Experience
Over the past 7 years, I have dedicated myself to teaching Scratch to kids of various ages and proficiency levels. During this time, I have honed my approach to suit different learning styles, ensuring that each of my students receives personalized attention and guidance. My classes range from beginner-friendly introductions to coding fundamentals to more sophisticated game and project development sessions for the advanced learners.
Throughout my career, I've worked with over a hundred students, many of whom have gone on to showcase their projects in school fairs and local coding competitions. My experience as a tutor has been enriched by continuous learning and adaptation, ensuring that my teaching methods are always up-to-date and effective.
