Qualifications

In this course you'll start from the ground up with the iOS SDK, Xcode, and Swift (Apple's new programming language). The iOS course covers the development and best practices for building, testing, debugging, and deploying iOS apps. Learn about what Apple brings to the table and how you'll work with the tools they provide! By the end of the course you'll understand core concepts and how they work together in your apps like Model-View-Controller (MVC), segues and navigation, APIs, and much more! This course will cover the “do’s and don'ts” of iOS mobile development, methods for connecting the UI to your code, and tips for making responsive layouts that display correctly on different screen sizes.

What we're looking for:

• Skills and experience in the topic(s) you’ll be teaching in class. These topics could include, but are not limited to:
• Swift Data Types and Flow Control
• Swift Functions
• Swift Value Types: Enums and Structs
• Swift classes and OOP
• More important than deep technical experience is the ability to communicate effectively to beginners. Someone with good communication skills and social aptitude is key.
• Someone with a passion and understanding of teaching code. Dedication, persistence, patience, attention to detail, and enthusiasm are great characteristics for this role.
• A good and inviting attitude.
