Argentina Coding Classes

Buenos Aires, Argentina
8/3/2020 - 8/7/2020

After getting in contact with a teammate’s old classmates from a school in Argentina, we set up a beginner’s Python class for anyone in that area between the ages of 13 and 17 from August 3rd to 7th. Conducted almost entirely in spanish, we taught 10 beginner-level students to make small programs and games, a great first step on their software-learning journey. Five days of crash-course Python were able to get all students able to code small games relatively independently. We are proud that we were able to help them get started in learning software given how important of a skill it is in this increasingly technology-heavy world.
