About:

Hello! I'm Benjamin Williams, a passionate coding instructor with a mission to make learning a thrilling adventure for every child. With 9 years of experience teaching Scratch and Roblox in Coraopolis, PA, my approach combines fun, creativity, and structured learning. I believe that coding is not just about learning to program; it's about problem-solving, thinking critically, and unleashing a child's imagination.

Teaching Journey:

My teaching journey began out of a genuine desire to introduce kids to the magic of bringing ideas to life through code. Over the years, I've had the joy of witnessing numerous students transform their initial curiosity into a profound love for coding. Each lesson is designed to encourage students to explore, create, and innovate whilst gaining confidence in their skills. Watching my students develop from novices to young programmers crafting their own games and projects has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my career.

Specializations:

At the heart of my teaching are two powerful and kid-friendly platforms:

Scratch: I specialize in Scratch, where beginners can dive into the principles of coding without the complexity of text-based code. My classes focus on helping kids understand the logic of programming through playful, drag-and-drop blocks.

Roblox: For those ready to take their coding to the next level, I offer Roblox classes that combine game design and Lua scripting. Students learn how to create immersive 3D worlds and inventive gameplay mechanics that captivate players' imaginations.

Whether your child is just scratching the surface or is eagerly looking to level up their coding prowess, I'm here to guide them with patience, expertise, and an ever-enthusiastic spirit.

FAQs:

Q1: What ages do you teach?

A1: I teach children of all ages, starting from young beginners to teenagers looking to refine their skills.

Q2: Do you offer group classes or one-on-one sessions?

A2: I offer both group classes, which foster collaborative skills and teamwork, and one-on-one sessions for personalized, focused training.

Q3: Is prior experience in coding necessary?

A3: Not at all! My curriculum caters to students of all levels. I aim to make coding accessible to every child, regardless of their experience.
