About Mason Brown

Hello! My name is Mason Brown, and I am deeply passionate about igniting the spark of creativity and logic in children through the power of coding. Born and raised in Richmond, RI, I have dedicated the last 6 years to teaching Scratch programming to young minds, instilling in them the joy of creating something from nothing.

Professional Experience

Over the course of my career, I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with students at various skill levels. My journey began as an assistant in a local computer camp before I rapidly progressed to leading my own coding classes. The bulk of my experience has come from working with after-school programs, summer camps, and providing private tuition for eager young learners. It’s been an incredible ride watching kids' eyes light up as they bring their ideas to life through coding, seeing them grow not just in competence but also in confidence.

Key Expertise

My key areas of expertise lie in:

Scratch Programming Instruction: Tailoring lessons to the individual learning style and pace of each child.

Game Design Fundamentals: Guiding students through the essential steps of creating interactive games.

Problem-Solving Skills: Encouraging children to think critically and overcome challenges in their projects.

Project Development: Helping students start from a basic concept and develop fully functional Scratch projects.

Encouraging Creativity: Inspiring kids to express their individuality and creativity in a digital medium.

FAQs

Q: At what age can children begin learning Scratch with you?

A: I start teaching Scratch to kids as young as 7 years old. Scratch is designed to be accessible to younger learners, so it's a perfect starting point for any child with an interest in technology and creativity.

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

A: I offer both! Group sessions can be great for collaborative learning and social development, while one-on-one classes provide targeted instruction tailored to your child’s specific needs.

Q: What can my child expect to take away from your classes?

A: Your child will learn the fundamentals of coding, develop logical thinking skills, and have a portfolio of their own games and projects by the end of our sessions together.
