About Benjamin Smith

Welcome to a world where coding becomes a thrilling adventure for kids! I am Benjamin Smith, your child's guide on a journey through the captivating realms of Scratch and Roblox. With seven enriching years of experience teaching in Caledonia, WI, my classroom is a playground where code meets creativity. I take pride in transforming the learning process into an exciting quest filled with challenges that kids can't wait to tackle. My mission is to not only teach your child the ins and outs of coding but to ignite a lifelong passion for technology and innovation.

Background

As a dedicated coding instructor, I've spent the last seven years specializing in children's education, particularly focusing on the vital skills of computer science. I stumbled upon the power of teaching Scratch and Roblox purely by accident; what started as a hobby quickly developed into a full-blown devotion. The sparkle in a child's eyes when they bring their first sprite to life, or their triumphant cheer upon successfully navigating their Roblox obstacle course, is the fuel that drives me. With my guidance, your child will step into the role of creator, developing not just games, but also confidence, problem-solving skills, and a love for learning.

Areas of Expertise

My areas of expertise include:

Scratch: Introducing the basics of programming in a visual, block-based environment. Kids will learn to think logically, design characters, and animate stories.

Roblox: Teaching the use of Roblox Studio for creating and publishing their own games. Students will grasp game design principles and user experience techniques.

Game-Based Learning: Developing curriculum that makes learning to code as addictive as playing games. By harnessing the mechanics of play, children stay engaged and retain information better.

Problem-Solving: Fostering an environment where challenges are celebrated and perseverance is developed. I guide students to find solutions and learn from their mistakes.
