Description

Description:
Your child writes their first working Python program in the first few weeks and ships small projects to GitHub by the end. Covers the core building blocks (variables, loops, functions, file I/O, debugging) through hands-on practice. AI coding tools are used as a tutor — to explain unfamiliar code, suggest fixes, and build the habit of understanding code rather than blindly copying it.

Below is a summary of the material covered in each module:

Lesson 1: Getting Started Lesson 2: Simple Data Types
Lesson 3: Introducing Lists Lesson 4: Working with Lists
Lesson 5: If Statements Lesson 6: Dictionary
Lesson 7: Functions Lesson 8: Classes
Lesson 9: Files & Exceptions Lesson 10: Final Exam

 

This course is inspired by the course CS41 taught at Stanford University.
