Coders are superheroes.

You know why?

They can build anything.

Websites. Apps. Artificial Intelligence. Games. You name it.

When I picked up my first, ten-pound coding manual at 13 years old, the kids at school called me a nerd. I LOVED IT. Because I knew, even then, that being a "nerd" meant a well-paying job, interesting hobbies, and a lifetime of fulfillment and progress.

My parents were critical to my success - they taught me to think ahead and develop valuable skills while the other kids were goofing off and sleeping through class.

Because I learned to code, I have freedom.

By 24 years old, I was working as a software engineer, making more money than my parents did in their 30's. I saved up enough to cover 12 months of expenses with a wife and three kids. We even bought a home - yes, in today's crazy market.

And then? I took the leap. I quit my job.

It was always my dream to work for myself. I wanted to build my own dreams, not pursue someone else's.

Now, my mission is to make coding fun for kids.

Like I mentioned before, coding is a super power. In the 21st century, it is just as important as knowing basic math.

Unfortunately, most of the options out there are boring or too easy. I hear ALL THE TIME from kids and parents who tried Code.org, ScratchJr, and Khan Academy that they never felt challenged or inspired.

How tragic!

I'm doing it better - with Minecraft.

Kids LOVE Minecraft. It has a way of inspiring them to be creative.

And now, they can code while they play!

Drawing on my personal experiences reading big, boring books, I have designed a curriculum that my young self would have LOVED - one that is both fun and challenging.

Puzzles. Mazes. Animals. Circuits. Redstone contraptions. TNT. Superpowers. Parkour. Custom skins. Potions. Fireworks. Zero gravity.

Some highlights:

⭐️ / Minimal screen time: only requires 1-2 hours per week

⭐️ / No experience required: this course is designed as an introduction to programming.

⭐️ / Easy milestone tracking: includes a Parent's Guide PDF that will help you measure your child's progress and pass off assignments.
