About Benjamin Smith

Welcome to a world where coding meets creativity! My name is Benjamin and I am your key to unlocking the amazing potential of your child in the realm of coding. With a passion for teaching Scratch, I have dedicated the past 6 years to transforming kids into young coding enthusiasts in Greendale, WI. I believe that every child has the capacity to think like a programmer, and my mission is to make that journey fun, interactive, and highly rewarding.

Professional Background

Over the last 6 years, I have immersed myself deeply in the art of teaching coding to kids. Not only have I helped young minds grasp the basics of Scratch, but I've also led them to conquer more advanced projects. My experience is not just limited to classroom settings; I've designed numerous coding games aimed at strengthening the logical and problem-solving skills vital for programming. This balance of education and interactive gaming has earned me the reputation of being one of the top tutors in Greendale, as reflected by my impressive 4.7-star average rating from 26 glowing reviews.

Teaching Style

My teaching style is all about 'learning by doing.' Each lesson in Scratch is structured around a core concept, followed by immediately applying that knowledge to create something exciting. By turning lessons into challenges and games, I make sure that students remain engaged and motivated. I cater to all skill levels, tailoring my approach to meet the needs of each learner. Whether your child is coding their first sprite, or they're ready to script complex interactions in their games, my style adapts to keep education both accessible and stimulating.
