While adults are still debating whether kids should use AI, they are already using it.
The question isn't "should they?" it's "how do we do it intelligently?"

In this course, your child will discover:
✓ What AI actually is: not magic, not mystery. How machines think, what they can do, what they can't
✓ How ChatGPT really works: not just "ask a question and get an answer," but why it responds that way, where it fails, when to trust it
✓ What LLMs are (Large Language Models): in language they understand, not tech jargon
✓ Create with AI: custom avatars, interactive stories, real projects using real tools
✓ Think critically about AI: Bias, privacy, creativity. What does AI do better than humans? What can't it do?
✓ Real-world applications: How AI transforms medicine, education, art, gaming, everyday life

Why this is different:
Most AI courses for kids teach "here's the tool, use it." I teach how to think about AI.
Your child will learn to see AI not as black magic or a solution to everything, but as a powerful tool with real limits.
And, more importantly: that they can control how they use it.

What they take home:
Real projects they created (custom avatar, interactive app, analysis of a real AI case study). A genuine understanding of how it works. And the ability to use AI responsibly and creatively.

Format: Online | 60–90 min sessions | Flexible, adapted to their age and pace

For curious kids asking "How does ChatGPT actually know things?"

- Creating charts, pivot tables, and dashboards
- Using Excel for budgeting, planning, or managing projects
- Data analysis and basic programming in Excel
- Preparing for Excel tests or improving job-related Excel skills

💻 Practical info

I offer one-to-one Programming tuition in Python, C, and C++, for GCSE Computer Science, A-Level Computing, and university students studying engineering, computer science, or related subjects. Lessons are available online or in person around Birmingham.

What I cover:

Python for beginners and intermediate learners
C and C++ programming
GCSE and A-Level Computer Science (all exam boards)
University coursework support, debugging help, and project guidance
Core concepts: variables, loops, functions, data structures, object-oriented programming, file handling, basic algorithms

How I teach:
I start by understanding exactly where you are — whether that's "I've never coded before" or "I'm stuck on a specific assignment." Then I build lessons around small, practical examples you can actually run and modify yourself. I'm patient with errors (everyone gets them), and I make sure you understand the why behind the code, not just how to copy it. For university students, I can also help with debugging, code reviews, and explaining tricky concepts in plain English.
If you or your child is preparing for exams, working on coursework, or just wants to finally feel comfortable with coding, I'd love to help.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B- PERSONALIZED TUTORING: LEARNING HOW TO REASON
Machine learning and artificial intelligence become much more accessible when mathematics, algorithms, Python code, data, and real-world applications are clearly connected.

My lessons help you move beyond simply copying code or using models as “black boxes.” You will learn how to define the problem correctly, prepare the data, select an appropriate algorithm, understand how it works, train and evaluate the model, diagnose errors, improve performance, and interpret results rigorously and responsibly.

Each lesson is personalized according to your current level, mathematical background, programming experience, dataset, university work, research project, interview preparation, or professional objective. We begin by identifying your existing knowledge, software environment, expected outcomes, and main conceptual or technical difficulties. We then establish a structured learning plan.

The first lesson combines a discussion of your background, objectives, and tutoring needs; an initial assessment of your current knowledge; personalized planning and organization of future sessions; and a short trial lesson to determine the most effective learning approach.

A typical session may include conceptual explanation, development of mathematical intuition, live coding, guided implementation, model evaluation, technical problem solving, and a concise summary of the next steps.

You may work with your own dataset, university assignment, research project, or professional problem, provided that confidential information is handled appropriately. I can also provide structured examples and datasets suited to your level.

My goal is not simply to help you run an algorithm. It is to help you understand why it is appropriate, how it learns from data, how to evaluate it correctly, why it may fail, and how to build a reliable, interpretable, and scientifically rigorous solution.

B- PERSONALIZED TUTORING: LEARNING HOW TO REASON
Machine learning and artificial intelligence become much more accessible when mathematics, algorithms, Python code, data, and real-world applications are clearly connected.

My lessons help you move beyond simply copying code or using models as “black boxes.” You will learn how to define the problem correctly, prepare the data, select an appropriate algorithm, understand how it works, train and evaluate the model, diagnose errors, improve performance, and interpret results rigorously and responsibly.

Each lesson is personalized according to your current level, mathematical background, programming experience, dataset, university work, research project, interview preparation, or professional objective. We begin by identifying your existing knowledge, software environment, expected outcomes, and main conceptual or technical difficulties. We then establish a structured learning plan.

The first lesson combines a discussion of your background, objectives, and tutoring needs; an initial assessment of your current knowledge; personalized planning and organization of future sessions; and a short trial lesson to determine the most effective learning approach.

A typical session may include conceptual explanation, development of mathematical intuition, live coding, guided implementation, model evaluation, technical problem solving, and a concise summary of the next steps.

You may work with your own dataset, university assignment, research project, or professional problem, provided that confidential information is handled appropriately. I can also provide structured examples and datasets suited to your level.

My goal is not simply to help you run an algorithm. It is to help you understand why it is appropriate, how it learns from data, how to evaluate it correctly, why it may fail, and how to build a reliable, interpretable, and scientifically rigorous solution.
