Lloyd is an AI-native entrepreneur who specializes in automating businesses and processes with agentic workflows. His tech career started as "The YouTube Ads Guy," and when the early releases of ChatGPT and other LLMs emerged he saw AI as the most transformative technology of our lifetimes - and set about learning everything he could about it. Nowadays he's happy to check in between classes on the AI agents running his businesses while he shows Varsity Tutors students how they can do the same.

ABOUT THIS CLASS

Python is the most in-demand programming language in the world — and whether you're looking to automate tedious tasks, break into tech, or simply add a high-value skill to your resume, there's no better time to start than now. Introduction to Python for Adults gives you a real, practical foundation in one of the most versatile tools in any professional's toolkit. In a small-group setting led by an expert instructor, you'll learn how Python actually works, write real code from day one, and build the problem-solving mindset that separates programmers who get things done from everyone else. This course is built for adult learners who are brand new to coding or returning after a long break — no prior experience required, just the drive to learn.

SYLLABUS

Getting Started with Python Learn how Python actually works, set up your environment, and write and run your first programs using core syntax, variables, and data types.

Making Decisions with Conditionals Direct how your programs run with if, elif, and else, and combine conditions to handle real-world logic.

Repeating Work with Loops Use for and while loops to automate repetitive tasks and process data one item at a time.

Writing Functions Build and use functions to write clean, reusable, efficient code that's easy to read and test.

Working with Data Structures Store and organize information with Python's essential data structures, including lists, dictionaries, and tuples.

Debugging and Real-World Python Troubleshoot errors with confidence, approach new problems with a structured mindset, and see how Python is used across real professional settings.
