About Oliver
As a current PhD student studying Chemistry at the University of Cambridge, my research focuses on protein engineering, utilizing my diverse background in biology, chemistry, machine learning, and software engineering to address complex research questions. I graduated from the University of St Andrews with a first class Masters in Biochemistry, and then worked as a software engineer for a leading tech company in the Cambridge area before starting my PhD.
Within my research group, I have the responsibility of teaching undergraduate and Masters students on a variety of topics. Our group comprises individuals with diverse academic backgrounds, and I enjoy the challenge of tailoring my teaching methods to suit each student's needs.
As a PhD student at the University of Cambridge, I am expected to deliver high-quality teaching to my students. Drawing from my experience, I am adept at teaching biology, chemistry, and computing to individuals of varying levels of skill and knowledge, from beginners to those with a Masters-level education.

I offer lessons teaching Python, C++, Biology (GCSE/A-level) and Chemistry (GCSE/A-level).
My programming lessons are tailored to individuals who are new to software engineering and programming, and are seeking to establish a strong foundation of knowledge in the field. These lessons are well-suited for students studying GCSE, A-level, or pursuing a non-computer science degree at the university level, who wish to gain confidence in computational work.
I utilize the scaffolded learning technique in my teaching approach, which involves breaking down complex concepts such as Object Oriented Programming and concurrency into smaller, more manageable pieces.
As an experienced software engineer and computational biology researcher who has worked on significant projects using Python, C++, and Rust, I have developed an in-depth understanding of programming concepts and techniques. Additionally, as a self-taught software engineer with a background in Biology, I bring a unique perspective and am well-equipped to apply the lessons I have learned over many years to my teaching approach.
When working with students, my teaching methodology involves starting with simple problems to establish a solid grasp of fundamental concepts, and then progressing to more complex projects to develop a deeper understanding of programming principles. Typically, I will begin by working through straightforward exercises with my students to ensure that they have a solid grasp of the basics. From there, I gradually introduce more complex programming concepts, allowing my students to build on their existing knowledge at a pace that is comfortable for them. Ultimately, I aim to equip my students with the skills and confidence they need to tackle more advanced programming challenges independently.
I am an experienced software engineer (5+ years) who has worked on large projects using Python, C++, and Rust. Additionally, as I self taught software engineer (with a background in Biology), I am well suited to teaching by applying the lessons that I have learned over many years of learning, particularly for students who have a non-computational background.
Lessons are typically between 1 and 2 hours, however, this can vary on the needs of the tutee. It is recommended that programming lessons are 2 hours, however, this is not mandatory.
