Education
Safety
Customer service
Exceptional education: prepare for the class, deliver class demonstrations and lead class discussions, manage the classroom, guide students through exploring computer programming concepts.
ensure room is ready prior to start of class: projector, screen, wifi/internet.
Quality customer service including responding to customer questions e.g. from parents or school teachers.
Complete roll call at the start of each class.
Help students with individual problems
Facilitate learning and exploration by asking the student questions that will guide them and help them discover the solution themselves rather than giving prescriptive directions
Ensure safety of children in your care. Remain with children e.g. in case of late pick up.
Teamwork: We generally have a class of 16 students with 2 tutors or 22 students with 3 tutors. Classes work best when the team of tutors communicate and work together.
Coding Kids is growing fast.

However, a strong understanding of our front line roles is vital to further progress in the company.
