My passion is to ignite creativity and problem-solving skills through the art of coding. With Scratch, your child will not only learn the fundamental concepts of programming but will also have a blast constructing games and interactive stories.

Background

Over the last 4 years, I've dedicated my time to teaching young minds the wonders of coding. My journey began as a hobbyist programmer, and quickly evolved into a career when I realized the joy and satisfaction of sharing my knowledge with children.

Through my classes, I've had the pleasure of watching many of my students transition from beginners to young game developers, bursting with their own creative ideas.

I specialize in crafting interactive coding classes and games that capture the imagination of children, making complex concepts digestible. Whether your child has never seen a line of code or they’re already building their own projects, my personalized teaching approach will help them level up their skills. From the basics of loops and conditionals to more advanced topics like cloning sprites and using custom blocks, I cover it all.
