About your tutor
With 4 years of tutoring experience, I specialize in teaching coding to students of all ages, from school children to college students. My passion lies in making coding fun, accessible, and engaging. I focus on helping students develop problem-solving skills through hands-on learning, using real-world projects and interactive coding challenges. My teaching style is highly adaptable, allowing me to cater to each students individual learning style and pace. I use a mix of games, projects, and real-life examples to make programming concepts come to life. I emphasize creativity and critical thinking, encouraging students to build their own projects—whether it’s a simple game, app, or website. I also guide students in developing key skills such as logic, algorithmic thinking, and debugging, which are crucial in coding and problem-solving. Besides coding, I teach related subjects like web development, app development, and computer science fundamentals. My goal is not just to teach students how to code, but to inspire them to think like programmers and solve problems in creative ways. Whether youre a beginner or looking to enhance your skills, I’m here to guide you on your coding journey!

Teaching methodology
My teaching methodology for Coding for Kids revolves around real-life examples and case studies, creativity, compassion, flexibility, and integrity. I believe coding should be fun and relevant, so I incorporate real-life examples to show how coding powers the world around us, from video games to apps. By encouraging creativity, I allow students to work on projects that interest them, which helps them stay engaged and excited about learning. I approach every student with compassion, understanding that each one has their own learning pace and style. I offer a flexible teaching style, adapting my lessons to meet individual needs, ensuring that every student feels confident and supported. Integrity is central to my teaching—instilling the value of writing clean, efficient code and following best practices. In addition to coding, I can also teach computer science basics, app development, and web development. My goal is not just to teach coding, but to inspire students to think critically, problem-solve creatively, and gain confidence in their abilities.
