Description
This course is a step-by-step guide or introduction into the world of coding, creativity and imagination. In this course, we will launch into the journey of coding cool games and animations using the Scratch programming language developed by MIT.
Coding is the language of the future and it is said that in the years to come, an educated person isn't going to be the one who can read and write alone but the one who can also code. This is a beginner's course and it easy to understand and work with. It is hands-on, so you'll start creating immediately.
My teaching style is fun and I take my time to explain every concept I teach. The lessons are developed to be fun and engaging as we go on this journey. The projects are specially selected so you can grasp complex computer science concepts while having fun creating them.
The course is designed for:
· Parents or teachers who want to give their children the best skills and most fun
· Kids, teens, and beginners who want to learn to code games
· Anyone new to programming who doesn't know where to start
I can't wait to have you take this course!

Instructor
Hi, I’m Olaseni and I am the Founder of Young Empowered Programmers-YEP!, an Edtech company that trains kids between the ages of 5 and 16 on ICT skills with an emphasis on Computer Programming and Robotics.
For the past three years, my company YEP! has helped over 6000 students gain some level of computer literacy and has introduced children to the world of code.
My teaching style is fun and simple and I leave no stone unturned while explaining concepts because I believe this is the best way to learn. I am passionate about preparing youth for the digital economy and this is why I facilitate and organize educational events for children and young adults with a focus on promoting the knowledge of computer programming and robotics.
As a result of my work, I won the 2019 Future Awards Africa Prize for Education.
