ABOUT ME
Experienced teacher of programming and computer science, ex-developer
Experienced teacher of programming and computer science, ex-developer

After a long career in teaching programming and general computing, I have recently started a community interest company with a mission to provide work experience for young people wanting to enter a career in software development. futureCodersSE runs sofware projects and places students in project teams. The company is in its very early stages and needs time to get established, to prove the concept and to build the evidence needed to tender for skills work. In the meantime, I need to earn a wage and so I am looking for freelance work in the areas where my expertise lies. I can teach a variety of programming languages from basics but my recent experience is with Javascript and Java. Leading futureCodersSE projects has given me experience in cloud technologies.

My code sharing profiles, unfortunately, do not reflect my experience. I haven't engaged but I strongly encourage futureCodersSE students to share their work and to engage with the developer community.
