Regular sessions build confidence and grades. Most students see measurable improvement within a few sessions.

Common questions

How are lessons delivered?

All lessons are online via Zoom with screen sharing. You'll need a computer or laptop — a tablet can work for theory but isn't ideal for coding sessions.

Which exam boards do you cover?

AQA, OCR, Cambridge International, Eduqas, and Edexcel at GCSE. AQA, OCR, and Cambridge at A Level. I also have experience with the OCR Entry Level Computer Science qualification.

Do you help with NEA coursework?

Yes. NEA support is one of the areas I specialise in. Students regularly move up multiple mark bands with targeted coursework sessions.

What if I'm a complete beginner?

Completely fine. I always start from your current capability level — there's no assumed knowledge. Many students start with no prior programming experience.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends on your goals and current level. Most students book weekly sessions in the run-up to exams, or fortnightly throughout the year. We'll discuss what suits you in the first session.
