About Jack

I'm Jack, a software engineer from Hemel Hempstead. I graduated from the University of Sheffield with a First in Computer Science, and before that took A-levels in Maths (A*), Computer Science (A), Further Maths and Physics.

I now work as a founding engineer at a startup building a desktop 3D printer, where I write the software that runs it: the operating system on the machine, the phone app and the cloud behind it. Before that I founded a company and built its software platform on my own.

I've tutored programming since sixth form because I enjoy the moment something difficult suddenly makes sense to someone. Working in industry also means I can show students where the theory on their syllabus turns up in real software.

Outside of work I boulder, train judo and play guitar (Grade 8), and I once hitchhiked 5,000 km from Croatia to the Sahara. I'm DBS checked and have completed NSPCC child protection training.

I teach Computer Science from first principles. Rather than memorising definitions, we write the algorithm, trace the programme by hand and work out why it behaves the way it does, so exam questions stop being a test of memory.

How a lesson works:
- The first lesson finds exactly where things break down for you, not just where marks are being lost.
- Each lesson mixes explanation with hands-on practice: writing and debugging code together, or working through theory step by step.
- Every topic finishes on past-paper questions for your exam board, so the method holds up under exam conditions.
- Lessons are usually 60 minutes. Project and coursework sessions can run to 90 minutes.

Who the lessons are for:
- A-level Computer Science students, for both the theory papers and the NEA project. I completed the NEA myself, building a 3D graphics engine from scratch in Python, so I can help you choose, scope and document yours.
- University Computer Science students: programming, algorithms and data structures, functional programming, logic, software engineering and machine learning.
- Anyone learning to programme, from complete beginner upwards. Python is my specialism.
