Hello future coders and parents! My name is Liam Williams. With a spark of creativity and a passion for teaching, I've dedicated the past three years to introducing the world of programming to young minds through Scratch. As the go-to source for coding fun in Chantilly, VA, my aim is to unlock your child's potential by making coding not just educational, but also irresistibly engaging. With a personalized touch in every lesson, my hope is to inspire the next generation of game creators, animators, and innovative thinkers.
Experience
Starting out as a computer science enthusiast, I quickly identified my calling in teaching when I began helping my younger cousins navigate Scratch's enchanting universe. Since then, I have:
Conducted 300+ coding classes.
Tailored learning experiences for over 150 students, ages 7 to 14.
Created and shared 50+ custom coding games and interactive sessions.
Facilitated workshops at local schools to raise programming awareness.
Key Strengths
Creative Lesson Planning: My classes are brimming with original content to ensure no two lessons are the same.
Patience & Personalization: I cater to all skill levels, adapting to each student's pace.
Problem-Solving Mindset: My approach encourages kids to think critically and overcome coding hurdles with confidence.
Continuous Learning: I frequently update my knowledge base with the latest Scratch updates and coding trends.
Parental Involvement: I keep parents in the loop and provide tools for them to support their children's learning journey.
What age groups do you teach?
I specialize in teaching kids between the ages of 7 and 14.
How does Scratch prepare my child for the future?
Scratch introduces fundamental programming concepts in a visual format that cultivates logical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity—essential skills for any future career.
Do you offer group classes or one-on-one sessions?
I offer both! Group sessions foster collaboration, while one-on-one classes provide targeted learning. The choice depends on your child's comfort and learning preference.
Can my child learn at their own pace?
Absolutely! I aim to provide a stress-free learning environment where your child can learn progressively and confidently.
