Hello! My name is Jackson, and I am a Game Design graduate with an Associate of Applied Science in Game Design and experience developing games in Unity using C#. I previously worked as a tutor at Code Ninjas, where I taught children and teenagers coding, game development, and problem-solving skills through hands-on projects. Working with students of different ages and experience levels required me to know how to adapt lessons to each learner's needs while keeping them engaged and motivated.
My teaching style focuses on guided discovery rather than simply providing answers. I believe students learn best when they actively think through problems and experiment with solutions, themselves. During lessons, I ask questions that encourage critical thinking and help students develop the confidence to solve challenges independently. I act as a mentor and guide, helping students understand not only how something works but WHY it works.
Lessons are project-based and centered around creating real games in Unity. Students learn programming concepts such as variables, functions, game logic, and debugging while building projects that match their interests and skill level. Whether a student is completely new to coding or already has some experience, my goal is to help them develop technical skills, creativity, and problem-solving abilities while transforming their passion for video games into the ability to create games of their own.
