About Lucas Smith

Hello! My name is Lucas Smith, and I'm passionate about introducing children to the wonderful world of coding. Born and raised in Bayside, WI, I recognized the importance of tech literacy for today's youth and turned my passion into teaching. With Scratch as my platform of choice, I strive to ignite a love for creating, problem-solving, and thinking computationally in every child that attends my classes.

Professional Background

With over three years of experience teaching Scratch programming, I've dedicated myself to the education and technological advancement of children in the Bayside community. My journey began as a self-taught programmer, and I've since transitioned into an experienced educator, known for inspiring young minds. Through my career, I've worked with a diverse array of students, helping them transition from novices to confident creators capable of conceiving their own unique games and projects.

Teaching Style

Learning should always be an adventure, and my teaching style reflects that belief. My Scratch coding classes are highly interactive, blending theory with an abundance of hands-on practice. I believe in a student-centered approach, where kids are encouraged to explore, experiment, and learn from their mistakes. Classes are structured around fun and engaging coding games, which not only teach the fundamentals but also foster an environment where creativity is celebrated and every idea is valued.

I prioritize individualized attention, ensuring that each student's learning needs are met, no matter their starting level. By setting incremental goals, I help children to see their progress, fueling their confidence and enthusiasm for learning more.
