About Me
Hello! Penelope a Computer and Telecommunications Engineering graduate with a strong focus on software systems, digital communication and inclusive tech education.
I also teach Cambridge IGCSE ICT (0417), so I know how to break down tricky tech topics, like coding, networks, and data handling into simple, practical steps that make sense.
I guide learners step by step, starting with clear instructions and gradually building independence.
Whether it is coding, networks, course work, exam preparation or just curious about tech works, I am here to guide you with patience, clarity, and a bit of fun. Let’s build confidence and really get you to understand the topics you are having difficulties in and how they work, not just memorize them.
I am here to make learning tech feel doable and even exciting!
My teaching style
I use the scaffold approach, starting with clear guidance and gradually giving learners more independence as their confidence grows. My lessons are practical, focused, and tailored to each learner’s level. I use real-world examples, hands-on tasks, and feedback that’s specific and easy to apply.
I don’t over-complicate things, and I make sure students feel comfortable asking questions. I focus on building real skills, independence, and results.
