Understand the basics of programming logic
Develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills
Foster creativity and innovation
Work collaboratively on shared projects
Build confidence in their technical abilities

Absolutely! I specialize in teaching beginners and love introducing new learners to the joys of coding.
What can parents expect from your lessons?
Parents can expect their children to be engaged, challenged, and proud of their accomplishments. I focus on creating a supportive learning environment where making mistakes is seen as a valuable part of the learning process.
