About James:

Hello! I’m James Jones, your go-to tutor for diving into the exciting world of coding through Scratch and Roblox! Residing in the cozy town of Kittanning, PA, I have dedicated the past four years to igniting a passion for coding among kids. I strongly believe that learning should be a joyous journey, so I focus on transforming complex coding concepts into playful and captivating experiences. Whether your child is taking their first steps in coding or aiming to sharpen their skills, I’m here to turn their imaginative game ideas into reality, one line of code at a time!

Experience

I've spent the last four years meticulously crafting my curriculum to make coding as accessible and entertaining as possible. Throughout this time, I've:

Conducted over 800+ hours of personalized Scratch and Roblox coding classes.

Helped over 200 students create and publish their own games.

Regularly updated my teaching materials to include the latest trends and updates in Scratch and Roblox platforms.

Worked with students of diverse ages and skill levels, from beginners to more advanced young developers.

Key Strengths:

Game-Based Learning: My teaching philosophy is underpinned by the power of play. I've designed a range of coding games that not only teach fundamental concepts but also foster creativity and problem-solving skills.

Personalized Instruction: Understanding that each student is unique, I tailor my approach to fit their individual learning style, interests, and pace.

Encouraging Creativity: I encourage students to think outside the box and take ownership of their projects, which bolsters their confidence and enthusiasm for learning.

Communication Skills: Parents are always kept in the loop with regular updates on their child's progress, and students are encouraged to voice their ideas and ask questions freely.

Tech Savvy: With an ever-evolving digital landscape, I ensure I'm up-to-date with the latest tools and technologies to provide a cutting-edge learning experience.
