Whether you are preparing for GCSEs, A-Levels, university assignments, or seeking additional support in STEM subjects, I would be delighted to help you achieve your full potential.

Teaching Experience:
I have over eight years of teaching experience across secondary, further education, and higher education settings. Throughout my career, I have taught students from Year 7 through to university level, supporting learners with a wide range of abilities, backgrounds, and learning needs.

My teaching experience covers Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Business Studies, Computer Science, Information Technology, Programming, Data Analysis, Artificial Intelligence, and Software Development. I have successfully prepared students for GCSE, IGCSE, A-Level, BTEC, T Level, HNC, HND, and undergraduate qualifications across the AQA, OCR, and Pearson Edexcel examination boards.

I currently work as a Computer Science and Digital Technology Lecturer at a college in Wigan, where I teach Level 2 and Level 3 learners, as well as Higher National students. My responsibilities include lesson planning, curriculum development, assessment and feedback, student progress monitoring, and preparing learners for examinations, coursework, and industry-focused projects.

In addition to my classroom teaching, I have extensive experience providing one-to-one and small-group tuition. I have helped students improve their confidence, develop effective study skills, strengthen exam technique, and achieve higher grades in STEM subjects.

My teaching approach focuses on making complex topics easy to understand through clear explanations, practical examples, structured resources, and personalised support tailored to each learner's individual needs.

Tutoring Approach:
Every student learns differently, and I tailor my lessons to suit each learner's individual needs, strengths, and learning style. My aim is to build confidence, develop subject knowledge, and help students achieve their academic goals through clear explanations and structured learning.

I specialise in breaking down complex topics into simple, easy-to-understand steps, helping students gain confidence in areas they may previously have found challenging. Whether a learner is aiming to improve their understanding, prepare for examinations, or achieve higher grades, I provide patient and supportive guidance throughout the process.

My lessons are highly interactive and designed to encourage active participation, critical thinking, and problem-solving. I regularly check understanding throughout each session to ensure students remain engaged and make consistent progress.

To support learning, I provide a wide range of carefully selected resources, including lesson notes, PowerPoint presentations, knowledge organisers, exam techniques, specification guidance, past papers, practice questions, and marking scheme analysis. This enables students to develop both subject knowledge and examination skills.

I believe that confidence is the foundation of academic success. My goal is not only to help students achieve excellent results but also to develop independent learners who feel motivated, capable, and prepared for future challenges.

In addition to one-to-one tuition, I also offer small-group sessions where learners can benefit from collaborative learning and peer discussion in a supportive environment. Group tuition is available for KS3 Maths and Triple Science (£20 per student for a 2-hour session) and KS4 GCSE Maths, Triple Science, and Computer Science (£25 per student for a 2-hour session). A minimum of five students is required for group classes.

Subjects

Personal Description:
I have over 15 years of teaching and tutoring experience in both university modules and A-levels for all major exam boards, specializing in computer science, programming, mathematics, and economics. This extensive experience includes both in-person and online teaching, encompassing one-on-one tutoring as well as small group sessions.

Throughout my career, I have maintained high success rates, and tutoring is my passion. My teaching approach is individualized, as I believe every student has a unique learning style. I adapt my methods to ensure the learning process is efficient and engaging for each student. Many of my students have secured places at Oxbridge and other top universities in the UK.

Over the years, I have accumulated and developed a substantial collection of learning materials and exercises in the aforementioned subjects. I share these resources with my students to help them master the material and excel in their exams. Many of these materials and exercises have been custom-developed by me to provide individualized support whenever the available textbooks and standard exercises are insufficient. Additionally, I regularly administer written tests to identify gaps and areas for improvement, which also help students prepare more effectively for their exams.

As a tutor, I am motivated, friendly, patient, and open-minded. My strong communication, problem-solving, and analytical skills allow me to connect with my students and help them overcome challenges. My lessons are organized in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Instead of simply reiterating textbook content or going over available exercises, I focus on explaining and emphasizing core concepts, identifying any gaps or misconceptions the student may have. I create an interactive environment where students can develop their critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Furthermore, I teach my students strategies for solving problems quickly, which is crucial in time-constrained exams. I also guide them in selecting the most appropriate methods and techniques for different problems, enabling them to perform well by quickly addressing the core of each problem without wasting time on less effective approaches.

Overall, my approach to working with a student is as follows: First, I consider the specifications provided by the exam board for the specific subject or module. Next, I discuss with the students/parents to identify any special needs, requirements, and preferences that need to be taken into account. Together, we develop a suitable teaching plan and identify appropriate teaching and learning resources. This teaching plan typically includes regular homework exercises for the student to study independently between tutoring sessions, reinforcing the knowledge and skills acquired during our time together. This approach makes the tutoring sessions much more effective, allowing us to focus specifically on the student's needs rather than spending time on concepts they can understand independently through textbooks or worked examples. I always aim to provide the best value for money, ensuring that even a limited or infrequent number of sessions can significantly improve the student's understanding of the subject and their performance in exams. However, I also ensure availability for as many sessions as needed, with many students opting for several sessions per week or even daily sessions when exam dates are approaching.

Teaching Experience:
My educational background includes undergraduate and PhD degrees in Computer Engineering from the University of Patras (Greece). I have worked as a postdoctoral researcher at prestigious universities such as Cambridge, Surrey, and Essex. Additionally, I hold a teaching qualification for Higher Education from the University of York. I have also taught undergraduate and postgraduate modules at the Universities of York, Warwick, and London in the aforementioned areas.

I have over ten years of experience working on industry- and government-funded R&D projects related to next-generation computing and Internet technologies, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence. This experience has provided me with invaluable insights into advanced computing systems and electronics, novel techniques for computer networking and communications, as well as practical skills and knowledge in protecting systems and networks from cybersecurity threats. Furthermore, I have acquired strong programming skills across a wide range of programming languages and mathematical modeling techniques.

Tutoring Approach:
Currently, in addition to tutoring A-level and university students, I also deliver specialized training programs and masterclasses to professionals in organizations worldwide. I assist university graduates in preparing for industry-required professional certificates. Additionally, I provide consultancy services to both start-ups and established companies within my areas of expertise.

Feel free to reach out to me to discuss your requirements. I am eager to help and support students in achieving their goals. Before booking any lessons via the system, please make sure to contact me first, as my availability shown on the system may not always be up to date.

Personal Description:
With over 10 years education experience, I have taught in a variety of schools up to and including A Level computer science. Based in Leeds, I have led multiple subject areas with highly successful student outcomes. Since April 2019, I have had the privilege of leading Secondary Computing Education for the National Centre for Computing, across England.

Since starting my teaching career in 2012, I have been Curriculum Leader of a mixture of subjects including Computer Science, ICT, Business and Health & Social Care. Under my leadership, GCSE Computing results in 2017 were among the highest performing in Leeds and in the top 8% of the UK (BCS / Roehampton Computing Report, 2018).

From 2017 - 2019 I led a school-centred teacher training programme for secondary computing teachers in Leeds, this involved training the next generation of computing teachers and supporting them throughout their teacher training year.

I joined the National Centre for Computing Education as the Secondary Education Lead in April 2019, leading secondary teacher training to upskill computing teachers across England, ensuring the next generation of students receive a world class computing education.

Teaching Experience:
I have taught in schools in Leeds since 2012, my first teaching role included the introduction and leadership of GCSE Computing, the first cohort to complete this GCSE were one of the highest performing cohorts in Leeds and within the top 8% of schools across the country (Source: BCS, Roehampton Computing Report, 2018). This role also included the delivery of OCR Cambridge Nationals in ICT and iMedia - 100% of students achieved a level 2 qualification.

My second school involved me expanding my leadership to lead computing, computer science, business and health and social care. Results in this school increased rapidly, upon my arrival only 8% of students studying towards the ICT CiDA qualification had achieved a grade A*-C on their examined unit, under my leadership this rose to 76% within 9 weeks and to 100% at the end of the qualification. Student progress measures showed students achieved +2.7 grades higher compared to similar students across the country (GCSE results, 2019). Likewise, significant improvements were made in computer science, results also rose from 36% grade 9-4 to 98% grade 9-4 within one year, student progress measures showed students performed +1.9 grades higher compared to similar students across the country (GCSE results, 2019).

Between 2017 & 2019, I led a school-centred initial teacher training (SCITT) programme for secondary computing teachers in Leeds, this involved training the next generation of computing teachers and supporting them throughout their teacher training year. This process also included running a subject knowledge enhancement programme and running several 'Computing Subject Days' to develop pedagogical understanding in the subject.

In April 2019, I joined the National Centre for Computing Education, a new initiative, funded by the Department For Education, introduced in 2019 to support teachers with subject knowledge and the confidence to teach computing. I currently lead the secondary computing education strategy, leading on secondary teacher training, Isaac Computer Science, quality assurance, teacher residentials and more.

I am currently Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) for Isaac Computer Science.

Tutoring Approach:
I believe in using a variety of teaching methods to suit the needs of the student to ensure each individual person can succeed. I believe that all students deserve to achieve and that is accomplished through a variety of styles alongside regular monitoring and assessment but also through a positive, professional manner.

Subjects

Personal Description:
I have been tutoring students across London in all aspects of Computing since 2015. Having a PhD and a 1st Class Degree in Computer Science from Sheffield University, I have a great deal of experience in everything from general programming to academic research. I worked for a decade as an academic at both Sheffield and Surrey Universities. I have helped many students through their studies at GCSE and A-level, teaching AQA, OCR and CIE syllabuses. I am also happy to teach adult learners who are looking to expand their skillset.

For A-level and GCSE students it is worth beginning tuition as soon as possible, not just in the weeks running up to exams (although this can still help). This is particularly important for Computer Science because students should be learning a programming language in parallel with their studies. Some exam boards require a programming project as coursework, and it is important that this is completed as soon as possible to leave room for exam preparation.

I am happy to help degree students with theory and learning programming, but enquiries asking for help with an assignment for hand in next week are unlikely to be followed up.

I teach:

Programming - C, C++, C#, Java, Javascri pt, Python, Lua, php
Web Technology - HTML, CSS
Computing Theory - Data Structures, Algorithms, Vectors and Matrix Algebra, Computer Graphics, Animation

This is not an exhaustive list, so please do contact me even if your subject is not listed here.

I conduct lessons both in person, and remotely.

Teaching Experience:
I have taught seminars, graded coursework, helped design courses at degree level, and have also tutored students to PhD level.

I have been teaching students online mostly since the beginning of the pandemic. Many students are used to this type of teaching now, and the tools available have made it much more viable. Whilst teaching in person is, in my opinion, superior, the convenience of audio/video calls and the ability to reach more students from more varied backgrounds has been invaluable.

Tutoring Approach:
I believe that learning only happens by doing. Tailoring a course to the students individual requirements and the pace at which they can work.

Subjects

Personal Description:
I'm a certified teacher working as a tutor for students in Norfolk and across the UK. In university I completed a specialist in psychology, while also minoring in English literature. I also completed my teachers' training, specialising in English, as well as excelling in teaching maths and technology. Here is a list of the subjects and levels I tutor:

Psychology for GCSE and A-Level.
English for Key Stages 1-3 and GCSE.
Maths for Key Stages 1-3 and GCSE
Computer Programming for all ages.

I mainly focus on online tuition, delivered using Skype or other platforms. While most of my online students are in KS3, GCSE and A-Level (and degree students for psychology), this option can work for students who are in year 4 and above, so long as they are familiar with the basics of using computers. For maths, I make use of Idroo, an online whiteboard which is useful for practicing questions. For computing, I am able to assist with programs relevant to both Microsoft Windows and Chromebook.

Please see the "Subject Taught" section below for rates per subject and level.

Also, don`t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Teaching Experience:
I started working as a tutor in London and Surrey in 2013/2014, mainly for students who had been excluded from school. In 2015 I relocated and began tutoring private clients in East Anglia. In 2016 I started offering online tuition, first using Skype, and now with Zoom. I now tutor virtually all of my students online, though I will occasionally tutor at a student's home when my schedule permits.

Tutoring Approach:
For younger students, I assess them on their first appointment to see where their strengths and weaknesses are. I then focus the lessons on the areas they need improvement in, using an individualized approach that is suitable for that particular student. I also help students prepare for examinations, such as the GCSE; in this case I mostly focus on giving them tasks and questions that resemble what they will face on their tests.

For A-level and degree students, I'm usually asked to provide assistance with a specific task. For example, I've helped my students construct outlines in order to structure their essays, answer typical questions that will come up on their exams, and proof read their essays to check content, clarity and grammar. I can also clarify theories that are difficult to understand and help students generate ideas for their thesis.

Subjects

Personal Description:
I am a very calm and disciplined person who has so much passion for teaching and helping people grow to discover their intellectual capabilities.

I found it very easy working with people regardless of their age, race and gender.

Teaching Experience:
During my undergraduate days, I always give tutorial classes to students who need assistance in mathematics, Computer/IT courses, and business-related courses.

I lectured for a year in a higher Institution after graduating from the university, where I taught mathematics and Computer studies.

I have also taught students in various levels of Mathematics, ICT and Business Administration.

I'm currently teaching business-related courses at Further and Higher education levels.

Tutoring Approach:
My Approach to tutoring depends on the student level of understanding. I always try to understand my students' academic ability, help them improve from there, and make it both effective and enjoyable. This method has helped both my students and myself in the past because they are doing well in their various fields of study.

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.

Subjects

Personal Description:
My name is Margaret! I am a Software Engineer, and have recently graduated with a first class honours in MEng Software Engineering. My degree also included a placement in a locally-based software engineering company, and now I work full time as a software engineer in Belfast.
I have previously completed a HND in Computing and Systems Development with distinctions in every module, and achieved A* grades in GCSE and A level ICT, using technologies such Microsoft Access, Netbeans and Visual Studio. I have experience developing in a number of programming languages, including Go, TypeScript, Python, Java, C#, JavaScript, HTML, CSS and SQL. I am also an ISTQB certified tester with a Foundation Level (CTFL) qualification. I have experience with both coursework and theoretical aspects of these courses and would be more than happy to help!

Teaching Experience:
-As a high-performing student at Queen's University Belfast, I have been employed as an academic demonstrator. This involved supporting students during practical sessions and answers questions via email.
-During my time at Queen's University Belfast, I was involved with the School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EEECS) as a peer mentor, providing help primarily to first and second years studying Computer Science related degrees.
-Hosted a 'Code Club' in Holy Rosary Primary School for the academic year 2016/2017, teaching children the fundamentals of programming through Scratch
-Experience delivering tuition to individuals and small groups through workshops delivered in the Apple Store, Victoria Square
-Delivered a series of Apple "Summer Camps" to children aged between 8-13 through the summer of 2015.
-Experience delivering coding classes and talks to peers.
-Tutored peers through A Levels and HND in regards to coursework and theory work.

Tutoring Approach:
This depends on whether the student needs support with the practical (coursework) side or the theory. With the theory, I often look through past papers with the student to establish common questions and work to get the most succinct and correct answer. With practical problems I would often set a smaller, simpler challenge related to the problem which can help the student understand, and then apply to their own coursework. I aim to make the students complete the challenges themselves as much as possible - it is not my intention to create solutions for coursework/assignments for students to use as their own. All work is done as a collaboration between myself and the student.

Please note that I cannot assist University students with the creation of their final year projects.

Personal Description:
I have been teaching in Scotland for approximately 17 years now. I have been involved in a number of SQA and National Projects including tasks such as writing, marking and developing the course.

Teaching Experience:
In my current role, I have full responsibility of delivering the new qualifications from S1 BGE through to Advanced Higher Computing Science. I have made the changes to our course and continue to develop these and the changes have been seamless in ensuring a smooth transition into the National Qualifications. I have enhanced my knowledge at National 4 and 5 by not only delivering these courses from the outset but also attending understanding standards events, marking the assignments and also the exam from the 2017/2018 academic year to present. I am also now an item writer for the National 5 course. I have been delivering the higher computing science course explicitly for the last two academic years and the advanced higher computing science course for this year whilst implementing the changes at all of the appropriate levels. I am also an external verifier for SQA and I am leading the rollout of digital learning within my school. In previous posts, I have led the subject forward towards a full implementation of the Curriculum for Excellence Qualifications. I have provided clarification, support and direction whilst providing opportunities for other colleaues to develop and progress their own professional skills and abilities. I have pre-empted problem areas and suggested solutions to improve attainment results. I have sourced software and uploaded any existing materials onto GLOW. I work closely with Faculty Management, School Technicians, LA Colleagues and fellow CS teachers nationally. I work with working groups in school and LA to help with the transition from P7-S1 and also to help embed the our use of personal support and the house system.

I use effectively the restorative approach in my practice as a means of adopting a variety of approaches in meeting pupils needs. Through the demands over the last few academic years, I have shown that I am able to work under pressure and meet challenging deadlines particularly in the area of curriculum development.

Positive relationships are central in all I do whether that is with parents, carers, pupils, partners, fellow teachers and support staff alike. I am informed and keep up with current developments in education such as Curriculum for Excellence, Additional Support Needs, Child Protection and GIRFEC.

I have taught S1 - 3 ICT, Standard Grade Computing, Intermediate 1 and 2, Advanced Higher Computing along with PC Passport and MIE. I have developed and implemented the NPA Games Developement at Levels 4 and 5 and introduced two enrichment courses at S2/3 levels in Multimedia and Programming respectively.

Since then I have gained experience in the old Higher and Advanced Higher Computing courses along with the same qualifications in Information Systems. Currently, I have introduced S1, S2 and S3 Computing Science to our list of courses along with National 4 and National 5 Computing Science, New Higher Computing Science, Young Enterprise. Various Business course have been taught since I qualified. I have taught various courses in the Computing Science disciplines at different levels as well as other Business courses. These have all been taught with the correct amount of preparation and correction. To achieve successful learning and teaching I have made use of existing materials and have supplemented these with presentations and my own resources and activities. Providing new and exciting opportunities, differentiating lessons to suit the individual pupils allow me to fully engage with all of the pupils, making my lessons fully inclusive. I am currently running a pilot in the effective use of Pupil Profiles to help pupils evaluate their skills in specific curriculum projects.

Cooperative skills, team contributions, personal organisation, reflective practice, building confidence and sharing best practice, Learning and Teaching and Behaviour Management. I undertake the organisation and running of extra curricular clubs i.e. coding clubs, sports clubs and revisional study sessions. I regularly undertake curriculum and personal development.
I am currently looking at working with the IT co-ordinator to introduce the Barefoot Computing initiative into FIFE to give my primary colleagues the required skills to deliver some of the Computing Science Outcomes and Experiences. I am also looking to bring in the BBC Microbits ( a brand new product developed by BBC to aid coding) into part of our curriculum to add value and excitment into our junior courses. I am also discussing with the University of Abertay, Dundee ways of bridging the gaps between school curriculums and Further Education.

I am currently implementing the NPA structure and offering training to Local Authority staff on the course.

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.
