Nazia Fakhruddin

I am a dual domain specialist with a Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery (MBBS) and the background in Computer Science holds the Diploma of Higher Education in Computer Science (DipHE) from University of London, currently advancing my my technical expertise by pursuing a Bachelor's of Computer Science from Open University. With a background spanning both in medicine and computer science, I am able to bridge the gap between healthcare and technology.

As an energetic and supportive educator, who specialises in demystifying complex concepts that could otherwise feel intimidating and turning them into something fun. I make it a priority to really listen and observe where each student may be struggling so we can slow down or speed up to a pace that fits them, not a "one size fits all" timeline.

Combining my medical training with extensive teaching experience. I have helped my students master complex concepts and retain key facts using Problem-Based Learning (PBL). My approach transforms dense information into intuitive, memorable frameworks for long term mastery. Ensuring students move beyond rote memorisation to true understanding.

I have over 12 years of experience of teaching specialisation in Python, JavaScript, and Scratch, blending formal pedagogy with creative project-based learning. Since I stay in tune with where each individual is at, I can pivot our projects to match their unique interests and skill levels. I’m always happy to go over a concept as many times as needed until it truly makes sense.
For me, finishing the lesson is not a goal, but making sure students understand and are able to implement programming concepts themselves is.

Beyond the classroom, I am also a skilled Web Developer proficient in HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, and Git version control.
