Scratch (programming language and creation of video games for children)

From 22 £ /h

Scratch is a visual programming language created by MIT and oriented to facilitate its learning intuitively through blocks. And this means? That instead of writing code we will have different pieces as if it were a puzzle and we will fit them to develop the different orders until we have our project, which could be perfectly a video game.

Learning Scratch the student will develop and improve his critical thinking and understanding, his creativity, and facilitate his systemic thinking. All this will help you improve your school performance.

Extra information

To learn programming and create your own video games you will only need a computer with an operating system like Windows 10+ and eager to learn.

About Me

I am a person whose vocation is teaching and creativity. Through learning the language of programming I try to encourage as much as possible the creativity of the student as I firmly believe that they learn best when they are motivated and support and use their imagination and creativity encourages their ability to develop their programming. At the same time it improves their self-esteem and they acquire security and determination in their decisions.

Education

I graduated in Fine Arts from the Complutense University of Madrid and I have continued training in different fields related to the creative and computer world such as having studied Web Development at Trazos School and Educational Robotics (Rockbotic).

Experience / Qualifications

I have been teaching robotics in primary school in different schools of the Community of Madrid for almost three years and working as a graphic designer since 2014.

I help children with their homework, as well as helping them study the subjects that cost them the most.
I believe that education must be close and children must be encouraged to learn and motivated in order to achieve their goals and be eager for learning.

I am a certified professor, I propose an individualized pedagogy, and I help with exam preparation.
My goal is to advance the student without overloading him. I give homework after each lesson and periodically provide progress reports.

My academic background is Civil Engineering and my level of English is C1. I give school support for children and I teach classes in all primary and ESO subjects (helps the study habit).
In the case of needing English support classes, you could give them in English and thus promote understanding and pronunciation. I have a medium level of French, so I could also give support in this matter.
In addition, I have an advanced level of office automation (EXCEL, Word, PowerPoint) and an official typing degree, being able to help or teach these subjects from 0.
I have given private classes before and at the University. The price will depend on the level of the classes, the subject and the location, and in terms of schedules everything is to fit according to need and availability, so with any questions or queries contact me without obligation.
Greetings.

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.

Hello! You will surely think that learning to use many computer programs or mobile applications is impossible and many of those who ask you for help do not have patience with you. I can guide and teach you how to use the internet, WhatsApp and get around the computer faster and easier. Additionally, if you want to write documents, do accounts on electronic spreadsheets or make presentations with interactions of your photos and trips, I can help you. I am passionate about you learning and if that requires patience and understanding, then we do it, I will help you.

I offer private computer and programming classes from basic to intermediate-high level, including the possibility of learning programming from scratch, without the need for previous knowledge. My specialties include:

✔ Python – From fundamentals to advanced development and automation.
✔ Web development – HTML, CSS, JavaScript, modern frameworks.
✔ Mobile programming – Android and iOS applications.
✔ Databases and SQL – Design, optimization and advanced queries.
✔ Good practices and methodologies – Agile development, design patterns and software architecture.

I am a professional with more than 8 years of experience in software development, having worked both in Spain and abroad, including experience at CERN. I have a Higher Degree in Multiplatform Application Development, a degree in Software Engineering and a Master's Degree in Big Data.

Classes can be taught in Spanish or English and can be held online, at my home, or I can travel to the student's location and preference. My approach is practical, combining theory with real exercises to ensure a better understanding and application of knowledge.

With over seven years of experience in teaching Computer Science & Information Technology (ICT), I have developed a strong expertise in delivering high-quality education across multiple internationally recognized curricula, including Cambridge IGCSE, GCSE, A-Levels, O-Levels, and Checkpoint.

Hi! I’m Wahagn, a qualified international school teacher with 4+ years teaching Computer Science at IGCSE, A-Level, and IB DP levels. I hold a BSc and MSc in Computer Science from Leiden University and have worked in international schools across Europe. I specialize in helping students understand programming concepts, prepare for exams, and develop problem-solving skills. My lessons are personalized, practical, and focused on student success.

This class is a high-impact, results-focused program designed for students preparing for the Cambridge IGCSE Information and Communication Technology and/or the Computer Science examinations.

The core objective is to maximise your grade potential by mastering both the theoretical concepts and the specific practical skills required by the Cambridge exam structure.

🌟 Why Choose This Class?
Examining Body Expert: I have extensive experience working with the Cambridge International examining body, having taught and assessed this exact syllabus in international schools for at least seven years.

Mark Scheme Insights: You will receive coaching that goes beyond the textbook. Learn how to deconstruct command words, structure your answers to meet mark scheme criteria, and understand the subtle differences between the exam papers.

Practical Skills Specialization: We focus heavily on the common software applications and problem-solving scenarios (Spreadsheets, Databases, Web Authoring, etc.) that frequently appear in the practical exam for IGCSE Information and Communication Technology.

I offer private computer and programming lessons from basic to upper-intermediate level:

✔ Python – The easiest language to learn if you are a beginner, and in high demand.
✔ C – Learn the father of them all, memory management, arrays, compilation, and very close to the machine.
✔ Git – The most important thing in teamwork.
✔ ML Statistics – Understanding the process of training models to see predictions.
✔ Databases and SQL – Design, optimization and advanced queries.

I am a professional with more than 5 years of experience in IT.
