About Emma Smith

Welcome! I am Emma Smith, your enthusiastic and dedicated coding tutor specializing in Scratch and Roblox instruction for kids in Centreville, VA.

My teaching philosophy is grounded in the belief that every child can become a creator, not just a consumer, of technology. Through my classes, your child will not only acquire essential coding skills but also develop problem-solving abilities and creative thinking.

Expertise

My expertise lies in making coding accessible and enjoyable for children. The curriculums for both Scratch and Roblox have been carefully crafted to energize young minds and introduce them to the fundamentals of coding in a playful and interactive manner.

Scratch: I teach students how to create animations, games, and interactive stories from the ground up. These lessons focus on understanding the basics of programming logic, such as loops, conditions, and variables.

Roblox: For those ready to take their skills to the next level, my Roblox courses delve into game design, world-building, and Lua scripting. Students learn how to craft their worlds and games, share them with the Roblox community, and even delve into the monetization aspects.
