I have years of experience teaching Computer Science at GCSE level in secondary schools and have a proven track record of teaching the curriculum in a creative, engaging way. I've turned nervous novices into legitimate programmers by being able to support and challenge my students as needed. I'm looking forward to being able to do the same for you!

I have a background of study in Computer Games Design at Degree level and 3D Games Modelling at Masters level. I've been able to use this to bring the Computer Science curriculum to life, demonstrating the real value of the subject and how lucrative the skills it teaches are in the real world.

Computer Science, and coding in particular, is something I truly believe everyone should be passionate about. As the world becomes more digital, skills in this area will only become more necessary and anyone who possesses these skills will have so many more doors open for them in the future.

I'm able to build relationships with my students quickly, which allows me to get a sense for what they need and how best to teach them. I'm confident that whatever level you are at, I can adapt to your needs, providing patience and support, to them you maximise your potential.

I am primarily available online in the evenings, but I am open to in-person lessons in the Canterbury area if needed. I find online learning is best for Computer Science, particularly when it comes to improving skills in coding.
