Information about George
My name is George, and Im a second year BSc (Hons) Computer Science student at Newcastle University. I thoroughly enjoy tutoring, and after graduation next year, I plan to undertake a PGCE with a view to a career teaching computer science. I tutor Computer Science at GCSE level, in addition to Python programming at all levels.
I averaged a First throughout the first year of my computer science degree and am currently on track to repeat this in my second year.
Im very personable and have an excellent rapport with students. Its only been a few years since I faced my own GCSEs, so I readily relate to the pressures and challenges students face in years 10 and 11.
I run online sessions via Zoom, tailoring each session to the topic(s) the student wishes to cover. However, its often helpful if the session reinforces the topic they are currently studying in class. In a typical session, we first review content and methods before applying what has been learned. Closer to the exams, the focus changes to revision and exam technique.
Ive found that some students approach me specifically for tutoring on Python, the programming language most often chosen by schools and colleges as an introduction to coding. Ive been using Python for 8 years, from KS3 through GCSE, A-Level, and now in my undergraduate studies.
Thank you for taking the time to read my bio. Im always happy to answer any questions.
Availability: I am currently available for hourly online sessions between 4.00pm and 7.00pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: Before tutoring online, I was in demand, tutoring the children of family friends through their GCSE Maths and Computer Science. Now, I thoroughly enjoy online tutoring, particularly receiving feedback from students on their improved marks/grades in homework and exams.
DBS Check: Yes

George is a great tutor, my younger brother enjoys his Computer Science lessons with him and has found them really useful. His communication with myself is also really good and always keeps me updated with important information.
