Teaching Computer Science Remotely to Kids The K12 Engineering Education Podcast

    • Education

Vivian Shen and Ruby Lee want to teach kids how to program one-on-one over the
internet. Vivian and Ruby are Cofounders of Juni Learning, their new educational
startup that provides programming lessons to kids like how others provide
private piano lessons. Although they both studied computer science at Stanford,
they got to computer science at an older age than the kids they are now serving.
They talk about why they started Juni Learning and the benefits and challenges
of teaching CS live online. Related to this episode: • Juni Learning:
