Most kids think coding is for "smart kids" or "future programmers."
It's not. Coding is how real people solve real problems.
In this class, we skip the theory. Your child creates real things.

What they'll do:
✓ Build real projects in Scratch: a working game, an interactive animation, a story they coded
✓ Program virtual robots: solve real-world challenges (navigate a maze, automate a task, build a system)
✓ Create in Minecraft Education: design worlds, automate constructions, solve logic problems
✓ Experiment with different languages: not just learn "the right way," but understand that there are many ways to think about a problem
✓ Collaborate and share: work with other kids, get feedback, improve their work
✓ Develop logical thinking: not just for coding, but for anything: solving math problems, science challenges, real-world situations

Why this is different:
We don't teach syntax. We teach how programmers think.
Most children's coding courses say "here's the code, copy it." We teach "what problem are we trying to solve? How could we break it into steps? What options do we have?"
When your child learns to think like a programmer, they can learn any language afterward.

What they take home:
A portfolio of 3–4 completed, working projects. The ability to say "I built this." And the deep understanding that code is a tool to make real things happen.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Flexible pace, no prior experience needed
For curious 8-12 year olds who want to build.

In this course, you will learn how to scan any object using Reality Capture software. This efficient and powerful software was first used for the preservation of archaeological objects and historical monuments, but is now used for video games, VFX and virtual reality, as it offers tools and results of a impressive quality, all in an easy-to-use interface.

In this course, you will be able to learn:
-How does photogrammetry work?
-How to take suitable photos
-How to prepare these photos for their use in the software
-How to use these photos to reconstruct an object in 3D and apply a realistic texture to it
-How to optimize scans for custom use (games, movies, etc.)

Gradually, we will solidify these skills to learn how to build a library of highly realistic objects based on high resolution scans.

It is also possible to present your projects to me and to obtain personalized help on them.

Learn to draw by observing the world around you.
In these classes we will explore drawing from life: people, places and everyday scenes.

We can work from real objects, photographs, or illustrations.
If you're interested in manga, ink drawing, or ukiyo-e (traditional Japanese woodblock prints), we can also explore that style.

If you have something you'd like to draw, you can bring it to class.
If not, we will use reference materials that I have prepared.

No prior experience is necessary. Beginners are welcome.

You can draw on paper with a pencil or marker, or also on a tablet if you prefer to work digitally.

The classes are adapted to your level and your interests.

I am currently based in Tokyo and offer in-person classes in Tokyo, Yokohama, and Kawasaki, as well as online classes.
If you wish, we can also go outside and draw together while observing the city.

My teaching approach follows a structured workflow:
define the problem → understand the requirements → analyze the constraints → develop the geometry or data structure → create the drawing, model, or spatial analysis → verify accuracy → refine the solution → communicate it clearly

I do not simply demonstrate isolated commands. I help you understand why a workflow is appropriate, how information should be structured, how accuracy can be verified, how alternative solutions can be evaluated, and how the final technical idea should be communicated professionally.

We can work with your course syllabus, engineering problem, technical drawing, CAD file, Revit/BIM model, 3D model, parametric definition, GIS dataset, map, design project, portfolio, graphic layout, or professional workflow challenge.

Whether you are learning your first CAD commands, solving an engineering problem, developing a BIM workflow, building a 3D or parametric model, conducting spatial analysis, or improving technical visual communication, I will adapt the sessions to your level, objectives, and pace.

My goal is to help you become an independent technical problem solver who can analyze, design, model, verify, visualize, and communicate solutions with confidence.

I provide practical, one-to-one training in Autodesk Inventor and Autodesk Vault, focused on helping students understand the software and apply it effectively to real engineering work.

The training can be adapted to your current level and objective. We can work through Autodesk Inventor concepts step by step, or take a completely hands-on approach where you create your own models while I guide you, identify issues, explain better methods and share practical modelling and engineering best practices.

For Autodesk Inventor, topics can include part modelling, assemblies, drawings, design intent, modelling strategies, constraints, parameters, design changes and general CAD best practices. If you already have experience with Inventor, we can focus on improving your modelling approach, solving specific problems or reviewing your existing work.

For Autodesk Vault, we can focus on understanding document and design data management, file organisation, versioning, revisions, check-in/check-out, working with CAD data and practical workflows for managing engineering files.

The lessons are not based on a fixed syllabus. I adapt each session to what you actually need to learn or solve. You can also bring your own model, exercise, project or specific problem and we can work through it together.

I have more than 14 years of experience working at the intersection of engineering, manufacturing, CAD, PDM and PLM, so the focus is not only on which button to click, but also on understanding why a particular approach is useful in an engineering environment.

The lessons are suitable for students, engineering professionals, designers and anyone who wants to improve their practical Autodesk Inventor or Vault skills.

I am Sergio, an Agricultural Engineering student at the Autonomous University of Nuevo León, currently on academic exchange at the University of Castilla-La Mancha.

During my training I have worked with AutoCAD, irrigation system design, drafting plans, topographic surveys and agricultural installations.

I offer online AutoCAD 2D classes aimed primarily at engineering students and other technical students who need to learn how to use the program or reinforce their knowledge to develop their own projects.

The classes are practical and personalized. We can start from the fundamentals of the program or work with the knowledge you already have, using exercises related to your studies.

My goal is for you to learn how to use the tools, understand the procedures, and develop the ability to create your plans independently.

I also offer academic support in Agronomic Engineering subjects related to irrigation, fertilization, topography and plant production, according to the syllabus and the student's needs.

Individual online classes, available Monday to Friday.
