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

Van 41 $ /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.

Extra informatie

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

Over

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.

Games, animations and interactive stories with Scratch (children and teenagers)

41 $ /h

Are you dreaming of creating your own games, animations or interactive stories? This course aims to enagage learners regardless of their programming experience.

The course for beginners starts with a description of the interface and how you can import or create various backgrounds or objects. An introduction to basic command blocks follows, and as the course progresses, learners are given many opportunities to be creative, practise analytical and critical thinking, and combine various command blocks to add functionality to their programs.

The course also aims to foster effective communication, as learners have the opportunity to share their creations on Scratch community, receive feedback and exchange ideas with other members.

This course is suitable for children and teenagers.

Programming is a handy skill that any person can pick up at any rate and age. It allows us to think in abstract terms writing concise instructions to a computer to perform a certain task: be it a basic addition to more advanced software engineering. As a graduate of the Free University Brussels, I put my skills into good use to teach people about programming in order to give them the required insights to succeed in the domain. My skill set is in Python, Java and Javascript with a good understanding in C.

Programming in Python (primary to university education) taught by master HIR at the KUL. Programming experience as a Civil Computer Science Engineer. HIR, TEW and Bio-IRs have already been successfully assisted.

ABOUT THIS LESSON:
I offer tutoring in Python programming and mathematics for university and college students. I also support secondary school and primary school students in all scientific subjects.

My focus is on the student being able to find the solution independently, step by step, and I help where necessary by providing mini-tips to help them reach the next step. This makes my method much more personalized than standard classroom teaching.

For me, all learning starts with understanding each step and I have several methods/tools to present and clarify this. If it is difficult to understand, I explain it in a different way, in my own words, so that the material is certainly understood, as this is the first step towards fully mastering the material in the subjects I teach.

This is followed by learning to devise and write code yourself, but if this is too difficult to write a complete solution in an empty program, I have a diagram/step-by-step plan and extra tips and tricks to work towards the final solution in a much more structured way.

If you have taken lessons with me or are still taking them, you can always send me questions via chat between lessons and I will quickly help you as best as possible so that you can continue practicing on yourself. I just do this during one of my own study breaks and I enjoy doing it.

ABOUT NICK:
I am a 22-year-old master's student in Commercial Engineering at KU Leuven. I started tutoring my sister, nephews, nieces and friends and I get a lot of satisfaction from improving and helping others when they come to me for help.

Because I have been tutoring consistently for several years, I have the right resources to present learning material in an understandable way and to strengthen the motivation, concentration and independent study of my students.

I also studied civil engineering for 2 years and passed the Python programming subject in that course with flying colors. I stopped doing this because the rest of the course did not interest me enough. In commercial engineering I also had part of a Python course that was much easier and for which I therefore achieved a great distinction.

I have already successfully helped quite a few Commercial Engineers, TEWs and Bio-Engineers, but other courses have also been positive about my help. Other directions can certainly contact me as well. High school students are of course also in the right place with me.

I don't give up until I'm sure a student understands the material well enough and I see them making progress. By always appearing enthusiastic, I ensure that together we do not let the drudgery of difficult subjects get any further than the school desks.

I am flexible in making appointments and am open to every student. I provide tutoring at your home (I can travel by car), at my home (Kampenhout), in my student room (Leuven) or online.

If you are interested, do not hesitate to contact me so that we can discuss the practical matters in more depth immediately. Together we can draw up a plan and work lesson by lesson to achieve your personal academic goals or those of your child.

The world around us is becoming increasingly digital, and artificial intelligence is playing a growing role in our everyday lives. Yet, it is not always easy to understand how these technologies work or how to use them effectively.

I have a degree in Business Engineering and Information Systems and currently work as a Data Scientist. I am also interested in application development, programming, and artificial intelligence more broadly. Through my courses, I would like to share my knowledge in a simple, practical, and accessible way, adapted to each learner.

The lessons are fully personalized according to your level, goals, and interests. For example, we can:
- introduce a child or teenager to programming;
- learn the basics of programming or explore more advanced concepts;
- discover artificial intelligence and understand how it works;
- learn how to use tools such as ChatGPT or Claude effectively;
- or simply become more comfortable using computers, smartphones, and digital tools.

No prior knowledge is required. Whether you are a complete beginner, already comfortable with technology, or simply curious to learn more, we can create a course together that matches what you want to learn, at your own pace.
