About Caolan
I’m a calm, patient and grounded person who enjoys helping others learn. I like teaching because I get genuine satisfaction from seeing things “click” for someone.
I’m naturally quite structured in how I think, which helps me explain programming clearly and break problems down into manageable steps. I try to keep sessions relaxed and focused, so people feel comfortable asking questions and working through things at their own pace.
I’m genuinely interested in programming and spend a lot of my time building projects and learning more about how systems work. It’s something I enjoy outside of teaching as well.
Outside of tech, I’ve been playing guitar for over 10 years and I’m very into music, especially rap.
I also have a strong understanding of neurodivergent learning (including autism). I adapt how I teach to suit the individual, focusing on clarity, structure, and reducing overwhelm.
I have personal experience in this area, which helps me communicate clearly and create a learning environment that feels comfortable and predictable. If there are specific preferences or things to avoid, I’m happy to work around them.

Computer Science student and backend developer. I teach programming in a clear, structured way that actually makes sense.
I’m currently in my final year of a Computer Science degree. My main languages are C++ and Python. I build real systems, including a custom C++ game engine (OpenGL, SDL3, ImGui, ECS, client/server), along with backend services, tools and web applications. I’ve also completed software engineering internships working on real-world systems.
I don’t teach by throwing information at you. I break things down so you understand what’s going on and can solve problems yourself.
I can help with:
C++ (OOP, memory, pointers, STL)
Python (beginner to backend)
Java basics
Debugging assignments and projects
Core concepts (how code actually works, not just syntax)
I’ve worked as a Python lab tutor at DCU, supporting students with different levels and learning styles.
I work particularly well with people who struggle with typical teaching methods, including neurodivergent learners (autism, ADHD). I adapt sessions to how you think, keeping things structured and reducing overwhelm.
Lessons are practical, focused, and built around what you need — whether that’s passing an exam, finishing a project, or actually understanding programming.
