Over the course of three weeks, we taught dozens of kids the fundamentals of coding, including Python and JavaScript. Not only did the students have a blast, but they also gained a number of valuable skills that will serve them well throughout their lives.

Most of us have fond memories of a teacher, whether they were in school, a holiday camp or at an after-school activity. Perhaps they are of your favourite teacher, or the one you looked up to as a role model, or the one who taught you something so significant you still remember it now. 

Today, on 5th October, we celebrate World Teachers’ Day. It’s an occasion to ‘acknowledge, evaluate and enhance the instructors of the world’ and be thankful for all the hard work they put into teaching us and helping us learn.
