As a dedicated educator with a passion for technology and creativity, I bring a wealth of experience and expertise to teaching Scratch coding. With a background in STEM education, I am equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to guide students through their coding journey. My hands-on experience in elementary education has allowed me to develop effective teaching strategies that cater to diverse learning styles and abilities.

Furthermore, my enthusiasm for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education drives me to continuously seek out new ways to engage and inspire students in coding and computational thinking. Whether it's through designing interactive projects, facilitating collaborative learning experiences, or providing personalized support, I am committed to empowering students to unleash their creativity and develop essential coding skills with Scratch.

With my background, expertise, and dedication to student success, I am confident in my ability to create a positive and enriching learning environment where students can thrive and excel in Scratch coding.
