I will share with you the benefit of my knowledge of teaching ensuring that the teaching is engaging, professional and effective. Sarah has extensive experience in programming and is in her final year of Computer Science. Together we will bring you an engaging and highly unique look into the world of programming.What kind of materials are included?The course includes everything you need.
