How the Python Course Works

The program is designed for 64 classes

Contains 8 modules, each of which covers the most relevant and important aspects of programming, for example: creating windowed applications, programming chatbots or cryptography.

Let's analyze the basic principles of programming

During the course, we will learn the basic constructions of the language, such as variables, operations, conditions, and more complex: conditional statements, loops, lists, simulating a dialogue with a program. Learning programming languages can compare with foreign languages: each has its own syntax and structure.

All the theory will be consolidated with practice

Let's learn to create games using Pygame - a Python library for creating games and develop our own projects and implement hit games by improving them.

Let's create our own portfolio of projects

Let's learn more than 5 global libraries and 7 different projects: from a 2D game to a website!

We issue a certificate after completing the course

What result will the child get after completing the course

Master algorithm design rules and basic programming language constructs.

Improve their level of technical English.

Develop a Telegram chatbot and integrate artificial intelligence into it.

Lay the foundation to become a top programmer during university studies.

Create desktop applications using the Tkinter library and implement complex game algorithms in Pygame.

My parents gave me a Python course for my birthday, I really didn't want to do it online, I wanted to do it offline, in the situation in the country there was no such possibility. When I took the first lesson I the teacher was interested in a very cool approach to each of us. I like everything. I've been studying for six months and almost finished the course. I recommend it to everyone!
