About Isabella Johnson

Hello, bright coders and future innovators! I’m Isabella Johnson, your enthusiastic guide to the incredible world of Scratch programming. Based in the vibrant town of Ambridge, PA, I have dedicated the past three years to transforming the daunting task of learning to code into a delightful adventure for kids.

As a devoted educator with a passion for technology and creativity, I believe that every child deserves the chance to uncover the joys of coding in a way that resonates with their innate curiosity and playful spirit. With Scratch, we don’t just write code – we create, we imagine, and we bring dreams to life!

Experience

Over the last three years, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching the wonders of Scratch to a delightful array of young minds. My journey began as a hobby, teaching coding basics to my relatives and neighborhood kids. Seeing their eyes light up with understanding inspired me to take my passion professional.

I've conducted:

Over 150 group sessions in Scratch programming for ages 7-14.

Customized one-on-one classes for more personalized learning experiences.

Summer coding camps focused on game creation and problem-solving.

Workshops for other educators to incorporate coding into their classrooms.

Personalized Curriculum: Recognizing that each child is unique, I offer tailored lesson plans that align with their individual pace and interests.

Strong Communication: I maintain open lines of communication with both students and parents, ensuring that everyone is aligned on the child's progress and needs.

Patience and Encouragement: Patience is my forte, and I work tirelessly to create a supportive environment where children feel comfortable making mistakes and learning from them.

Community Building: I thrive on building a community where learners can share their projects, exchange ideas, and celebrate their victories, no matter how small.
