Class Experience & Program Overview
C++ is one of the most widely used programming languages and a great starting point for anyone new to coding. It teaches core programming concepts that form the foundation for learning other languages in the future.
This 12-week hands-on course is designed to help students learn the fundamentals of C++ through guided lessons, interactive exercises, and real coding projects. No prior programming experience is required.
Program Highlights:
- Hands-on learning with weekly assignments and coding exercises
- Project-based approach to reinforce concepts in a practical way
- Final Project Showcase to demonstrate students' understanding
- Ongoing mini-projects throughout the course
- Individualized pace to suit each student's comfort and experience level
- Instructor feedback on submitted projects to support growth

(Note: Session order may be adjusted based on student progress and learning needs.)
- Session 1: Introduction to C++, Data Types, Strings, Variables, Naming Rules
- Session 2: Continued Practice: Data Types, Strings, Expressions
- Session 3: Writing Comments in C++, Arithmetic Operators
- Session 4: Relational & Logical Operators, Constructing Expressions
- Session 5: Conditional Statements: if, else, else if
- Session 6: While Loops – Repeating Code Based on Conditions
- Session 7: For Loops – Repeating Code a Set Number of Times

What to Expect:
Students will receive notes and assignments after each class to help reinforce learning during the week.
In addition to the final project, students will be encouraged to create and submit individual projects for feedback.
The program will be flexibly paced to ensure each student grasps the concepts before moving forward.
