Beginner C Programming Course (12-Week Program)
Class Experience & Program Overview
C is one of the most foundational and widely used programming languages, often chosen as the first language to learn coding principles. This hands-on 12-week program is designed to give students a strong introduction to coding using the C language — with practical exercises, weekly assignments, and projects to reinforce learning.
Learning Approach:
Interactive classes with guided instruction and coding practice
Weekly assignments to solidify understanding
Mini-projects after covering key topics to connect ideas and apply skills
Final Project Showcase in the last session to demonstrate what students have learned
Personalized pacing based on student level and learning speed
Feedback on submitted projects to support growth
By the end of the course, students will have built a solid foundation in programming and be ready to explore more advanced concepts or other languages like Python, Java, or C++.
