P1-6 EMS Teaching Methodology:
Through problem-based learning, students are exposed to questions that will test their fundamentals. Their fundamentals are refined through practice. Clear and concise presentation of workings is emphasized to inculcate clarity of thought needed to develop high-end problem-solving skills.

Introduction to Programming with Python Teaching Methodology:
9 Modules with each module consisting of a 1.5-2 hour lecture (with exercises that allow students to code along to emphasize concepts and test their understanding) with a take-home assignment (mini-project, for example, creating a card game).
Each module builds upon each other to expose the student to the world of programming, while emphasizing critical thinking and high-end problem-solving skills.
In total, there are 9 modules:
0. Functions, Variables
1. Conditionals
2. Loops
3. Exceptions
4. Libraries
5. Unit Tests
6. File I/O
7. Regular Expressions
8. Object-Oriented Programming

At the end of the project, the student is equipped with the knowledge and skills to continue to develop their own interest in learning a new language and ways to solve problems. Read less
