About Amelia Williams

Hello, aspiring young coders and supportive parents! My name is Amelia Williams, and I am thrilled to share the vibrant world of coding with all of you. Located in the heart of Curwensville, PA, for the past five years, I have dedicated myself to teaching Scratch to kids, transforming complicated concepts into enjoyable experiences. With a deep-seated passion for education and a flair for creativity, I specialize in kindling the spark of programming within young minds. I believe every child can learn to code—they just need the right guide to illuminate the path.

Experience

A seasoned Scratch educator, I have spent half a decade perfecting the art of teaching programming to children. My journey began in a small local tech center, leading me to explore various teaching methodologies that I now implement to make learning a blend of fun and enrichment. My classes are designed to nurture a child's natural curiosity, allowing them to dive into the world of Scratch, creating games and interactive stories while learning essential logical and computational thinking skills.

Key Strengths

Innovative Teaching Methods: I utilize an interactive approach to keep lessons engaging and attuned to each child's learning pace.

Custom Learning Experiences: With personalized lesson plans, I ensure that every child receives the attention and guidance they need, catering to beginners and advanced students alike.

Gamified Learning: The unique games I design for my coding classes are not only exciting but also educational, promoting a hands-on experience with coding concepts.

Patience and Understanding: I recognize that each child learns differently, and I pride myself on fostering a supportive environment for growth and exploration.

Positive Atmosphere: My classroom is a place of encouragement and positive reinforcement, crucial for building confidence in young learners.

FAQs

Q: What ages do you teach?

A: I primarily teach children ages 7 to 12, but I'm happy to work with slightly younger or older students who are enthusiastic about learning Scratch.

Q: How do you structure your classes?

A: Each class starts with a brief discussion on a new concept, followed by hands-on practice where students build their own mini-projects. As they progress, they take on larger challenges, culminating in a personalized project of their own design.

Q: Do you offer group classes or just one-on-one sessions?

A: I offer both! Group classes are great for collaborative learning and social skills, while individual sessions provide targeted support.

Q: My child is an absolute beginner. Is this a problem?

A: Not at all. My curriculum is designed to cater to beginners, helping them grasp the basics before moving on to more complex projects.
