Ive also been trying to find something similar.

My dad has been trying to learn to code and all the courses labeled "learn to code" seem to be coding on the web. Not learning "How to solve problems using code".

Ive had to take him manually through basics of control structures, variables,etc.

For everyday problem solving have you considering starting with an environment like Mathematica, Jupyter, Octave/Matlab, or even Excel?
