Create fun games and interactive programs in Python (children and teenagers)

Àpd 43.73 $ /h

Python is easier to learn and understand than other programming languages. Its instructions are simple and easily readable with a clean syntax which doesn't really involve complex coding. However simple and easy to learn, Python can be used to create the highly interactive programs.

This course aims to engage learners with little or even no previous programming experience. The programme for beginners starts with an introduction to the basic fundamentals of Python (expressions, conditionals, and functions). Then, as the course progresses, learners will be able to combine Python commands and modules like Pygame, Matplotlib, Numpy and Tkinter to implement their ideas and develop skills like computational thinking, creativity and problem solving.

The content and pace of the course is adapted to the age and needs of the learners.

Informations supplémentaires

Learners will need a laptop to practise with exercises and create their own programs.

Présentation

As a teacher specialized in programming and ICT, I provide material and resources for the development of analytical, critical, and computational thinking, while also encouraging my students to be creative. I design activities for the cultivation of interpersonal and social skills and a team-working ethos, which are essential for establishing a culture of mutual respect and cooperation. Furthermore, I aim to develop and foster a secure IT environment and an e-safe culture.

I have designed and implemented programming courses not only for young but also adult learners. Some of those courses do not require prior programming experience while some others are more advanced so that learners can choose the one best suited to their needs.

Since 2014, I have also been authorized to teach Maths in light of my mathematical background from my university studies. Therefore, in addition to my computer programming courses, I offer primary and secondary maths lessons.

My name is Ségolène (26 years old). I have a double degree from KULeuven with a Master of Business Administration (NL/EN) as well as the agrégation (Educatieve Master). I worked for 2 years in insurance and currently work at Odoo.

My mother tongue is French, but from a very young age, I was educated in Dutch, which allowed me to become perfectly bilingual. I love supporting my students and seeing them progress. I offer academic support in any subject but also to help them learn how to learn, become better organized, and gain confidence.

MY EXPERIENCE :

I helped several students to pass the CE1D exam in Dutch (written, oral, listening comprehension). In addition, I also assisted students with their homework and for various subjects at secondary level (Maths, Handel (commerce), Sciences: WO, NW...).
Finally, it is also possible for younger children to learn Dutch in a fun way (language games, educational games).

During a test carried out on the CLL site to assess my level (A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 or C2), I obtained the result C2: "The student expresses himself appropriately in n' any situation, by dominating the linguistic and cultural elements proper to a native speaker and by knowing how to distinguish shades of meaning."

Hello,
I am starting as a private English teacher because I recently had the experience of giving lessons to a 7 year old child for 6 months where I created all kinds of games and activities that I dream of reusing. He was very happy about it and so were his parents. It also greatly blossomed for me as a teacher and my deepening of the language.
I took English lessons for a month in Glasgow and developed my oral skills for 4 months in Vancouver thereafter. While staying in Brussels, I continued my advanced learning at EPFC and having knowledge with whom I speak exclusively in English, I practice daily.
For the sake of precision, and confidence with the student, I prefer to teach children, adolescents and in tutoring. I am an internship facilitator, so I am used to taking care of children of all ages and in contact with them.
Do not hesitate to contact me, I remain at your disposal for any questions or for a course.

Bonjour,

Je suis Catherine, j'ai 21 ans. J'ai eu mon CESS en 2017, et j'ai entrepris des études aux Beaux-Arts de Bruxelles (peinture) et ensuite de graphisme à la Haute Ecole Albert Jacquard. Ayant eu l'opportunité de faire grandir mon projet, j'ai laissé tombé mes études pour devenir tatoueuse.

Néanmoins, j'ai une bonne maitrise de Photoshop, voir Illustrator et InDesign.
D'un point de vue plastique, je maitrise plusieurs techniques de dessin, et j'ai une approche de l'art très intuitive pour laisser un maximum de place à l'imaginaire et au style graphique des artistes qui m'entourent. Dans le cadre d'un cours, mon but serait d'accompagner l'élève vers une meilleure maitrise de son art et de l'aider à découvrir de nouveaux artistes, points de vue, représentations,... dans l'acceptance de son niveau actuel comme part obligatoire de son processus artistique.

J'ai également de bonnes capacités en orthographe pour le français, je suis minutieuse et perfectionniste dans le travail tout en gardant la bonne humeur et le sourire (sous le masque). Pour les élèves de primaire, je peux faire tout type de suivi et d'aide aux devoirs sans distinction de matière, en ayant l'approche la plus pédagogique possible. Pour les secondaires, une discussion préalable est préférable au niveau de la matière abordée.

Le français est ma langue maternelle et j'ai également un très bon niveau en anglais, ainsi que des bases qui mériteraient d'être réactivées en néerlandais et en espagnol.

I have supported a large number of students with homework help (all branches combined) as well as with language lessons. Having also worked for several years as a school substitute, I have accumulated experience and am familiar with the requirements required in class.

Polyglot, I master French, English, German, Spanish and Italian and am able to explain the grammar, as well as to propose nice exercises to learn these languages.

I think it's important to keep a relaxed and playful atmosphere during the lessons :-)

Do not hesitate to contact me if you want more information.

My goal is to restore confidence, explain things differently when necessary, and turn challenges into real successes. I primarily prepare students for the CE1D exam. First, we work together on each skill assessed during this test. Then, I guide the student through the practice of all these skills so they can approach the exam in its entirety with confidence and method.
Regarding the price, if you have financial difficulties, do not hesitate to inform me, we will find a solution. Money has never been a problem for me, the main thing is that your child improves his level and passes his exams.
