10-week Coding Classes for Middle and High schoolers

In Porter Square

About
Instructor Adam Peters

My name is Adam! I'm a Software Engineer, and I've taught hundreds of students of all ages web development, AI, AP-Level Courses, and more. I've been teaching Computer Science to kids for nearly a decade at non-profits, in front of classrooms, and one-on-one. I've developed my own curriculum that prioritizes collaboration, problem-solving, creativity, and fun. 

​

Before I was a Software Engineer I went to Tufts University. In my free time, I like to read, rock climb, and play violin and guitar!

Hi!

My Approach to Teaching

Problem Solving

Creativity

I create multi-leveled problems that allow students to go at their own pace, and ask questions that point kids in the right direction. Learning the answer is fine, but discovering the answer is satisfying, memorable, and fun!

Coding is all about creating your own solutions -- it's really a different way of thinking. I allow students to create their own answers and solve their own problems. 

Collaboration

Fun

With in-person classes, I allow students to work and strive together. The world is collaborative -- students shouldn't just stare at their computers in silence!

I want my students to love what they do. Coding can be creative, challenging, and rewarding, but most of all, it can just be fun!

Python I: Turtle Graphics

In this class, students learn the basics of python -- control flow, if statements, variables, functions, lists -- through Turtle Graphics, culminating with a final project of student choice. This class is perfect for students with no experience!​​​

Python II: Algorithms

Here, students learn the fundamentals of solving algorithms. We focus on interesting problems like determining prime numbers and calculating the fibonaccci sequence. Great for older students with no coding experience
