Most kids think coding is for "smart kids" or "future programmers."
It's not. Coding is how real people solve real problems.
In this class, we skip the theory. Your child creates real things.

What they'll do:
✓ Build real projects in Scratch: a working game, an interactive animation, a story they coded
✓ Program virtual robots: solve real-world challenges (navigate a maze, automate a task, build a system)
✓ Create in Minecraft Education: design worlds, automate constructions, solve logic problems
✓ Experiment with different languages: not just learn "the right way," but understand that there are many ways to think about a problem
✓ Collaborate and share: work with other kids, get feedback, improve their work
✓ Develop logical thinking: not just for coding, but for anything: solving math problems, science challenges, real-world situations

Why this is different:
We don't teach syntax. We teach how programmers think.
Most children's coding courses say "here's the code, copy it." We teach "what problem are we trying to solve? How could we break it into steps? What options do we have?"
When your child learns to think like a programmer, they can learn any language afterward.

What they take home:
A portfolio of 3–4 completed, working projects. The ability to say "I built this." And the deep understanding that code is a tool to make real things happen.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Flexible pace, no prior experience needed
For curious 8-12 year olds who want to build.

Python is one of the best, if not the best, language to start learning programming. It is also one of the most widely used languages today, especially in cutting-edge areas such as machine learning.

This popularity means that Python is constantly evolving. It offers a wide range of tools and libraries, which are free and very varied.

As an aeronautical engineer, I like to share my knowledge and derive satisfaction from it by teaching and motivating others.

I'm used to working with people of different ages. I believe in the importance of segmenting learning, visualizing progress, setting concrete goals and practicing regularly.

Beyond these general principles, there is no magic rule or method. Some approaches work with some students but not with others. Adaptation to individual needs is therefore the main objective of private lessons. So I will do my best to find what motivates and helps my student.

Are you a university student, engineer, or professional who needs to actually use data — not just learn theory about it?
This course is built around real problems and real code. We skip the textbook formulas and go straight to applying statistics and data science the way professionals do: with Python (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, matplotlib) and R (RStudio).
What we cover, adapted to your level and goals:
- Descriptive and inferential statistics (the ones that actually matter)
- Data cleaning, exploration, and visualization
- Regression, classification, and intro to machine learning
- Time series and forecasting basics
- R for statistical analysis and academic research

Who this is for:
- University students in statistics, economics, engineering, or biology
- Professionals wanting to move into data analysis or data science
- Researchers who need to process and present data properly

I use Python and R professionally as a working engineer — everything I teach comes from real application, not just academic exercises.

* This digital training aims to introduce you to the Scratch tool and through the game world, and gradually, to discover programming concepts such as loops, conditions or variables. It is aimed at anyone who is new to Scratch and who wants to create games and animations.

* Learning programming will allow students to develop their skills and will certainly allow them to meet the expectations of the future working world and emerging careers.

* In addition, learning programming allows the development of algebraic, algorithmic and computational thinking. Programming also helps to improve and develop students' sequencing ability, as well as their communication skills. Thus, there are several advantages to teaching programming, but the important thing is to remember that this learning teaches students that digital is not only for entertainment, but that it is possible to become creators. active and creative content.

These courses are part of a structured and progressive training in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) with JavaScript, designed for beginner or intermediate developers who want to understand in depth how the language works, write clearer, more maintainable code and prepare themselves calmly for modern frameworks like React ⚛️.

Object-Oriented Programming is often perceived as complex or abstract.

My goal is simple: to make it logical, concrete, and immediately applicable.

🎯 Training Objectives

Upon completion of this training, you will be able to:

Understanding what Object-Oriented Programming really is (and when to use it)
Create and manipulate objects in JavaScript in a clean and efficient way
Use ES6 classes, constructors, and methods with confidence
Mastering this, the prototype, and the instantiation logic
Apply encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism without confusion
Avoiding common mistakes made by OOP beginners
Structure your JavaScript code like a professional developer

📖 Training Plan – Object-Oriented Programming in JavaScript
1. Introduction to Object-Oriented Programming 🧠
Understanding the concept, objectives and benefits of OOP.
2. Procedural Programming vs. OOP
Why unstructured code quickly becomes unmanageable.
3. Objects in JavaScript
Properties, methods and representation of the real world.
4. The keyword this
Understanding the execution context (often poorly understood).
5. Limitations of simple objects
Why duplicating code is a bad idea.
6. Constructive functions
Create multiple objects from the same model.
7. The keyword new
What it's actually doing under the hood.
8. The prototype
Sharing methods and memory optimization.
9. ES6 Classes
Modern syntax and best practices.
10. The builder
Proper initialization of objects.
11. Data Encapsulation

At the end of the training, you will not only know how to write a JavaScript class.
You will know:

1- Why does it exist?
2- When to use it
3- and when not to use it

You will leave with:
a solid understanding of OOP
a cleaner and more professional code
an ideal foundation for learning React, Node.js or any other modern framework

I teach machine learning, AI and Python online to university students, postgraduates, career changers and serious beginners across the UK and Europe. Lessons are in English.

I hold an MSc in Electronics and Electrical Engineering with Distinction and I teach as a Visiting Lecturer on a Master's level module covering data analytics, machine learning and generative AI at a UK university. I also have two accepted international conference papers on deep learning for image classification. I set and mark postgraduate assignments myself, so I know where marks are won and lost on this kind of work.

Who this is for

Undergraduates and postgraduates on AI, ML, data science or computer science modules at any European university. Final year, Master's and thesis students working on a machine learning project. IB and A Level students moving into computing or engineering. Professionals retraining for data roles. Complete beginners who want to learn Python properly rather than copying it from videos.

I work with students on UK, IB and continental European programmes. I have tutored engineering students in Germany and international school students across several countries, so an unfamiliar syllabus or a module taught in a different structure is not a problem. Send me the material and I will work from it.

What we cover

Python for data science with NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib and scikit-learn. Deep learning using TensorFlow and Keras. Core theory including regression, classification, clustering, decision trees, random forests, neural networks and CNNs, together with the linear algebra, calculus and statistics underneath them. Computer vision and image classification, which is my published research area. Model evaluation, overfitting and hyperparameter tuning. Writing machine learning work up to academic standard, covering methodology, results and critical evaluation.

How lessons work

Send me your module handbook, assignment brief, thesis spec or the code that will not run, and I plan the session around it before we meet. Nothing generic.

In the lesson I explain the concept with a worked example, then you take the keyboard while I watch and correct, because you learn far more doing it than watching me do it. You finish with annotated notes and a clear next step, and you can message me between sessions with questions.

Practical details

Online over Google Meet or Zoom with screen sharing and a shared whiteboard. Sessions run 60 or 90 minutes. I am based in the UK and teach across GMT and Central European time, with evening and weekend slots that suit students anywhere in Europe.

Tell me your course, your deadline and exactly where you are stuck, and I will come back with a plan for the first session.
