About Chris
My approach to Excel and Microsoft Office tuition is all about learning by doing - helping you to learn new skills and techniques by getting you to try them yourself.
There are no textbooks to read or videos to watch – instead, I'll build your understanding of each topic from the ground up, explaining the purpose of the technique, demonstrating the technique and why it works step-by-step, and then getting you to have a go at doing it on your own.
You’ll be encouraged and supported to experiment and play around with the software to find out what various features do. By doing this, you’ll develop an instinctive feel for how Microsoft Office works and be able to work out how to do things on your own, so when something goes wrong or you’re unsure what to do, you don’t panic but instead resolve the situation with confidence.
Previous students have described me as patient, kind and calming, and you'll be treated in exactly the same way.
We'll go back to basics as far as we need to, and go through a topic as slowly as we need to, until it clicks, with no shame or judgement.
With my guidance and support, you'll hopefully feel like a seasoned Office user and like you know exactly what you’re doing - because you actually do.
My credentials:
- 10 years' professional experience working as a statistician for a major UK company, using Excel and Microsoft Office (including VBA) daily on huge datasets and in complex statistical analysis projects
- Experience explaining Excel and Microsoft Office techniques to senior business managers, colleagues and regulators
- First-class BSc degree in Mathematics and Statistics from the University of Warwick
- Enhanced DBS certificate and registered with the DBS Update Service

A typical session with me goes like this:
- I'll introduce a topic and explain why it’s useful and what problems it solves.
- I’ll take you through all of the relevant features and buttons and what they do, so you know exactly what’s going on.
- We’ll go through and practice the key techniques step-by-step – the focus here is very much on getting you to try these yourself, rather than me just showing you them!
- I'll get you to try some exercises to practice the techniques on your own.
- We'll go through what you've done - if you do make a mistake, I’ll explain it in a supportive way and show you how to approach the task differently next time,
With this approach, your understanding of the software and your skillset will develop naturally over time.
Your sessions will be tailored to suit your goals, focusing on the areas you most need help with and the skills you need to develop to be able to do what you want to do in Excel or Microsoft Office.
I'll also give you some practice exercises on the topic we've covered for you to try away from the session - it's important that you work hard at these, as the only way to get good at Excel or Microsoft Office is to use it.
Your first free 30-minute session will be a consultation to allow us to get to know each other and allow you to explain where you're currently at with Excel or Microsoft Office, what your goals are and what you need help with, so that I can then explain how I can help and create a plan for your sessions.

Chris has been helping me to improve my computer skills. He is really kind and very patient. My computer skills were extremely poor and Chris was both absolutely encouraging and reassuring. He did
everything to improve my confidence
and I would recommend him most
strongly as a tutor.See more recommendations
