Personal Description:
A true renaissance man, Alex makes: mini epic films, video installations, games, photographs, sculpture, blogs and books. Using readily available materials and software the work often has a feeling of improvisation, an initial throwaway idea made visible.

Throughout his practice there is a sense of an acceptance of failure or disappointment as important parts of the human condition. He makes light with big issues and is, in turn, haunting and funny. His humorous sculpture typically conveys a sense of the accidental, eternally on the brink of failure or collapse. Recent DIY apocalypses, created from expanding builders' foam, seem to have an unruly, malevolent life of their own and explore the processes of invasion and infection. While his films and writing play with ideas of chance, quotidian struggles, the loss of control and responsibility.

Teaching Experience:

I have taught a range of students of all ages and backgrounds from: National Diploma, Extended Diploma, Art Foundation, Degree to MA level.
I have experience in all fields of art and design but my specialist areas include: Sculpture, Drawing, Video, Art History, Cotextual Studies, Art Theory and installation.
I am expert at preparing students' portfolios for interview at Foundation and Degree level.
I am also able to advise in a number of areas of profesional practice including: Statement writing, CVs, recording work, publicity and basic website construction.
I have also had experience of teaching adults basic IT skills.

Tutoring Approach:

I am happy to tutor online and in person either in my own studio or by home visits (by bicycle)
I am an easy going and responsive tutor, happy to discuss individual student's needs and to guide them through all stages of their art and design career.

Personal Description:
My name is Ahmed, and I am deeply passionate about teaching and learning. This passion is what led me to choose education as my profession, as it allows me to work with people from diverse backgrounds, understand their individual needs, and take on the rewarding challenge of helping them grow-both academically and personally.

The most important part of my work is seeing my students leave a session with confidence, curiosity, and a sense of achievement. I feel genuinely honoured when students are able to apply what they have learned, whether it is mastering a new programming concept, building a robotics project, or developing computational and problem-solving skills. Their satisfaction and progress are my greatest measures of success.

I am a patient, friendly, and approachable educator, and I place great importance on building strong rapport with my students. I believe that effective teaching goes beyond delivering content-it requires trust, encouragement, and mentorship. As a teacher and tutor, I strive to ensure that students see me not only as an instructor, but as a mentor who supports them in bringing out the best in their abilities and personality.

My professional expertise spans Computer Science education, programming, robotics, and artificial intelligence. I have extensive experience teaching programming to learners of different ages and abilities, guiding students through logical thinking, coding principles, and real-world applications. I am also actively involved in robotics education, helping students connect hardware and software through hands-on learning.

Beyond teaching, I work with organisations and individuals to support the implementation of AI solutions, helping teams understand how artificial intelligence can be integrated ethically and effectively into their workflows. I also teach Generative AI, focusing on how modern AI tools can be used responsibly to enhance creativity, productivity, and learning, while developing a strong understanding of their limitations and impact.

Teaching Experience:

I have been teaching for nearly 20 years, with extensive experience across secondary, post-16, higher education, and adult learning. I completed my Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering from City University London in 2006, before undertaking a range of teacher-training programmes that enabled me to transition successfully into education.

In 2013, I completed a Master's degree in Education with PGCE from UCL (Institute of Education), further strengthening my pedagogical knowledge and classroom practice. Since then, I have taught across KS3, KS4, and KS5, as well as at university level and with mature learners, adapting my approach to suit learners of different ages, abilities, and cultural backgrounds.

I have worked in multiple international school settings, gaining valuable experience within diverse educational systems and multicultural environments. This has shaped my inclusive, student-centred approach to teaching and leadership, and strengthened my ability to support learners from a wide range of academic and cultural contexts.

Currently, I work at a renowned Grammar School, where I serve as Head of Computer Science, leading curriculum design, teaching and learning strategy, and departmental development. Alongside my leadership role, I remain actively involved in classroom teaching, enrichment programmes, and the integration of innovative technologies within Computer Science education.

Tutoring Approach:

My approach is based on students' needs, which gives me and my students' satisfaction as it helps them to learn better.

Personal Description:
I am a freelance software developer and professional trainer who also provides one-to-one personal tuition services in computing, programming and IT related subjects. I took my first steps in programming as long ago as 1981, and have been a professional software developer since 1987. Along with the teaching and training side of my career, I develop software and web-sites for my clients, and I have been published several times in respected programming-journals.

I am also a BBC preferred-supplier, and am a professional life-member of the Association for Computing Machinery (founded in 1947 - the world's largest and most prestigious scientific and educational computing society). I have also published a book on the technicalities of e-book production.

The topics and languages I cover are: C/C++, Java, JavaScript, PHP, SQL (MySQL in particular), Regular Expressions, HTML/CSS, Python, VB and assembly language, along with software design, implementation and development principles (what many people call Object Orientation and Software Engineering), and web site design and implementation.

Teaching Experience:

I have provided private-tuition services since 1992, and was a lecturer at Roehampton University from September 1998 to October 1999. I have provided professional training services since 1999, during which time I have delivered over 110 professional courses in programming and software design and development, for companies in the aircraft industry, computer gaming, banking, web development and the BBC.

Tutoring Approach:

My approach to teaching and training pivots on the most important factor - passion for one's subject. I attempt to demonstrate to the student the power and beauty of what computing and programming involves, and place a firm emphasis on explaining concepts in the simplest and most day-to-day terms.

In the sphere of private tuition for children and young adults, I have found that working through past exam-papers with the pupil or student is an extremely effective way of helping the individual's understanding and exam performance to improve.

In the sphere of the professional training I provide, clients cite frequently my passion for the subject, the original and clear explanations that I use, and the depth of my technical understanding as the factors of note in their view of my services. Delegates on the professional courses I have delivered consistently give feedback scores of 85% and higher.

Personal Description:
Hi, my name is Asim and have a degree in football studies. I enjoyed my education as i have grown up and am willing to share what i have learnt with others. I enjoy helping people in different topics but mostly basic maths or any lessons on the basics of using a computer.

Teaching Experience:

I mostly have learnt a lot during my time as a child in school, mostly with maths which i enjoyed such as adding subtraction. i also have knowledge in how to use the internet and also helping anyone who needs documents to be re-written or what to write etc...

Tutoring Approach:

depending on the age if i am teaching a child i will exactly pick out what they need help with and take my teaching approach step by step and also give them homework and tests each week to improve the way they think and answer questions.

with adults i would be more aware of what they need to know or how they will improve using the computer. i will show them different things on the computer to improve their knowledge of using a computer and also test them each week.

STUDENT FEEDBACK

"Umer explains things in a clear and concise manner and has made learning Physics ever so fun for me. He is punctual and continuously tailors his teaching style to suit the needs of the student he is teaching." - Kalpna, A2 Mathematics

"More often that not, students spend a considerable time studying unimportant things. Umer has the ability to channel the effort of his students in the right direction, resulting in effective exam preparation. If it wasn't for him, my son wouldn't have scored so well in his exams." - Carlos, A2 Mathematics, A2 Physics

"Umer often uses visual aids to explain abstract concepts. He takes time to understand the interests of his tutees and then uses something of their interest to explain complex phenomenon to them. This really keeps the child motivated and involved. Hats off to his teaching style." - Roma, AS Physics

"Umer has tutored me from grade 8 through to A level. He is knowledgeable, reliable, patient and always polite. He constantly maintains a positive approach and encourages me even when I perform badly. He also helps me organise my study schedule and remained a great source of motivation for me. I would blindly recommend him to anyone!". - Basa, Mathematics (grade 8, GCSE, AS, A2)

Tutoring Approach:

- The underlying factor for my success is my ability to change my style of teaching according to each student's ability

- I provide practical and lively examples to explain concepts in Maths, Physics and Chemistry

- I guide my students towards obtaining correct answers with a series of well-placed questions rather than providing them with information to `rote learn`

- Tipping exam questions is a common practice and I can do this nearer to exam period

- I am very patient and endeavour to remove the abstraction in mathematical concepts through simplification of seemingly complex procedures

- I am a strong believer in building a good relationship with my students

- I tend to focus on harder exam questions early on so that students are not overwhelmed with them nearer to exam time

- Providing students with visual representations in science works wonders in establishing their concepts

- Asking students to teach back what I taught them some weeks ago also helps in improving their communications skills besides serving as a revision tool

- Providing students a clear mental image of the process being taught when teaching sciences. For instance, explaining the concept of electric current by modelling it as a flow of water

Personal Description:
I have cisco webex software, zoom and skype, and am also DBS cleared

I am a highly experienced, enthusiastic and very versatile optical engineering senior lecturer/researcher, who gained a PhD from the School of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences, City University, London, UK in "Fibre optical temperature and strain sensors using fluorescent techniques" for measurement applications using the fluorescence generated from rare earth-doped optical fibres (e.g. Er3+, Yb3+, Tm3+ etc.). I also possess very good experience and knowledge of industry, with excellent complimentary skills gained from higher education - in particular industrial measurement, forensic analysis, quality control and statistical analysis. A BSc first degree in forensic science is combined with a further specialist MSc in engineering metrology and topped with a PhD in photonics - making for good, broad-based, multi-disciplined measurement science and analytical capabilities right across the scientific spectrum. I have a proven high degree of personal motivation, and am capable of working on my own initiative or equally as part of an effective team. In addition, I am able to communicate very well at all levels of hierarchy, with excellent skills developed in scientific report writing (journal papers, periodicals, book chapters etc.) and oral presentation (conferences, lecturing etc). I have over 50 publications to date in my field: 20 journal papers, 22 conference papers, 2 articles, 4 book chapters and other major works.

PhD thesis title:

"Fibre optic sensors based on fluorescence lifetime techniques for temperature and strain measurement"

Thesis submitted for examination for the degree of
Doctor of Philosophy
at
City University
School of Engineering

November 2002

Abstract

The author presents a thesis based upon the use of the fluorescent properties of rare earth doped materials. The thesis commences with a review of the current fibre sensor technology in the field, with special emphasis on those sensors designed for temperature and strain measurement. The use of the physical phenomena of fluorescence produced from rare earth doped optical fibre for temperature measurement is then introduced and explained in more detail, particularly with regard to utilisation of the fluorescence lifetime technique in such sensing, which is then compared to the other fluorescence-based methods for measuring temperature.

The recently discovered small strain sensitivity of the fluorescence lifetime is then introduced as a theoretical candidate for potential application to simultaneous temperature-strain sensing, using two different doped fibres in a single sensing element, and subsequently state-of-the-art temperature-strain discrimination techniques are then explored for the purposes of exploitation to dual measurement.

Results achieved from using the fluorescent lifetime approach for a range of rare earth materials are then presented, followed by further results obtained from combining the lifetime technique with Fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) for the first time. Also, the irreversible effects upon FBG performance after exposure to long-term high temperatures are explored.

Finally, there is a summary of the work presented in this thesis and the author's opinions on achievements made. Current trends in fluorescence lifetime-based sensing are discussed, both commercially and academically, together with projected work for the future.

Personal Description:
Hi,
I have a Ph.D. in computer Science, which involved combining machine learning with cyber security. I also have bachelor's and masters degree in cyber security in computer science. I have taught programming language like python during my bachelor and masters program. In addition to that i have taught cryptography, cyber security and machine learning

Teaching Experience:

I have 15 years teaching experience teaching python programming languages to Adults, undergrads and master students. I have also taught data mining using Microsoft excel , and tool such as Weka, and Python .

Tutoring Approach:

One to One - focussing on parts of the curriculum where the student is having difficulty in understanding
Create a deep understanding and confidence in answering exam questions and being able to tackle new and unfamiliar problems. The student is encouraged to think and make new connections for themselves. One-to-one personal tuition has a unique value to students because of the ability to resolve the students' personal barriers to learning in a way that lays the foundations for a deep and lasting understanding of the subject.

Depending on the student's needs and learning style I encourage students to think for themselves, using real-world examples wherever possible. I start from topics the students are comfortable with and move gradually towards more complex areas as their confidence builds. I use questions and examples to check understanding continually. I don't lecture to students or ask them to memorise things. Nor do I do the students' homework for them!

With programming language my approach is first to build confidence of the student by implementing the solution using various simple approaches like an algorithm or with a flow chart and then convert them into programming syntax. This approach not only will help you master any programming language quickly but improve ones analytical skills as well.

Personal Description:
Currently a Head of Computer Science at a prestigious independent school in Kent, with over 21 years of experience teaching GCSE and A Level Computer Science and IT. I am a confident, patient, and down-to-earth teacher who is passionate about helping students achieve their full potential.

Teaching Experience:

Alongside my teaching experience, I also work as a GCSE examiner, which gives me valuable insight into exam techniques, mark schemes, and what examiners are
looking for in high-scoring answers. This enables me to guide students effectively on how to structure and answer exam questions to maximise their marks.

Tutoring Approach:

My teaching approach is clear, supportive, and straightforward. Computer Science is a content-heavy subject with many challenging concepts, so I focus on building
understanding through structured explanations and regular practice.
I use the FACE strategy to support student progress:
● Feedback - providing constructive guidance to improve performance
● Assess - identifying strengths and areas for development
● Challenge - encouraging students to think critically and deepen understanding
● Engage - keeping lessons interactive and motivating, both online and face-to-face

My aim is to build students' confidence, strengthen their subject knowledge, and help
them achieve excellent results in their examinations.

Personal Description:
I became a teacher because I love teaching.|

I sometimes wonder why it took me so long to find my ideal career as for many years I worked in industry and the public sector as a systems librarian and website manager.

However, I now consider my multidisciplinary career to be one of my great strengths as a teacher, as I bring a wide range of experience to the classroom which enhances my teaching and grounds it in the real world.

Teaching Experience:

I have been a teacher for ten years now - I have diversified and taught three related topics: Computer Science, Information Technology and Computer Games Design. In all subjects I attempt to relate the topic to case studies and my experience at work.

I taught for 8 years at a Sixth Form College in Walthamstow, London and for 1 year in a Sixth Form College in Palma, Mallorca, Spain.

For the last year I have taught as a supply and substitute teacher - my last Computer Science role was teaching GCSE Computer Science, for 3 months at Marlborough College, Wiltshire.

I am also teaching online tuition and have done so in 2026-2027 and 2025 to present. I teach a mixture of GCSE and A Level Computer Science.

Tutoring Approach:

In my first lesson I will find the gaps in a student's knowledge. Often a student has a clear idea of what they need help on, but I also find that diagnostic assessment will help find other knowledge gaps the student is not aware of.

I will then address these knowledge gaps with specific tailor-made lessons. At the end of the lesson I use summative assessment to determine if they have improved. In future lessons I will re-test the student to see if they have retained this knowledge.

I use Google Meet and Google Documents which is shared with the student. I create individualised versions of my teaching documents for each student and they can retain access to the Documents after the lesson.

Personal Description:
Hello, my name is Marc, and I am a Worcester-based tech enthusiast specialising in providing patient, practical, one-to-one computer and device coaching for older adults and absolute beginners. My primary area of interest is community-focused digital literacy, particularly helping the older generation overcome the fear of modern technology. I want to empower people to feel confident online, shop safely, avoid scams, and comfortably use their devices.I am fully mobile, love to travel, and look forward to tutoring face-to-face within Worcester and the immediate surrounding local areas. I am highly comfortable travelling directly to clients' homes or local community hubs, allowing them to learn in the quiet, familiar environment where they actually use their devices every day. Outside of tech, I am an approachable, easy-going person who genuinely enjoys meeting new people and helping them achieve their goals.

Teaching Experience:

Rather than relying on formal teaching qualifications or rigid academic theory, my background is built entirely on extensive, real-world tech experience and a genuine passion for digital inclusion. I have spent years providing informal, hands-on technical support to older family members, neighbours, and friends.Through this informal experience, I have successfully taught absolute beginners how to comfortably master their tablets, set up and organise new smartphones, and safely navigate the internet. This background has given me deep, practical insight into the specific anxieties, frustrations, and roadblocks older generations often face when interacting with modern tech. I am highly proficient with all major daily platforms, including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, WhatsApp, Skype, online banking, grocery apps, and email management, and I know exactly how to guide someone through using them for the first time.

Tutoring Approach:

As a neurodivergent individual, I naturally view problem-solving through a unique lens. I know firsthand that everyone processes information in their own way, which makes my teaching style exceptionally patient, adaptable, and empathetic. I do not use rigid textbooks or confusing technical jargon. Instead, I break complex tasks down into small, manageable, bite-sized steps.If a concept or a task doesn't click with a student using a standard explanation, I readily adapt on the spot and use clear, everyday analogies until it makes total sense. I believe that a comfortable, low-stress environment is essential for learning, which is why I travel to my students' homes. No question is ever too small, too simple, or silly in my sessions, and we will always move entirely at the student's own preferred pace.
