About the store
In my senior year of highschool, I did an internship teaching in a 2nd-grade classroom. I was there every other day, all day. I was able to teach, prepare lessons, and get a glimpse into how children learn.
As much as I loved teaching, I went to college and discovered my true calling in life, to be a computer scientist. To fund my way through college, I substitute taught in my local school district. I graduated in Computer Science with a Bachelors degree, and I work full time as a software developer.
My love for teaching has not gone away, and I substitute teach about once a week still.
I hope to bring my industry experience and teach children the powerful tools of coding and computers.
Code is the language of the future, I hope we can begin teaching children this powerful language sooner.

Binary to Hex Conversions
Computers do everything using only 1's and 0's. This can become super hard to read, so humans often convert these 0's and 1's into a (slightly) more human readable form, called Hex! This is a conversion from Binary to Hex: 001010101111010111010001000011100010 = 3af5d10e2 See, isn't that much easier to read than a long patter of 0's and 1's? As a computer engineer, I convert binary to hex on a daily basis. It's a rather easy activity, which just takes a little bit of practice.

Binary Addition
Computers only use 0's and 1's to perform calculations. This worksheet will show you how a computer does math, and let you practice performing basic math problems the same way a computer does.

Computer Science If Statements
Computers can’t make decisions on their own. Humans have to “program” every decision they make. A human tells a computer if it should do this or that. This is done by a system called if-else statements. Basically you tell a computer “If this is true then do this, else do that." This lesson is designed for children ages 8-11
