* I like to keep my classes really small so I can focus on each child- my price per learner is based on that. ** Scratch Jr is different from Scratch. It lays a strong foundation for Scratch coding but it is a totally different software/interface. In this class, I will be helping students to understand coding through Scratch Jr. Scratch Jr. is a free app that can be downloaded onto an iPad/Chromebook/ Android tablets. It does not download on a computer/laptop or an iPhone. It is highly recommended to use two devices one for watching the class and the other for working on Scratch Jr. as kids this age find it hard to switch between screens. The class will be divided into four days and on each day we will have multiple challenges for the students to perform as they learn. This class will be highly interactive and we will be using the app hands-on to learn. Day 1: We will learn to add and delete characters, change backgrounds,add text, perform simple movements and add sounds. Day 2: We will learn to grow and shrink characters, change their speeds and perform wait for it actions. Day 3: We will work on different ways to start an event and discuss broadcasting Day 4: This will be game day and we will build a game with what we have learned so far This is a beginner level coding course and does not require any previous coding experience. It is recommended to download the Scratch Jr. app onto the learner's IPad before class begins. * For a chromebook if possible download the android version of the app from the play store as that works better.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a homeschooling mom to three kids (ages 12,10 and 6) a girl scouts troop leader and a math and science enthusiast!
I have a Bachelors in Computer Science and a Masters in Management Information System. I worked in a software engineering firm till we decided to homeschool. I love to code and I love to create games! For my coding classes, I believe in teaching the critical thinking skills to make sure my learners are able to code themselves and not just copy!
My goal would always be to make sure each of my student is able to grasp the concepts fully therefore I will always have a small class size! I believe in differentiated learning which means targeting all sorts of learners- auditory,visual and kinesthetic.
I am qualified to teach Middle School Math. My goal is to teach math for real life application. My classes are very hands-on and interactive and I like to make math fun to learn. I love challenging math and can be found spending my free time solving a complicated math puzzle.
I am fluent in Urdu as well as English.Reviews
