Tutor Location
Hello! I'm Mia Jones, an enthusiastic and experienced Scratch coding tutor from the welcoming town of Middleburg, PA. With a passion for technology and education, I believe in empowering young minds through the adventure of coding. My journey began 7 years ago, and since then, I have dedicated myself to helping kids discover the joys of creating their own games and animations while learning to think critically and solve problems.
Teaching Journey:
Throughout my 7-year teaching career, I've had the privilege of watching numerous students grow from curious novices to confident creators. My approach to teaching is centered around making learning an enjoyable experience. I actively design and incorporate fun coding games into my lessons, which not only keeps my students engaged but also reinforces their understanding of coding concepts. The smile on a child's face when they see their creations come to life is the ultimate reward for me and drives my passion for teaching.
Specializations:
My specialization lies in guiding children through the world of Scratch. Whether your child is a beginner who needs to learn the basics or an intermediate student looking to enhance their skill set, I tailor my classes to meet their individual needs. With Scratch's visual programing language, it's fantastic to see students of all ages designing games, telling interactive stories, and executing impressive projects, all while unwittingly honing their logical thinking and problem-solving skills.
Q: What age group do you teach?
A: I primarily work with children aged 8 to 14, which is the ideal range for absorbing the principles of Scratch programming.
Q: How do you handle varying skill levels in your classes?
A: I assess each student's capabilities and provide personalized instruction. Group activities are structured so that each student contributes according to their skill level, ensuring that no one feels left behind.
Q: What do you consider the most significant outcome of your classes?
A: Beyond learning to code, my students learn to think methodically and take creative approaches to problem-solving—skills that benefit them in every aspect of life.
