Hello, I’m Bruno, teaching in an italian high school. This program is amazing. It’s a new way of teaching and a big support because all materials are ready to use. Actually I’m teaching humanities, but I’m very interested in technology and I like this approach. It’s a pitty that only few people (collegues and students) in my school know enough english to participate. Thanks a lot! God bless you!

Hi, my name is David Victor Banares. I teach Junior High Computer Science and have been using [code.org](http://code.org) over the years. No matter how may years I have taught computer science on these levels, I always find something new to teach each year. [Code.org](http://Code.org) is amazing and I could not imaging not finding it for the school. I am most excited to be honing my coding skills to the next level and imparting my knowledge to the students.

I have an education background in High School English/Language Arts and Math, so this is a new avenue for me. I am most looking forward to learning alongside my son. Let’s see if you can teach this “old dog some new tricks!” 🙂

I am uncertain which one to post under, so I am posting to all 3 introductory pages.

My name is Brenda Songy and I teach primarily high school freshmen with a sprinkling of sophomores, juniors, and seniors. I plan to teach the first 3 units of CS Discoveries this year, and I would like to add Machine Learning to give the kids a hands-on experience. Now that I have one year under my belt, I can move a little faster through the curriculum and I would like to introduce the kids to 3-D printing.
