Today, coding is the language through which we build the future, the next generation of builders, innovators, and problem-solvers needs to understand this language”

I work professionally as a software engineer while teaching, which means I bring real-world experience directly into the classroom. I'm passionate about helping learners develop problem-solving skills and understand how software actually works in practice, whether they're beginners or career-switchers.
What drives my teaching is seeing the moment a learner realises they can make something. That shift from passive consumption to active creation is transformative. Whether it's a 5-year-old discovering variables in Scratch or a teenager building their first responsive website, I'm committed to making coding feel creative, achievable, and genuinely fun.

My Approach

Hands-on project-based learning
Building real, playable games and applications
Fostering curiosity and creative problem-solving

Policies

Rescheduling lessons

If you need to reschedule a lesson for any reason, please give us at least 24 hours notice by either contacting your tutor or a member of our team at hello@blueshiftcoding.com and we will do our best to move the session for you.

If your child is feeling unwell, we might be able to reschedule your lesson up to 2 hours before the lesson is supposed to start for online tuition, and up to 4 hours before the lesson is due to start for in-person tuition.

Missing a lesson

Please be aware that if you miss a lesson for any reason and do not give us at least 24 hours notice we will take this as a no-show and charge you the full rate of this session without an opportunity to reschedule, as we must compensate our tutors for their time.

FAQs

Who can I email if I have an inquiry?

Please email Ben, who is our PT team their email is ben@blueshiftcoding.com
Is my child the right age for tutoring?

We tutor children aged 5-16 years old. Each lesson is specially adapted to your child so that our tutors are able to guide them through their journey from block-based to text-based coding as they mature and progress!
How often can I have the sessions?

Our tutoring service is completely bespoke, so whether you would like one session a week or three, we'll match you with a tutor who is able to meet your needs.
What language should my child start with?

This depends on their age and experience, our general guide is: 5 year olds should start with Scratch Jr on an iPad, 6-8 year olds should start with Scratch on a computer, 8-10 year olds should start with JavaScript or Python at a basic level and 10+ should start with JavaScript or Python at a more advanced level. However this will depend on their experience, if you are unsure you can book a consultation or contact us at hello@blueshiftcoding.com, or wait until your child's trial session where their tutor can assess their ability.
