Tutor Location
Hello! I’m Olivia Jones, your go-to tutor for bridging the world of fun and learning through coding. Residing in the charming town of Oregon, Wisconsin, I've dedicated the last 7 years to transforming how kids perceive and interact with technology. My passion lies in empowering young minds by teaching them how to create their own games and projects using Scratch and Roblox.
My journey in educational technology began with a desire to see children both learn and enjoy the process. Over the years, I've honed my methodology to foster an atmosphere where creativity meets logic, leading to an educational experience that is as entertaining as it is instructive.
I specialize in demystifying the complexities of coding for children. My skills lie in making abstract concepts tangible, allowing kids to grasp programming principles with ease. My expertise includes:
Proficiency in Scratch & Roblox development.
Game design principles tailored for a young audience.
Engaging storytelling through code.
Interactive lesson planning.
Problem-solving and logic development.
One-on-one mentorship and collaborative project work.
Expanding beyond just coding, I also focus on developing life skills such as critical thinking, resilience in the face of challenges, and the joy of lifelong learning.
Q1: At what age can children start learning coding with you?
A1: Kids can start learning as early as 7 years old. My programs are designed to cater to the learning pace and interests of each age group.
Q2: How do you customize your lessons for different skill levels?
A2: I assess each student's abilities and interests during our initial session and tailor the curriculum accordingly. I ensure that our projects remain challenging yet achievable, encouraging progress at every stage.
Q3: What kind of projects can students expect to create?
A3: Students can create a range of projects from simple animated stories in Scratch to more complex games in Roblox with custom scripts and characters. The level of complexity increases with the student's capability and confidence.
Q4: Do you offer group classes or only private lessons?
A4: I offer both private lessons for focused learning and group sessions to encourage collaborative skills. Both settings provide enriching experiences and are offered based on preference and suitability.
