I have many years of experience in teaching Computer Science to undergraduate, A-level, and GCSE students. I am an expert in equipping the learners with the required knowledge and understanding to succeed in the subject and achieve the desired result.

I provide help and guidance on all the components of the subject like the theory topics, programming, and practical project. Teaching different concepts and terminologies with real world examples that can be used to develop practical computing solutions.

I am also a specialist tutor for university students in Computer Science related modules to help them understand different topics and the overall syllabus content.

Arranged and delivered many programming courses at different institutes and academies to train and prepare the students to initiate and build their careers in programming and software development as well as people who want to switch their careers into programming/development.

Conducted numerous teachers training workshops for different schools and colleges when Computer Science was introduced as a new subject in schools curriculums. I have trained many teachers in computer science subjects specifically programming with Python and Java and provides help to understand specifically the AQA and OCR specifications.

I constantly seek ways to improve my teaching skills and philosophies and strive to make and deliver engaging lessons to students with varied background and knowledge on the subject.

Client Reviews

Shahid helped me understand many different concepts when it came down to the preparation for my A level computer science exams.He helps you understand in a simple and clear manner as programming was an entirely new concept to me.I would recommend anyone to take up lessons with Shahid if needed.

- Computer Science

Shahid guided me through a whole 15 marker this session. Afterwards we looked at another 15 marker example question and just reading it felt less daunting and for once seemed possible to do. Coding is becoming less of an impossible task and more exciting.

- Computer Science

I am in the process of learning how to approach the GCSE CAIE paper 2 '15 marker' with Shahid almost from scratch. I thought it would be quite a big challenge as I have never had any success with it but I am understanding code now better than I ever have. Shahid's coding explanation is easy to understand, he is patient and goes through each line of code to ensure I know what's going on. He is better than any computer science teacher I've had at school.

- Computer Science

For the first session, it went well overall. Thanks

- Computer Science

Very helpful in creating shortcuts for complicated questions!

- Coding

Today was my first class, and we covered more than two topics in one hour and I fully understood everything. Excellent knowledge and shortcuts to learn python!

Testimonials

Absolutely brilliant. My son had given up hope with his computer science lessons at school and Shahid managed to install his confidence back after only 1 lesson. We are now not dreading the GCSE exam but actually looking forward to a good grade. Highly recommend him.

Samira (Mother of pupil, A-level AQA)

Very helpful. Gave me a better understanding of Object-oriented programming, helping me better grip the core foundation to working with Java. As a beginner it can be intimidating to work on big projects, Shahid helped break things down and explained the methods behind the code. Thank you!

Marty (Computer Science IBDP)

Shahid is excellent. Our son was getting an E grade and failing in his A level, he was
completely deflated and wanted to give up the course. As a last bit of hope we
contacted Shahid to see if a tutor could get him up a grade. Wow what can I say. His
TAG Assessment Exam has gone from an ‘E’ to a ‘C’ in only month’s. He is more
confident, happier and more comfortable in the subject. 3 more months to go to the
real exam but he has made huge leaps forward. This is all down to Shahid. Big thanks

Leesa, Student's parent (Computer Science A-level AQA)

Shahid has been an excellent tutor. His programming knowledge is impressive as demonstrated by solving challenging technical problems such as complex interaction of Java, Python, and MySQL. He is up to date and also has been flexible with time. He always explains what he is programing and teaches as he goes along. Shahid is highly recommended as a Computer Science tutor. It will be difficult to find another person as knowledgeable, flexible, kind, willing to explain everything, and willing to research new up-to-date techniques to implement for various projects.

Undergraduate Computer Science Student

This was the last of my 10 lessons with Shahid. He has really helped bring me along in my machine learning journey. I started by just knowing the basics of numpy and pandas and progressed week by week to being able to build neural networks to classify the mnist dataset. Each week I got activities to complete at home to reinforce what I had learned in the lesson. We covered many different machine learning algorithms and their uses. Shahid is a great teacher

“I am a long time security engineer with an immense frustration with the inability to script. Read a good few Python books . Got the concept. Just couldn’t code. Lead to a lot of frustration . I wen to Shahid’s class . He was able to teach with exercise that made the coding straight forward. Simple examples which got the concept across . Once you get the concept then your’e off. Well one Shahid, excellent course , excellently prepared and delivered. Can’t wait for the advanced one.”
