Josh Johnson
Teacher

Yo, I’m Josh, or as they refer to me among the other Computer Explorers teachers, Agent Dude.  The latter name being more of a joke as my first class was Spybots.  I’m a student at the Colorado School of Mines going for a double major in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering with a passion for robotics.  I’ve been self-motivating towards engineering starting with my first LEGO® kits and have since followed a path that lets me bring my ideas to full reality.  Much of the robotics I do in school actually depends on LEGO® robotics, so I find many modern and real life applications for the classes I teach.  My mother ran a daycare business until I was 17, so I’m accustomed to the joys and troubles of teaching a moderate size group of young children.  In addition, I’m simply amazing, always keeping my cool and wits about me so as to maximize learning and fun potential.
