Scratch Tutoring FAQ
Schools in the United States have continued to emphasize STEM learning, adding more programs and extracurricular activities that encourage students to embrace these subjects. Computer science is among the most popular topics thanks to strong opportunities in the workforce. Unfortunately, many students don't have the chance to begin learning to code until high school or college.
Scratch is a programming interface that is aimed specifically at children. By providing a fun and attractive user interface featuring a cartoon cat, Scratch aims to engage elementary school students in computing technology, logic, and application development. It's a great introductory tool to the world of computer science that allows for the use of drag-and-drop instructions to piece together code. Scratch users are able to build stories, games, animations, and other fun projects.
If you would like to help your student develop some early computer science skills, you may want to have them work alongside a Scratch tutor who can help them get the most out of the software. Varsity Tutors can assist you by finding you Scratch tutoring that can meet the needs of you and your child.
Here are some of the things the student might learn about during Scratch tutoring:
Using the Scratch coding interface
Understanding sprites and animations
Using instructions to change variables like the color or size of something on-screen
Working with effects, art, and music
Understanding how working with Scratch relates to computer science in the real world
When you sign a child up for elementary school Scratch tutoring, you are opening them up to a new and exciting world. A Scratch tutor can show your student how to do a number of fun things using the tool, giving the child the opportunity to become engaged in coding. A tutor can focus on your child's interests to encourage this engagement as well. What's more, the tutor can work at your student's pace to ensure that they have ample time to understand a concept before moving on to something else.
A tutor can also focus on just the things a student needs to understand to make better use of Scratch. If a student is able to do some simple operations in the coding interface but needs to understand how to work with controls and operators, a tutor can help your student build those skills. A tutor can also simply observe and identify where your child has learning gaps and then create lessons that that fill them.
