About Alan
I have a Bachelor of Education in Mathematics and Computer Science and I've taught in international schools around the world for 15 years including the International School Manila, the American School of Madrid and Koç High School in Istanbul. Before qualifying as a maths and computer science teacher, I taught English language learners in Taiwan for three years. Combined with my experience in international schools, I have a lot of experience teaching students whose second or third language is English. I started out my career as a software developer and I also taught IB level Computer Science so I tutor computer science and I have a lot of work and teaching experience with Java, Visual Basic, SQL and Python. If you are looking for help with computer science, I can help you with GCSE and A level programming courses.

My goal is to understand where a student is at and then help them make a plan to achieve their goals. I taught mathematics and computer science in international schools for 12 years and I've tutored students around the world for 5 years in GCSE, A levels, IB and the Canadian and American curricula. I'm a qualified maths and computer science teacher in England and Wales as well as Canada

Excellent! Very clear explanations - thank you
- Eleri was very polite and generally attentive.Alan's response :
I may be wrong, but my impression that she was attending the tutoring session more for her mom than out of her own desire for help. I would have liked to see her be more proactive in her learning and taking charge.
There were a lot of levels of complexity in our lesson and I believe that Eleri would have benefited by asking more questions when she didn't understanding something. During our short time, I was able to give some formative assessment and Eleri demonstrated that she understood some of the concepts while also not understanding others. To achieve the next level of success, she would benefit by constantly self-assessing her own learning and challenging herself to find a way to fill in the gaps of whatever she doesn't understand.
I hope that Eleri is able to overcome whatever is holding her back in her computer science class at school because the field of computer science is in desperate need of more women to lead it into a better future.
