Hello there! I'm Liam Jones, your go-to Scratch coding instructor based in the picturesque town of Northfield, VT. With my passion for teaching and love for making learning an exhilarating experience, I have dedicated the past 8 years to guiding young minds through the fantastic world of coding. I take pride in transforming complex concepts into fun, interactive sessions that not only educate but also infuse a sense of accomplishment and joy in every child I mentor.
Teaching Journey:
My adventure into the realm of teaching Scratch began almost a decade ago when I noticed a lack of engaging educational resources in the field of computer programming for kids. Determined to change that, I developed a curriculum that focuses on creating an enjoyable learning environment while ensuring that each student grasps the essentials of coding. My journey has been nothing short of rewarding, with the pleasure of witnessing numerous young learners evolve into confident creators of their very own digital games and projects.
Specializations:
I specialize in making coding accessible to children of all ages and skill levels. From absolute beginners who have never seen a line of code to the more advanced young developers looking to polish their skills, my classes cater to all. I have a knack for crafting coding games that not only captivate but also subtly reinforce the coding concepts being taught. My key areas of expertise include:
Introduction to Scratch and its interface
Game design and development
Advanced Scratch programming techniques
Problem-solving and logical thinking skills
Project-based learning for practical understanding
Q: What age group do you cater to?
A: My Scratch coding classes are perfect for children aged 7 and up.
Q: How do you tailor your lessons to fit each child's needs?
A: I assess each child's current skill level and learning style during the first session, which helps me customize my approach to maximize their understanding and enjoyment.
Q: Can you help if my child has specific coding project goals?
A: Absolutely! I love helping students bring their unique ideas to life. Whether it's a school project or a personal interest, we'll work together to turn that vision into a reality.
