About Matthew

I'm a fully qualified Computer Science & ICT Teacher with 18 years of experience of working in an independent SEMH school for 11-16 year old boys. I've now moved on to pursue new challenges and opportunities, such as this, which I've been doing successfully for nearly 6 years. However, during my time at the school, I was a Senior Teacher, Head of Department for Computer Science & ICT, Supervisor, Student Teacher Mentor, Head of House, ICT Coordinator, and an IT Technician, which included some Network and Systems Administration. I have also done tutoring in various ways, such as from my home, at a tutoring company's premises, and online - both live and on-demand, in both Computer Science and Maths. As a consequence of the lockdown, I now also have experience of teaching online from home. I used Zoom to provide live one-to-one video lessons, as well as support and feedback sessions. I also provided on-demand teaching, using a Learning Management System (LMS) called Canvas, which enabled me to create, set, receive, and mark assignments, as well as make announcements, create and moderate chat rooms, and give students feedback and support when necessary, using various methods such as recorded video, live video, comments and messages. I currently have a particular interest in teaching Computer Programming (Coding), and in this capacity, I've used software such as Python, GameMaker, Scratch, SQL, MIT App Inventor, and the BBC Micro:bit hardware. I'm pleased to be able to say that, in an attempt to inspire my students, I published a game app, called 'One Lap Reloaded', which is available on Android and iOS via the Google Play Store and Apple's App Store. I am even more pleased to say that I thought-up, designed, programmed (coded), created and published the app, completely by myself. Although I did involve my students every step of the way, as testers, idea providers, and advertisers, which hopefully inspired them even more. I have an excellent ability to create a fairly quick rapport with students, through being easy-going, talkative, engaging, supportive, understanding, passionate about my subject(s), pleasant, polite and humorous - in my opinion anyway! I also have interests such as sport, gaming, science, comedy, music and movies, which can help deliver teaching objectives, build connections and start conversations.

I will provide support to students outside of tutoring sessions, when necessary, using Email and Zoom. I like to use a range of online resources, including screen sharing, coding puzzle sites, my own Kahoot quizzes, instructional videos, programming software and interactive revision sites, while providing my complete support throughout. These tools make my lessons fun, stimulating, engaging and challenging, which achieves much better results. I base my teaching on developing a quick rapport with students, through being easy-going, talkative, engaging, supportive, understanding, passionate about my subject(s), pleasant, polite and humorous - in my opinion anyway! I also have interests such as sport, gaming, science, comedy, music and movies, which can help deliver teaching objectives, build connections and start conversations. I have years of experience at being able to pitch lessons at the right level for each individual student, ensuring that work is both challenging and achievable.
