Learn to code for free. A 4 week course open to anyone who lives within a 20 mile radius of Chiddingfold. If you want to join one of the courses, then please use the contact form to introduce yourself.

Each course is 4 weeks long and consists of 5 zoom calls that last an hour. The actual time depends on the participants. My preferred time is 18:30 to 19:30 on a Wednesday evening.

You will typically need to run zoom on a laptop, desktop or 10 inch tablet so that you can read the text on the shared screen. Ideally, you should be able to type along on a laptop or desktop to do the activities. It is possible to do the activities on a tablet as long as you have a bluetooth keyboard and are familiar with sharing your screen on the device. A phone does not have a big enough screen for learning to code.

Each of the courses that I will be running are listed below:
