Erika

Private Computer Studies / I.T. and Economics Tutor in Chipping Campden

Many years experience in a wide range of context as a lecturer and teacher. I have used a range of software and taught individuals how to apply this to the context of business. For example, I designed and initiated a new course (Computers for the Terrified) as part of a push in ICT skills amongst the older population.

Tutoring Experience

SCORM, SWOT analysis, project proposals, marketing plans, test plans and conceptual designs are just some of the hands-on skills I can teach. To this effect, I am proficient in using Microsoft products, excel and other products to conduct project planning and production. I am an advance user of Microsoft Office and have taught the European Computer Driving licence to A level. I have taken part in the process of Software Development Life cycle and used prototyping, waterfall, SCRUM to develop work with students. I have been a subject (computing) learning coach, which was part of an advanced lecturer status to cascade good practice in teaching. These skills were further developed through in-house Teacher training including the organising of meetings through the Ministry of Education in New Zealand to promote the benefits of virtual Learning Environments and provided staff training. I have been a Head and Lead for Computing and IT for 20 years and have taught a wide range of students in schools and college in the UK and New Zealand, including adult returners to education. I am able to teach Networking, Database Management with MySQL/PHP, web design, all adobe products, Python programming, VisualBasic, OCR and AQA syllabus for GCSE and A Level as well as college courses and complete revision sessions. BBC Micro:BIT, Minecraft, app development, competition entries for BAFTA young games designer and other robotics for younger students.

Tutoring Approach

My student-centred approach to teaching has allowed me to be very flexible in Course content design. Technical skills have been kept up to date. I can be technical hands on and demonstrate use of software through direct or virtual tuition. I can small group work for a bespoke price.
