👋 Hello! I’m Teacher Lana
I’m a Startup Founder, AI Product Manager, AI Software Engineer and Computer Science teacher, mom of two, and a lifelong mindfulness practitioner. Alongside my work in technology, I teach students what I love — how to work creatively, thoughtfully, and in a healthy way with new technologies. I bring real-world experience into a warm, playful learning environment where children can experiment, make mistakes, solve problems, and build things they’re proud of.
🤖 AI & coding fundamentals🎨 Creativity & imagination🧠 Problem-solving & critical thinking🧘🏻♀️ Focus & mindfulness
Your child won’t just use technology. They’ll learn to create with it.
Let’s talk about your child →WHY PARENTS CHOOSE MINDFUL CODING CATS
More than “learning to code.” 😻
Kids already love technology. I help them move from simply consuming it to creating, thinking and expressing themselves with it.
WHAT HAPPENS IN CLASS?
From “I have an idea!” to “I made this!” ✨
Each class is built around creating. Students learn a concept, experiment with it, and turn their own ideas into something that works.
Start with an idea, question, interest or problem worth exploring.
Explore coding, AI and creative technology with guidance from Teacher Lana.
Build a working project, solve problems and keep improving it.
The goal isn’t just to finish an exercise. It’s to experience the joy of turning imagination into something real.
