About Lucas Jones

Welcome! My name is Lucas Jones, and I am a passionate coding instructor based in Jamestown, RI. With a zest for education and technology, I have dedicated myself to teaching children the fundamentals of programming and game design using Scratch and Roblox. My goal is to ignite a love for coding in children by making each lesson entertaining and interactive. I believe in nurturing young minds to think creatively and to solve problems methodically, skills they will carry forward into their future endeavors.

Experience

I have been professionally teaching coding for the last two years, with a specific focus on Scratch and Roblox platforms. In that time, I have worked with numerous students, helping them transition from beginners to confident young programmers who can build their own games and projects. My classes are structured to provide a robust understanding of coding concepts while also allowing for plenty of hands-on practice.

Expertise

My expertise lies in two principal areas: Scratch and Roblox programming. Scratch is an excellent platform for introducing students to the world of coding because of its visual block-based programming language, which is easy for children to grasp. On the other hand, Roblox is a step up and allows students to craft more complex games and engage with a scripting language, Lua, which offers a more in-depth programming experience. I stay updated with the latest teaching techniques and platform updates to ensure I deliver the most relevant and exciting programming knowledge to my students.
