have learned in the class. They will enjoy doing that. :)Assessment
We will have a note and assignment every week to check if students understand what they have learned.Class Experience
Are your children interested to learn coding with Python? Advanced Python requires students to have basic knowledge of Python. In this course, students will learn the basics of the Python programming language by using fun and interesting examples. I will teach them the basic syntax of Python. After the class, they can create and run their own simple programs or games. The topics will include: Lesson 1, Week of Oct 12th: Introduction of Python: HelloWorld, Variable, Input, and Output. Lesson 2, Week of Oct 19th: Conditions and Type Conversion: if...else statement, Implicit conversion, Explicit conversion, Operators Lesson 3, Week of Oct 26th: Conditions and Loopings: For loop, If...elif….else statement Lesson 4, Week of Nov 2nd: Turtle: the basics of using turtle library to draw Lesson 5, Week of Nov 9th: While Loop and Random: while loop, break, continue and how to use random to create a game. Lesson 6, Week of Nov 16th: Function and List: How to use a function, turtle, list, and random to draw a picture. Lesson 7, Week of Nov 23th: Usage of List: Create a game Yahtzee. It is a dice rolling game that will use what students have learned. Lesson 8, Week of Nov 30th: Create a turtle racing game. Learning Nested loop and Tuple. ... It will be fun, join us!
Learning Goals
Students will learn the basics of Python and they will feel confident to use Python to solve math questions, or creating games by themself.

My name Paul Yiu, I am an online teacher and mainly teaching Olympiad math, Coding (Scratch 3.0 and Python), and Abacus math. I have master's degrees in Computer Science and Information Services Management, a Brain Gym instructor, Play Therapist, Abacus, and Olympiad Math mentor, committed to providing after-class programs with group classes and 1:1 individual tutoring services for mainstream and SEN (special educational needs) students since 2013.
I am one of the supporters of Happy Learning. Most of my students would have more confidence after class. I would encourage students to look for answers by themself.
