FAQs:

Q: What ages do you teach?

A: I primarily teach children aged 7 to 14, but I'm open to discussing classes for different age groups depending on the child's interest and readiness.

Q: How are your classes structured?

A: My classes are a blend of theory and practical application. We start with the basics of programming logic, then quickly move on to hands-on projects where students can see their code come to life.

Q: Do you offer group classes or one-on-one sessions?

A: I offer both! Group classes are great for collaborative learning and social skill development, while one-on-one sessions provide personalized guidance for your child's specific needs.
