About Colin

Hello! I'm Colin! I'm a great tutor and reviewer and I'd love to help you out!

- I've mentored over 300 students on Exercism-dot-org with 100% positive ratings and more than 120 testimonials (click see more below)
- I've tutored students privately and helped them get or keep jobs
- I worked hundreds of hours as a teaching assistant at Manchester and Leeds Universities. I supported hundreds of students in first and second year computer science, developed course materials and wrote and led my own session in a data science workshop for transport professionals

Some testimonials I've received:

> Very patient, very kind. Super helpful.
> Thoughtful, insightful, *extremely* knowledgeable and kind! Amazing level of mentorship.
> An excellent mentor who's ready to take as much time as is need to clarify concepts need for understanding. My code works better, and now I know why.
> Colin is very helpful and well informed. He's very generous with his reviews and provides valuable insights.
> Incredibly thoughtful, great advice, definitely improved my learning experience.
> Colin has been exceptional, as always. Incredibly happy they are part of Exercism.

I can't include a link to my testimonials here, but perhaps you can work the link out yourself from this puzzle! exercism-dot-org/profiles/cmcaine/testimonials

My passion is teaching, but I have relevant non-teaching experience, too:

- I'm a published scientist with articles in Applied Network Science; BioMedCentral and several conferences
- I've been the lead developer on a few decent-sized projects and a professional programmer for years

I deliver excellent written advice on programming or design work and I teach thoughtfully designed interactive tutorials and workshops of any length in-person or online.

Want quick and comprehensive advice on a programming, design or discrete mathematics task? Send it to me along with a list of questions and concerns that you have. I'll send you a quote and get straight into it if you're happy. No fuss. Just speedy, expert advice in a friendly, encouraging package. I'll tailor my feedback to your experience level and, if we do multiple rounds, I'll do my best to learn what kinds of explanations and teaching strategies work best for you while we iterate towards a great solution!

Want to learn something new? Complete a larger project? Get ongoing support to pass a class or overcome challenges at work? Or even change career? That's great! I've helped people achieve all of those things!

We'll start by identifying how you want to learn and setting our objectives.
Then I'll go away and have a think before proposing a learning strategy to you, and, once we're both happy with it, I'll write and deliver a bespoke plan for our first session.

Our tutorials will be interactive, not lectures. I'll introduce a concept and talk about it *with* you, not *at* you. I'll demonstrate a design or programming technique and then we'll practice it together with immediate and supportive feedback for you.

Along the way, we'll regularly check-in so that we can revise the teaching techniques, learning strategy and objectives as necessary to acheive your goals.

I have no interest in wasting your time or money with unnecessary lessons nor in retaining you as a permanent student. I want the satisfaction of seeing you meet your objectives and "graduating". I'll recommend other, cheaper resources where I think they will serve you better than 1-on-1 tutoring because I want to teach you the things that you couldn't learn better elsewhere.

I'm happy to deliver all tutorials (lessons) in-person in Manchester or online with a call and appropriate software. Tutorials can be of any length with appropriate breaks for your and my benefit if they exceed 1 hour.

I offer code review, design feedback, lesson plans and learning advice in writing or as a tutorial session and am happy to follow-up over multiple rounds.

Details

If you are from a group that is historically disadvantaged (working class, women, people of colour, queer people, religious minorities) then you can have a discount if you think you need one and you don't need to justify yourself to me.

If you are trying to learn something for a progressive/left cause (a tenants union, a liberation, labour or socialist movement etc) then you can have a discount of up to 100% if you need it, but you do need to briefly explain what your project is.

If you need a discount to access my services, please specify what you are comfortable paying.

I charge a flat rate per hour for contact time (the duration of our tutorial sessions) and preparation time (the time it takes me to design our tutorials; write lesson plans, take-home exercises, and feedback; review work and materials that you've sent me; and do any necessary research).

I will quote my maximum preparation time in advance, so there will be no unpleasant surprises, only pleasant surprises when I take less time than expected and still smash it :)
