Depending on the student's interests and skill level, we will find a project that is fitting for the student. Our mentors have outside teaching experience as well as access to internal curriculums developed by our team. We can teach students anything from Scratch to C++, and everything in between. If you're interested in seeing some sample projects, visit our Curriculum page.
What makes building bytes different than other similar services?
Building Bytes specializes in making coding interesting and accessible for girls. Girls have historically been excluded from STEM fields so we seek mentors who can best connect with our students and who can develop curriculums that are most interesting to them. We also work with pedagogy specialists who help us curate learning techniques for engaging the girls we work with.
