About:

Hello! I’m Liam Jones, your friendly neighborhood Scratch coding mentor from Surgoinsville, TN. With a passion for technology and education, I have dedicated the last six years to teaching children the wonderful world of coding. My goal is to unlock the creative potential in every child, making learning not just effective but a whole lot of fun!

Teaching Journey:

My journey as an educator began after realizing the tremendous impact that coding could have on kids’ critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Over the years, I've refined a teaching approach that is both dynamic and student-centric. I thrive on seeing the spark of understanding in a child's eyes, and nothing makes me happier than witnessing my students bring their ideas to life through Scratch. It's been an absolute privilege to guide hundreds of children on their coding adventures, and I look forward to many more years of inspiring young minds.

Specializations:

At the heart of my teaching is Scratch, a versatile platform that makes coding accessible and exciting for kids. My specialized programs cater to various skill levels:

Beginners: For kids who are just stepping into the world of coding, I have a structured curriculum that introduces the basics of Scratch through interactive activities.

Intermediate: For students who have the basics down and are ready to dive deeper, I offer courses that challenge their skills and encourage them to create more complex projects.

Advanced: For the coding whizzes looking to expand their horizons, I provide guidance on advanced Scratch concepts and game development techniques.

FAQs:

Q: What age group do you teach?

A: My classes are primarily designed for children aged 7-14 years. However, I'm open to working with kids outside this range who demonstrate a keen interest in learning Scratch.

Q: How do you make coding classes fun?

A: I create engaging coding games and interactive learning experiences that make each lesson enjoyable. I believe that when kids are having fun, they're more likely to retain information and stay motivated.
