 Welcome to the helloneo.ca website.
-This is a wiki in which I record the way in which I taught programming to my son, Neo, since he was eight years old. He's much older now, and I have updated these lessons as I continue to teach programming to other kids.
+This is a wiki where I was going to record how I taught Neo programming, but he progressed so fast that I haven't had time to put his projects on here. Then it became a collection of stuff I taught to other kids, mainly Highschool kids in Taiwan. But now, I'll use this space to document a few of the more interesting projects Neo and I are working on. He's much older now, and will probably enter university soon. I think he's done an amazing job.
