I'm a postgraduate from National University of Singapore, with about 6 years of experience teaching Computer Science to both university and school students. I have recently been teaching English and Computational Thinking for preschoolers and primary level students. What is Computational Thinking? _______________________________ Computational Thinking is envisioned as "a universally applicable attitude and skill set that every child, not just emerging computer scientists, would be eager to learn and use". It's an essential part of every child's education. Computatonal thinking is broadly defined as a collection of cognitive and problem solving skills that includes (but not limited to) recognizing patterns, logically organizing and analyzing data, breaking down a bigger problem into smaller parts and formulating problems in a way that is easier for a computer to solve more problems efficiently. Taking this course will enhance your child's creativity, logical reasoning ability and algorithmic skills which they can use to approach their everyday living as well as future academic pursuits. This course will also help them prepare and participate in computational thinking competitions worldwide. As an ardent researcher in Early Childhood Education, I am also offering courses on holistic education and well-being for preschoolers, primary children and parents of infants and toddlers. This will include teaching about general well-being and happiness of children and practicing well-being through scientifically tested exercises like showing gratitude and identifying character strengths.
