About Hamish

Design Engineering student at Imperial College London Qualifications: A-Level Computer Science (A*): My NEA (A*) was a graphing calculator for complex functions on the complex plane. EPQ (A*): A simulator for 3D molecular structure. Programming Experience: 6 years C# 2 years VB 1 year Python 1 year SQL Simple websites (HTML, CSS) Enhanced DBS Checked I have learnt to code from a young age through doing various projects, so I am a firm believer in this style of learning. I have also seen that it is very possible for young teenagers to become fluent in a programming language, as well as adults. I often attempted projects that I then lacked the knowledge to complete, which placed me on a consistently steep learning curve. There has never once been an occasion where my code has run the first time or I've never had to look up advice from the internet. In fact, I found that these are the most common things you'll be doing as a programmer, and they are things you ought to get good at. With experience you find that beyond just the programming, the real skills to have are troubleshooting and clearly defining what you want. I will teach you a programming language, and then I will teach some of these other skills so that you are able to confidently start your own journey as a developer.

About the lesson

Target Audience: Anyone who wants to learn to code well, beginner to intermediate. Teaching Style: - I will try to embed my explanations into relevant situations. - I will frequently ask questions so the pupil can come closer to discovering the content themselves. This also helps me notice misunderstandings. - If a client does not understand, I will not just repeat myself: I will try to clarify or explain differently. I will use short-burst exercises, and I will only explain how to do something to the extent that the client cannot do it on their own. Long Term: After completing the basics, I will give the client projects to do that interest them. I believe that the best way to understand something is in the context of an objective. I will spend lesson time explaining concepts or helping to troubleshoot, but I can help with smaller programming problems via email. Lesson Timings: I will try to keep lessons to an hour, but I am happy to go on for up to a whole afternoon if that is agreed upon. I will give prior notice if I am to become unavailable for any period of time. I will normally be available from 7pm, but I am willing to work outside of those hours with prior notice.
