Head of Computer Science at a prestigious independent school in Kent

Advert description

Currently a Head of Computer Science at a prestigious independent school in Kent, with over 21 years of experience teaching GCSE and A-Level Computer Science and IT. I am a confident, patient, and down-to-earth teacher who is passionate about helping students achieve their full potential. Alongside my teaching experience, I also work as a GCSE examiner, which gives me valuable insight into exam techniques, mark schemes, and what examiners are looking for in high-scoring answers. This enables me to guide students effectively on how to structure and answer exam questions to maximise their marks. Tutoring Approach My teaching approach is clear, supportive, and straightforward. Computer Science is a content-heavy subject with many challenging concepts, so I focus on building understanding through structured explanations and regular practice. I use the FACE strategy to support my students progress: - Feedback – providing constructive guidance to improve performance - Assess – identifying strengths and areas for development - Challenge – encouraging students to think critically and deepen understanding - Engage – keeping lessons interactive and motivating, both online and face-to-face My aim is to build students’ confidence, strengthen their subject knowledge, and help them achieve excellent results in their examinations.

Jeff is an exceptional tutor. He tutored both of my children during Year 11; both achieved GCSE Grade 9s in the Summer 2026 exams. This was an improvement of two grades in a short period. Jeff is very professional and knowledgeable about his subject. He combines this with a very supportive approach to his lessons, explaining concepts in a way that each of my children understood. Jeff quickly identified strengths and areas for improvement. He provided very high-quality learning materials, marked exam questions, and gave feedback to my children and to me as the parent. I feel we really benefited from his role as a GCSE examiner and the insights he gave on achieving marks in the exams. He prepared both my children for the examinations and supported them throughout; they felt prepared and confident, which they otherwise would not have. I feel lucky to have found Jeff and to have had him support my children. I recommend Jeff without hesitation.

After a series of events beyond our daughter’s control, Millie found herself self-studying for her Computer Studies GCSE.  With only 4 months until her exam we hired Jeff to provide additional  support. Jeff has a very methodical approach, quickly identifying and targetting areas for improvement.  He provided concise and understandable resources and Millie was set challenging, but achievable homework.  Jeff has a very calm and professional manner and Millie enjoyed her lessons with Jeff. Jeff’s approach clearly worked.  Millie ended up with a 9.

Jeff has been instrumental in helping my child to achieve a good mark in their Gcses. They are going on to A level Computer Science and Jeff will continue to tutor them.
