Coding is gradually becoming an essential skill in today's digital world. Not only for males, but coding is also a field full of potential for female students to explore and develop. This article will share the story of Nhi, an outstanding female student at Algorithmics, about her coding learning journey and the benefits it brings.
Nhi is a 14-year-old student studying Python in Algorithmics. When she started coding, both her parents and Nhi thought of it as an extracurricular subject, helping Nhi explore and learn new things. However, after a period of studying coding at Algorithmics, she became fascinated with the course and wanted to delve deeper into coding and create "cool" tech projects.
Just after a few months of studying at Algorithmics, Nhi was able to independently code a supermarket software using Python, where people could order fruits online. In Particular, the software would automatically calculate inventory, costs, and product prices. She promised to develop this software further and add many other outstanding features to it.

Although she was interested in this subject, Nhi still faced many difficulties during the learning process. This was not only a new subject but also a completely unfamiliar language, requiring high concentration and logical thinking. While Nhi is an active and easily distracted girl, with the easy-to-understand coding foundation, treating each piece of knowledge as a small exercise, helping her understand deeper and have a more solid foundation - along with dedicated guidance from Algorithmics teachers, Nhi overcame the difficulties to absorb new knowledge and improve herself.
Developing concentration, learning spirit, and high self-learning ability in the process of software development. Teachers will guide and accompany you through each small step to complete the project.
Developing logical thinking and problem-solving skills through the process of "piecing together pieces of knowledge into a complete picture" and solving system errors.
Improving computer and soft skills: Learning coding helps Nhi enhance her computer skills, communication, and presentation skills, as she has to present her project to teachers and parents in both English and Vietnamese.
There are many career opportunities in the future: The information technology industry is developing strongly, so learning coding will open up many career opportunities for you in the future.
With the intention of letting his child experience this subject in the early stages of learning, however, Dad sees that after the learning process, Nhi is still very interested and wants to continue with this subject. Dad feels very happy because Nhi doesn't feel bored. When looking at the results of the code lines Nhi has done, for adults like Dad, it's still hard to understand and easy to get discouraged, but Nhi still feels happy and excited to continue learning. This makes Dad very proud.

Regarding coding courses, Dad feels that although learning now, it's not certain whether in the future his child will become a coder, or may not be able to use these skills. However, this subject can help develop many other things like critical thinking, soft skills,... from which can be applied to many other aspects of life. In addition, during the coding learning process, his child uses mathematical knowledge, English,... learned in class in personal projects. From there, the child can understand more about applying classroom knowledge to practical situations.
After his child presented his project, Dad saw that the project his child did was quite complex but could be carried out in a very systematic manner, with data,... Through the project, Dad could see how his child developed logical thinking and concentration skills. Dad also asked Nhi to create small software to manage the library, and Nhi gradually learned and did it. Just in 6 months, the child could do such things, which made Dad very proud!

Learning coding is not just a subject for boys or only for students with talent and career direction, but it is also a subject that helps children develop critical thinking and soft skills, which will be beneficial for their future. Algorithmics is proud to be the companion school for young people on the journey of conquering knowledge and developing coding skills.
