I’ve been teaching IGCSE Computer Science for six years, both in the classroom and through one-to-one tuition. Programming is the part I enjoy most, particularly helping students get comfortable with Python and understand why their code works rather than simply copying solutions. I also spend plenty of lesson time on pseudocode, trace tables and the longer theory questions that can easily cost marks.

Hi! I’m a software developer who started tutoring IGCSE Computer Science alongside my day job four years ago. I like bringing bits of real programming into lessons so topics such as algorithms, data representation and networks feel less abstract. With students who find coding frustrating, I normally work through short Python problems together before gradually leaving them to tackle questions independently.

Before becoming a tutor, I worked in secondary education teaching computing to students with a wide range of abilities. I now specialise in IGCSE Computer Science and particularly enjoy teaching algorithms, Boolean logic and computer architecture. My sessions usually combine explanation with past-paper practice, as knowing the content is only half the job. Students also need to know exactly what an exam question is asking for.

I came into tutoring after working in software engineering, so I tend to explain Computer Science using examples from actual systems rather than just definitions from a textbook. I teach IGCSE students and cover everything from binary and logic gates to databases and cybersecurity. Coding lessons are quite practical. We write, test and debug programs together, with lots of attention paid to spotting errors without relying on hints.

I’ve tutored IGCSE Computer Science for five years and work particularly well with students who understand the theory but lose marks when answering exam questions. We look closely at command words, mark schemes and how much detail an answer really needs. I’m equally happy spending a whole session debugging Python. Recursion and searching algorithms are probably my favourite topics because there are several good ways to visualise them.

My background is in cybersecurity, and I began tutoring after helping younger students with programming workshops. I now teach IGCSE Computer Science one-to-one, with a particular interest in networks, security and data representation. I keep coding sessions hands-on and use small problems to introduce loops, functions and arrays before moving onto exam-style tasks. I also help students learn how to trace unfamiliar code carefully on paper.
