Professional Experience:
With nearly a decade of experience in the educational field, I specialize in teaching Scratch, a kid-friendly programming language that makes learning code as easy as connecting building blocks. I've designed a wide array of coding classes that cater to various skill levels — from beginner coders who are just getting introduced to the basics, to advanced students eager to take their coding projects to new heights. My individualized approach ensures that every child receives the attention and guidance they need to succeed.

Educational Game Development: Adept at designing interactive coding games that not only entertain but also educate, enhancing the children's computational thinking and creativity.
Tailored Instruction: Skilled in adapting teaching methods based on the unique learning style of each child, thereby maximizing their understanding and retention of coding concepts.
Project Guidance: Experienced in mentoring students through the completion of their own coding projects, from initial brainstorming to final presentation.
