James Smith Scratch and Roblox Tutor in River Falls, WI

About:

Hello! My name is James Smith, and I am deeply passionate about teaching young minds the exciting world of coding through Scratch and Roblox. Residing in River Falls, WI, for over two years, I have dedicated myself to developing a learning environment where creativity and fun intersect with technology education. My goal is to inspire children by showing them how they can bring their imagination to life with code.

Experience:

I have worked for two fruitful years as a coding tutor, focusing on Scratch and Roblox, two platforms that are perfect for introducing kids to the fundamentals of programming and game design. During this period, I have honed my skills in teaching, curriculum development, and student engagement. My experience has allowed me to understand the unique learning curves that each child can have and how to adapt to their individual needs.

Expertise:

My expertise lies in creating an interactive learning experience tailored to children. With Scratch, students learn the basics of coding through visual blocks, making it an excellent stepping stone into the world of programming. Roblox, on the other hand, offers an advanced playground where students can create their games and explore their potential as future game developers. My approach is to gently guide each student through the stages of game creation, from idea development to the final touches of game publishing.
