About James Smith

Welcome to the vibrant world of coding where creativity meets technology! I am James Smith, your dedicated tutor with a passion for empowering kids through the art of programming. For the past 8 years, my mission has been to make learning not just educational, but downright exciting. My classes in Johnston, RI, are a place where your child can unleash their imagination, designing their own worlds through Scratch and Roblox.

Background

Since diving into the realm of coding education nearly a decade ago, I've learned that every child has a unique potential waiting to be unlocked through code. My journey began with a simple desire to combine my love for technology with interactive teaching. The outcome? A robust tutoring experience that supports children at different stages of their coding adventure, enabling them to craft stories and games that reflect their individuality.

Expertise

My expertise lies in guiding young minds through the foundational principles of coding using Scratch, a versatile platform perfect for beginners to get their feet wet in programming logic. As they advance, we switch gears to Roblox, where the possibilities are only limited by imagination. In our sessions, students master how to:

Think logically and solve problems computationally.

Develop interactive stories, animations, and games in Scratch.

Design, code, and publish their own games in Roblox, learning Lua scripting along the way.

Collaborate with peers, share projects, and provide constructive feedback.
