I decided that how to prepare students for programming competitions would be a very interesting topic. It’s definitely a rarer situation, but I have taught a few students who were primarily focused on programming competitions. I will also be discussing some resources for teaching competitive programming classes.

One thing I always like to introduce my more advanced students to is Regex. I found a great online resource for learning Regex, that I have found a lot of success using in class.

It is quite useful to be able to show a YouTube video in class, or have a student watch a video at home. The main issue I have found is not knowing which videos will be appropriate or not. I worry about exposing any of my students to inappropriate material, so I am very cautious of which videos I play. I usually prewatch all of them. Today, I will be listing 5 kid friendly YouTube channels, that you don’t have to worry about at all.
