Programming for Kids with Python, C# or C++ (in English)

From 34 $ /h

Programming for Kids is a course targeted for kids aged 8-16 who want to explore the world of computer programming and learn in a fun, visual way. Suitable for both complete beginners and kids who have some prior knowledge from school.
The course can be taught with either Python, C#, or C++, depending on the kid's needs. The topics, projects and homework will be similar regardless of the programming language chosen, and they will be tailored to the kid's age and level. To keep the process engaging for the kid, there will be fun, visual projects like creating a simple game, and all fundamental concepts will be taught in that context. The general structure of the course is as follows:

1. What is programming?
2. Variables
3. if, else
4. Arrays
5. /// Exercise / Project
6. Loops: for, while
7. Strings
8. Functions
9. /// Exercise / Project

--- Part 2: Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)

Python is the most in-demand programming language in the world right now — and one of the easiest to learn with the right guidance.
Whether you've never written a line of code or you're a student who needs to pass a programming course, this is a practical, no-fluff introduction that gets you writing real code from session one.
What we can cover depending on your goals:

Python fundamentals: variables, loops, functions, data structures
- Object-oriented programming (OOP)
- Data manipulation with pandas and NumPy
- Introduction to machine learning with scikit-learn
- Database management with SQL
- C and Java upon request
- MATLAB and R available for engineering/science students

Why learn with me?
I'm not a student teaching on the side — I'm a professional engineer who uses Python daily for data analysis, modeling, and automation. I know exactly which concepts matter in the real world and which ones you can skip for now.
Sessions are 100% personalized: I adapt the pace, the examples, and the exercises to your background and your goal — whether that's passing your university exam, building a project, or landing a job.
