Tutoring & lessons

I am available in the evenings and week ends for private tutoring and lessons on a variety of subjects in the Manchester area. I have designed a few Web Development courses, allowing the student to learn how to use the tools used in Web Design and Web Development in the framework of a practical project, such as the design of a small website or web application.

• Introductory Web Design and Development

  Learn how to use tools such as dreamweaver, fireworks and photoshop to design your own websites. Students at any level of skills are welcome!

• Introductory Web Application Design and Development

  This course is designed to help you understand the basic concepts behind the creation of simple but highly interactive website by using technologies such as MySQL, PHP (or Ruby on Rails), and Javascript. Some basic knowledge about web development would be beneficial for this course.

• Advanced Web Application Design and Development

  Learn to design large-scale web applications using modern MVC frameworks such as Zend Framework, CodeIgniter or Ruby on Rails to create rich web applications. I can also teach you how to connect your applications to facebook or twitter to make the most use of the features of the web 2.0!

I can also teach particular technologies or disciplines on a more modular basis. Things I have been teaching include:

• Database design and SQL
• Programming languages such as PHP, C++, Java and other
• CSS, HTML and Javascript (including JQuery or Prototype)
• French
• Introductory Sociology
