About Paul
I have spent 23 years teaching in UK schools, and after all that time the part I still love most is the moment a student who thought they could not do it realises they can. That is why I teach.
I am a qualified teacher with Qualified Teacher Status, and I have a strong track record of helping students achieve and often exceed their target grades. As a form tutor, pastoral leader and middle leader, I take professionalism and safeguarding seriously. I am reliable, well prepared for every lesson, and I create a calm, encouraging space where it is always safe to say "I do not understand".
I believe nobody is simply bad at Computer Science. Usually they have just never had it explained clearly. My job is to change that, patiently and without judgement, until it makes sense and you feel confident working on your own.
All my lessons are online, using Zoom or Google Meet, on UK time, so they fit easily around school and family life.

My approach starts with the student, not the syllabus. In our first lesson I find out exactly where you are, what you find difficult, and what you are aiming for, then I build every lesson around that. I explain things in plain English, break hard ideas into small steps, and get you practising, whether that is writing code, working through past papers, or explaining a concept back to me until it truly clicks. I am calm and patient, and I never make anyone feel behind.
Lessons are one hour by default, though I am happy to do 30 or 90 minutes if that suits you better. All lessons are online and one to one, using Zoom or Google Meet, on UK time.
I hold Qualified Teacher Status and have 23 years' experience teaching Computer Science and ICT in UK secondary schools. I have a degree in Computing, a master's degree in Education, and the CompTIA Security+ cybersecurity certification. I have taught both the AQA and OCR specifications, so I know exactly what each exam board expects.
My lessons are for GCSE and A level Computer Science students, Key Stage 3 and GCSE ICT, and adults or beginners who want to learn Python or the basics of cybersecurity. Whether you need a grade, confidence, or genuine understanding, I will meet you where you are.
