Why do you want to learn coding? Knowing how to code is fun. Plus, it helps make threads pretty.
Have you read the rules? Yes.

Hopefully, but school is starting soon… so I may be able to some weeks & not others…
Is there anything in particular you wish to learn? Hmmm maybe some advanced stuff, like how to do borders, etc.
Anything else I should know?
I don’t think so.

It’s preferable if you’re able to commit to every assignment since they build on top of each other. If you’re too busy, you’re welcome to wait until the entire course is over and then work at your own pace. That being said, do you still want to join now? I ask because I do grade students who are in the class as it’s ongoing.

Why do you want to learn coding?: I love coding. I know a little python and can code in java through greenfoot and bluejay. I even have a robot i code! I want to learn this kind of code because it looks cool and fun. Also i was supposed to learn this before school shut down. I’ve tried teaching myself a little, but I want to make sure I’m following proper etiquette (aka not coding in 6 languages in one code lolol)
Have you read the rules?: yes i have!
Can you commit at least one hour a week to this?: easy!
Is there anything in particular you wish to learn?: I’m looking forward to making the pretty boxes 
Anything else I should know?: don’t think so
