About Abby
I believe in fostering a learning environment of curiosity, tailored feedback and pursuit of excellence.
My passion for teaching has taken various forms over the last decade; private tutoring, running adult programming workshops, leading children’s Code Clubs and volunteering as a Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) ambassador in schools.
As a professional Software Engineer with experience in the Education Technology, Finance and eCommerce sectors, I extend the joy of learning in my work to help learners excel, and have fun doing so.

I teach by the following principles:
- Curiosity: encourage exploration and experimentation over the fear of failure. Takes the form of small, experimental projects to introduce concepts and spark discussion.
- Fast, tailored feedback: adapt to the learner’s pace and style throughout. Apply cognitive load theory to support effective learning at a sustainable pace. Takes the form of longer guided projects that give a sense of achievement quickly and compound learning.
- Pursuit of excellence: provide accessible sessions whilst encouraging the learner to challenge themselves. Takes the form of end of session discussion, exam practice and stretch-goal-setting.
My tutoring curriculum focuses on computational thinking for absolute beginners, functional programming and mathematics.

Abby tutored our son during the majority of lockdown and throughout the summer. All the lessons were structured and we received weekly progress reports on what the lesson covered and how our son performed. I truly believe having this structure and Abby’s teaching style helped our son in other areas of his education as he is now more confident in learning from his mistakes and has a better attitude to learning new subjects. I would recommend Abby to anyone and everyone.
