Instructor Details

Scott Barrett

Hello, I'm Scott, a developer with a passion for teaching. 

I've helped Hundreds of Thousands of students learn to code and change their lives by becoming developers.

My courses make learning to code fun and make hard concepts easy to understand. 

How do I do this?  By using animations!

Animating the code and the concepts makes everything more visually engaging which allows students to learn more material - in less time - with higher retention (a pretty good combination).

I will use these visuals to guide you, step-by-step, through the entire course.

My courses also include dozens-and-dozens of Coding Exercises.  So you can immediately put everything into practice as soon as you learn it (a very important step).

I have made several Free Sample Videos available for each course so you can see the difference the animations make. 

Also, I am very active on the Q&A, so I will be with you every_step_of _the_way.

I look forward to seeing you in the course.

Let's get started!  :-)

This is a great way to learn. I find difficulty when trying to do the coding exercise. I need the step-by-step instructions to fully understand how the coding is done. I will have made an effort to do the coding exercise and come close to the solution and then need further guidance.

By Pramoda Gode on 4/21/2026

Ye, it was a good course. I appreciate that we did not need to download any software and he was a very good teacher.

I am trying to learn Python basics. I tried Coddy.Tech, Datacamp & LabEx which are all good, but all 3 lost me early. Your course set the foundation, nice and slow, in small chunks and I am not understanding Python. Thanks!

By Ali Ibrahim Neamah on 2/23/2026

The course is overall average. The instructor speaks clearly and explains the concepts in a way that is easy to follow. However, some of the examples are not very clear, and the explanations of the exercises are often confusing. With clearer examples and more detailed explanations of the exercises, the course would be much better.

By Christopher Dotsey on 9/6/2025

In general, the course was amazing and also well explained. The coding exercises after each lesson was supremely helpful, it helped to know exactly what you are doing and increasing your understanding in it.

I liked how simple and clearly explained the concepts were which influenced me to leave this review. There were good examples and notes to bookmark which played a huge role in my understanding of the concepts. Im looking forward to enroll in Data Structure Algorithym aswell from the same tutor.

Excellent course! Clear, engaging, and perfect for beginners. The examples and exercises make learning Python easy and enjoyable. HIGHLY recommend!

By Raj A on 1/9/2025
