About

Hello! My name is Liam Jones, and I am passionate about nurturing young minds through the exciting world of coding. With almost a decade of experience, I have dedicated myself to teaching Scratch programming in Mosinee, WI. My Core philosophy revolves around the belief that learning should be an adventure filled with joy and curiosity, especially when it comes to technology. My motto, "Code, Create, and Celebrate," drives every lesson as we embark on a journey through the realms of digital creation.

Professional Background

With 9 years of hands-on teaching experience under my belt, I have been privileged to witness numerous students' growth from curious learners to confident creators. I am well-versed in Scratch's kid-friendly interface, and my efforts have earned me the reputation of being one of the top tutors in the area. The 28 reviews with an average rating of 4.3 stars attest to my effectiveness and commitment. Holding a mix of formal education in computer science and practical teaching experience, I aim to deliver lessons that are not only informative but also inspiring.

Teaching Style

My teaching style is dynamic and student-centered, focusing on the unique learning pace and interests of each child. I specialize in converting complex coding concepts into digestible, interactive sessions. By integrating gamified learning and hands-on projects, I help students grasp abstract ideas through tangible experiences. In my classes, mistakes are celebrated as stepping stones to mastery, and creativity is always at the forefront. I encourage students to think outside the code editor and bring their wildest game ideas to life through Scratch.
