What makes
your Dojo special?
CoderDojo
Waterloo was founded as a bilingual Dojo (French and English) to accommodate both
the kids from Waterloo (Wallonia) and the kids from families of expats around
Brussels. Just like our ninjas, our coaches are multinational and come from all over
the world. To stimulate kids in developing their coding and soft skills, we
actively use the belt system. To learn more about it, check out this link.
Some good
advice for other coaches/cooks:
Coaches and
cooks are the heart of the CoderDojo and without their contribution, this
initiative wouldn’t be possible. That’s why we should show them how important they
are on an everyday basis. For example, an applause for coaches
at the end of the Dojo, acknowledgement of the coaches on your Dojo’s website,
a specially organized team building event, etc.
Top coaches! :)
