Tutor Location
Hello! I'm Mason Brown, your friendly neighborhood coding tutor based in Appleton, WI. With a heartfelt passion for technology and education, I have dedicated the past five years to teaching Scratch programming to children, endeavoring to make each lesson not just informative but also immensely enjoyable. I firmly believe that learning should be an adventure, especially when it comes to the creative world of coding.
Professional Experience:
Over these past five years, I have had the privilege of guiding numerous young minds through the labyrinth of Scratch's colorful blocks and logical constructs. My teaching journey began in a small community center in Appleton and has since blossomed into a full-fledged personal mission to empower kids with the ability to turn their digital dreams into reality. Whether in a classroom setting or through one-on-one tutoring sessions, I’ve worked tirelessly to ensure every student acquires the foundational knowledge and advanced skills to craft their unique coding projects.
Key Expertise:
Teaching the basics of Scratch programming to beginners
Developing curriculum for intermediate to advanced Scratch courses
Crafting customized, interactive coding games that enhance learning
Leveraging Scratch for storytelling, animation, and game design
Fostering problem-solving and critical thinking skills through coding challenges
Ensuring a supportive and fun learning environment for all students
Q: What age range do you teach?
A: My classes are primarily tailored for children aged 7 to 14 years old. However, I’m open to discussing options for students who fall slightly outside this range.
Q: How do you make coding fun?
A: I create an interactive learning atmosphere, where students can see the immediate results of their code in lively animations and games. My aim is to transform abstract coding concepts into tangible, engaging experiences that foster genuine enthusiasm.
Q: What can my child expect to achieve by learning Scratch with you?
A: Your child will gain a strong grasp of programming basics, logical reasoning skills, and the ability to create their projects from scratch (pun intended!). They'll also develop the confidence to tackle more complex coding challenges as they advance.
