About this course
Arduino lets you connect code to the real world: lights, buttons, sensors, motors and small robots. Beginners usually get stuck on the same things: reading a circuit diagram, choosing the right resistor, why a pin needs pinMode, wiring a motor safely, and finding out whether a problem is in the code or in the wiring.
This course follows the standard Arduino learning path and the official documentation: electronics basics, the Arduino board and IDE, the structure of a sketch in Arduino C++, digital and analogue input and output, sensors, serial monitor debugging, motors and drivers, displays, libraries, and a final robotics project. Each module lists its topics and what you will be able to do at the end.
Learn with an affordable 1:1 online mentor who guides you through each build with short examples and helps you find faults in your circuit. Students and adults are both welcome. MentorNxt has free self-study lessons for Java and Python only, so Arduino is taught through mentoring. Message us on WhatsApp or email, or fill in the short form, for a free, no-obligation chat. We will suggest a plan that fits your budget and flexible timings, and you can start this week.

Learn by doing
Three LEDs and a pedestrian button, programmed as a state machine with timing based on millis() instead of delay().
Read a temperature sensor, show the value on an LCD and sound a buzzer when it passes a limit you set.
Use an ultrasonic sensor and a buzzer that beeps faster as an object gets closer, with the distance printed on the Serial Monitor.
A two-motor chassis with a servo-mounted ultrasonic sensor that looks around and chooses a clear path.
Infrared sensors detect a dark line and the code corrects the motor speeds to stay on it.

Prefer to talk first?
Message the support team directly. We usually reply the same day.
Our mentors teach and explain. They never complete graded work, tests or assessments for students.
Keep going
Linux on the Pi, Python, GPIO with gpiozero, sensors, camera and networking.
C++ from basics to memory, classes, the STL and modern C++.
C from first program to pointers, memory, structs and files.
A language-agnostic first course: logic, loops, functions, data and debugging.
Core Python from zero to functions, collections, files, OOP and algorithms.
