About Zdravko
I’m a senior Solution Architect with 17+ years of commercial experience across RSM, Cisco, and Sky UK, working on enterprise infrastructure, cloud platforms, networking, automation, and backend systems.
My background combines software engineering, DevOps, networking, Kubernetes, Linux, and Python automation in real production environments. I’ve worked on large-scale systems, APIs, infrastructure projects, and modern cloud technologies used by global organisations.
I focus on practical, hands-on teaching rather than only theory. My goal is to help students understand how technology is actually used in the industry, improve problem-solving skills, and gain confidence through real-world examples and guided projects.
I work with beginners, university students, junior engineers, career changers, and IT professionals looking to strengthen their technical skills or prepare for interviews and real engineering roles.
Topics I teach include Python, Networking, Kubernetes, Linux, DevOps, APIs, backend development, automation, and infrastructure engineering.

About the lessons
I’m a senior Solution Architect with 17+ years of commercial experience across companies including Cisco, Sky UK, and RSM, working on enterprise infrastructure, cloud platforms, networking, automation, backend systems, and large-scale production environments.
My background combines software engineering, DevOps, Kubernetes, Linux, networking, Python automation, APIs, and infrastructure engineering. I’ve worked on real-world enterprise systems and modern cloud technologies used by global organisations, which allows me to teach students practical skills that are directly relevant to today’s industry.
My teaching approach focuses on hands-on learning, problem-solving, and understanding how technology is actually used in professional environments - not just memorising theory. I help students build confidence by working through real examples, guided projects, debugging sessions, and practical engineering scenarios.
Lessons are tailored to each student’s level and goals. Whether you are a beginner learning programming fundamentals, a university student needing support with coursework, a junior engineer preparing for interviews, or a professional looking to improve technical skills, lessons are structured around your specific needs.
A typical lesson may include:
Understanding core technical concepts step-by-step
Practical coding exercises and real-world examples
Designing and building complete projects
Debugging and improving code quality
Learning industry best practices and engineering workflows
System design and architecture fundamentals
Interview preparation and CV guidance
Hands-on work with tools and technologies used in real engineering teams
Topics I teach include:
Python Programming
Linux & Shell Scripting
Networking & Infrastructure
Kubernetes & Containers
DevOps & Automation
APIs & Backend Development
Cloud & Infrastructure Engineering
Software Engineering Principles
System Design & Architecture
I work with:
Beginners starting their technology journey
GCSE/A-Level and university students
Career changers moving into tech
Junior to mid-level engineers
IT professionals looking to strengthen practical skills
Lessons are available in 30-minute or 60-minute sessions depending on the topic and student requirements.
In addition to technical teaching, I also provide insight into how modern engineering teams operate, how hiring processes work, and what companies are looking for in real-world technical roles.
Recommendations
Recommendations are written by the tutor's friends, family, and acquaintances.
Zdravko helped me design and build my own project completely from scratch, and his guidance was invaluable throughout the entire process.
What makes him different is that he truly understands how the tech and cyber security industry works from the inside. Since he is actively involved in hiring and interviewing candidates, he knows exactly what companies are looking for nowadays and how to prepare students and professionals for real-world expectations.
He also helped me improve and structure my CV specifically for the cyber security field, giving practical advice that actually reflects current industry standards and recruitment processes.
His combination of deep technical knowledge, commercial experience, and strong educational background makes him an outstanding mentor. I highly recommend Zdravko to anyone wanting to improve their technical skills, build real projects, or successfully land a job in cyber security.Zdravko helped my daughter achieve 78% in her A-Level Computer Science exam, and we are extremely grateful for his support and guidance.
What stood out most was his real commercial and industry experience. He didn’t just teach theory — he taught her how to approach problems logically, design complete solutions, and write production-grade reports to a professional standard.
His teaching style made complex topics much easier to understand, and he always encouraged structured thinking and confidence when solving exam and coursework problems.
I highly recommend Zdravko to any student looking for high-quality Computer Science tutoring, especially for A-Level preparation and practical software development skills.See more recommendations
