Tutor Location
Welcome to the dynamic world of coding for kids, brought to life by the spirited and innovative Sophia Brown. With a heart for education and a passion for technology, I've dedicated the last four years to empowering the young minds of Homestead, PA with the magic of coding through Scratch and Roblox. I believe that learning should not only be effective but also irresistibly fun; hence, my approach is to transform the complexity of programming into captivating and interactive coding games that delight and educate simultaneously.
Background
A Homestead local, my journey into the realm of teaching began with a fascination for the boundless creative potential that coding holds. After obtaining my degree in Computer Science, I decided to channel my expertise and enthusiasm into nurturing young talent. Since then, it's been an adventure filled with "aha-moments" and proud displays of my students' ingenuity. Beyond teaching, I continuously hone my skills and stay updated with the latest educational strategies in coding to ensure my lessons are top-notch and aligned with the ever-evolving technology landscape.
Expertise
Specializing in Scratch and Roblox, I'm adept at tailor-making the curriculum to fit each learner's pace, ensuring that whether your child is taking their first steps into programming or already on the path to becoming a prodigy, the education they receive is personalized and thorough. With Scratch, I focus on fundamental programming concepts, fostering creativity and logical thinking through engaging visual blocks of code. Advancing to Roblox, my students not only enjoy the thrill of game creation but also develop an understanding of Lua scripting language, giving them a solid foundation to explore more complex coding environments in the future.
What ages do you teach?
I welcome all young learners, typically ranging from 7 to 15 years old, for Scratch and Roblox classes.
How are your classes structured?
Classes are a blend of theory and hands-on practice, ensuring students grasp concepts and immediately apply them to create tangible projects and games.
Do you offer group and private sessions?
Yes, I offer both. Group sessions are great for collaborative learning and social interaction, while private sessions are ideal for personalized, focused instruction.
What do students need for your class?
A computer with internet access, an eagerness to learn, and a free Scratch account. For Roblox, a free Roblox Studio download is required.
How can parents track their child's progress?
I provide regular updates, along with showcasing student projects, to ensure parents are engaged in their child's learning journey.
