Tutor Location
Welcome to the exciting world of coding and game development for kids! My name is Lucas Smith, and for a decade, I have been sparking creativity and computational thinking among young minds in Farmers Branch, TX, through interactive and enjoyable coding classes. My mission is to demystify technology, enabling children to transform from mere game players to creative game developers.
Professional Background
With ten fruitful years teaching Scratch and Roblox, I have refined a method that makes learning not just educational but incredibly entertaining. I take pride in my dedication to teaching coding, which I believe is an essential skill for the future. My experience ranges from one-on-one sessions to small group classes, ensuring personalized attention and the ability to cater to each child's learning pace. These years of commitment to teaching have garnered me recognition in the local community, reflected in the positive reviews from those who have attended my sessions.
Teaching Style
I prioritize making coding accessible and thrilling. Learning is facilitated through a hands-on approach - think less lecture, more doing. In my classes, students jump straight into constructing their own games and projects, with guided instruction ensuring they grasp the fundamental concepts of coding. I encourage students to think creatively, solve problems systematically, and work collaboratively, mirroring real-world coding scenarios. Furthermore, I adapt to each child's learning style, aiming to meet their individual needs while fostering a supportive and motivating environment.
What ages do you teach?
My coding classes are tailored for children aged 7 and up, catering to various skill levels, from beginners to more advanced young coders.
How do you customize your curriculum for different skill levels?
I assess each student’s capabilities and interests, then tailor the lessons to challenge them appropriately while ensuring they're achieving tangible progress.
What can my child expect to learn in your Scratch and Roblox classes?
Students will learn the basics of programming logic, game design, and project development, culminating in the creation of their own unique games and projects.
How do I track my child's progress?
I provide regular updates and showcase the projects and games your child develops, allowing you to witness their growth and the skills they’ve acquired.
