Regular recap and revision of topics is important for embedding theory. Last minute cramming is not effective. Coding is best taught by copying code, modifying it and then applying the new skill. I have developed a set of rules that enables students to write maintainable and readable code which is key to reach the top grade levels.

Alistair initially helped me with my A Level project. He gave me plenty of ideas that would enable me to get a high grade and gave advice throughout. I got the A I needed and am now studying Computer Science at Southampton University.
