Coding as a Hobby

​Ever thought of trying coding just for fun?

​Programming doesn’t have to be about careers, jobs, or math degrees - it can simply be a fun mental workout for anyone who enjoys puzzles and creativity.

​My name is Alexander Belyakov, and I'm a Python instructor with over 4 years of experience teaching students at a programming school, as well as four stints as a Section Leader at Stanford University’s “Code in Place” program, guiding people from all over the world through their first steps in coding.

​Join a friendly 1.5-hour online masterclass where we will write our own Rock, Paper, Scissors game in Python - and discuss some coding fundamentals in the process. Absolutely no previous programming experience required, and absolutely free!

​My goal is to show that programming can be as enjoyable as solving a riddle or playing a strategy game - a creative exercise for your brain, not a stressful technical task.

​Here are some reviews from my previous Code in Place students:
