Hey Carrie,
I would like to teach at my local community college too! Iā€™d like to teach an aviation education course there. I am a newbie to computer science, like you. So far the learning process has been kind of fun, donā€™t you think??

My name is Jih-Chiun Lee, my English name is Jesse, so call me Jesse will be great. It will be my 20th year of teaching next school year (2015-2016). I am a computer teacher currently teaching mostly primary students from K to 3, but I also have 6th and 8th graders. My school has been using Code.org material for the past two school years, and I, personally, am very excited for this opportunity to learn more from this program.
