Benjamin Smith Scratch and Roblox Coding Tutor in Canyon, TX

Tutor Location

About

My name is Benjamin Smith, and I am a dedicated and enthusiastic coding instructor specializing in Scratch and Roblox, based in Canyon, TX. With a passion for making education enjoyable, I focus on teaching coding to kids through interactive classes that emphasize creativity and engagement. My aim is not only to impart technical skills but to inspire a lifelong love and understanding of technology and game development in my students.

Experience

For the past three years, I have been working with young learners to help them discover the joys of coding and game creation. Throughout this time, I have developed and refined a curriculum that caters to various skill levels. From beginners who are just getting their feet wet in the world of programming to intermediate students who are ready to take their coding skills to the next level, I offer tailored guidance to help each child achieve their potential.

Expertise

My expertise lies in Scratch and Roblox, two platforms that are ideal for introducing children to the concepts of coding and game design. Scratch, with its visual programming language, allows students to grasp the basics without the intimidation of complex syntax. Roblox, on the other hand, opens a doorway to more advanced possibilities, including game development and scriptwriting with Lua.

Scratch: Creation of interactive stories, games, and animations

Roblox: Game design, world-building, and Lua scripting

Curriculum Development: Age-appropriate challenges and progression

Student Engagement: Incorporating elements of play to maintain a fun learning environment
