AI workshops
for teenagers.
3 different parents have asked me the same thing over the last 2 months. Do you run AI workshops for teenagers? It is a signal that is hard to ignore, so I'm asking properly. Nothing is scheduled and nothing is priced yet. Tell me what it should cover, and if it happens you'll be the first to know!
🧠 What it would cover
- What an LLM is and how it comes up with an answer. Where it is confidently wrong, and the importance of verifying.
- How to use it without handing over your thinking.
- How to turn it into your own personal tutor.
- How to get it to quiz and test you, using game mechanics to enhance learning.
- How to use it for research and projects properly.
🚫 What it is not
This is not a coding class.
The thinking stays with them. They learn what is going on under the answer, so they can tell when it is wrong.
👩💻 Who runs it
I teach AI to working adults, mostly here in Singapore, and I'm co-founder of WTFox.ai.
Why am i running it? It is my personal belief that my daughter will be using AI the way we are using the internet now. I rather teach her the right way to use it and harness its potential.
✉️ Rather just email me?
Go for it! hello@iamcoachgina.com. Or DM me on LinkedIn if that is easier.
What parents ask first
What age is this for?
13 to 18 years olds. Uni students are welcome too.
Does my teenager need any technical background?
None. Every technical term would get a plain English definition and an example the first time it appears. They would need a laptop and an account you set up with them, see the next question on that. We would practise on a made-up assignment, since most schools now have their own rules about what can be pasted into an AI tool.
Do I need to set up the account for my teen?
Yes, and that one is not negotiable. We would run on ChatGPT. It allows 13 to 17 year olds only with a parent or guardian's permission, so the account gets set up by you, in your name, and you stay in the loop. Kindly sort that out before the session, it takes 5 mins.
Is this teaching kids to cheat on their homework?
The opposite. Paste the question in, copy the answer out, is the habit this is built to break. They would learn what the model is doing when it answers and why it is confidently wrong sometimes, so they can use it to be quizzed and stretched instead of to skip the work.
When does it run and what does it cost?
Neither is set. This page exists to find out whether enough parents want it before anything is scheduled. Register and I'll email you if it happens.
While you're here
The grown-up version of all this, and what I write about in between.
