Thomas is a great tutor, he's extremely patient, attentive, and always gets me excited to learn outside of our lessons!

Thomas tutored me at length as I pursued my Computer Science degree. His ability to explain clearly concepts that I was learning even better than the professor at my University was what really helped smash my degree. I couldn't have done it without him. His extensive experience is obvious from his excellent subject knowledge, there was nothing he couldn't help me with. He was always extremely patient, friendly, and supportive, and I would recommend him to anyone.

Thomas was my manager at my last company, and honestly, I can’t speak highly enough of him. Not only did he lead our team, but he also genuinely mentored us in the best way possible. I was already fairly comfortable with coding, but working with Thomas took my skills to another level. The way he explained things made it so much easier to grasp, and he always had this laid-back, patient approach that made me feel comfortable asking questions, especially the dumb ones. I went from being someone who just “did the work” to feeling way more confident about owning projects and leading parts of them. If you ever get the chance to work with him, jump on it. He’s the kind of mentor who actually cares about your growth, and you’ll definitely walk away better for it.

I had the opportunity to work with Thomas while I was working on my Master’s in Software Engineering. Thomas helped me build a solid foundation in Go, AWS, and Terraform for my final project. We focused a lot on practical, hands-on work, which helped me not only understand the theory but also apply it directly to my project. The lessons were well-paced and really helped me get to grips with what I needed to do for my thesis.

Another aspect I appreciated was the emphasis on soft skills. We didn’t just talk about code, we also spent time on things like how to work within a team, communicate with stakeholders, and manage projects. Those skills, honestly, have been just as important as the technical stuff in my career following the end of my studies.

Since then, I’ve been leading a team, and I still draw on a lot of what I learned during our sessions. I feel much more confident in my ability to solve problems and work with others. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’m really grateful for the guidance I got.
