About Me
I was born in a town called Skipton, North Yorkshire. So naturally I've a Northern UK accent. But having taught some twenty years, I typically speak slowly and enunciate clearly.I very much believe in keeping things as simple as possible, so as to aid practical application. Too much detail early on can overwhelm, and damage confidence. Once a skill has been practised a while, more detail can be added in.
In my personal life, I no live in Larne, Northern Ireland - having moved to Ireland with my wife in 2009. My hobbies include gardening and reading.

Very good and helpful
A good grasp of Maths and IT Fundamentals has become essential in many walks of life, both professional and personal.
In this very specific foundational course, designed to help those interested in a career in the IT Software field, we will learn about mathematical concepts like: Set theory, Numeral Systems (binary, decimal), and Algebra (including Boolean). These lie at the very foundation of Computer Science. Then go on to see how they are applied in Database Design and Programming concepts.
Many topics in the school curriculum have seen huge changes in recent years, none more so than Maths. Maths has seen new topics, and teaching methods. Also while the traditional Maths topics were taught in isolation, modern methods interconnects the topics to solve practical, real-life, problems.
On the course we will discuss topics like: Numeral Systems (binary, decimal), Algebra, Geometry, Probability, Set Theory and Statistics.
English is one of the most widely spoken languages in the world with approximately 1.5 billion speakers. It is the mother tongue of more than 350 million people, and the most widely used language in big business and IT.
Improve your ability to comprehend, and communicate, in this increasingly used language.
Both written, and oral, English is covered by a UK native with over twenty years teaching experience.

Tech Support for Legacy Systems and Troubleshooting ExpertsIs your printer refusing to work with your computer again? Are you stuck with a weird error that no one on the forums seems to understand? Or maybe you have an ancient device that stores priceless data, but no modern system will talk to it? That’s where I come in - call me your digital detective.
I specialize in solving the kinds of tech problems most people walk away from—legacy hardware, software compatibility issues, obscure drivers, and cryptic error messages. Whether it’s a memory leak in a 20-year-old Palm PDA or making two completely unrelated systems communicate, I’ve been there and I've fixed that.
If your setup is unique, outdated, or just plain broken, I’ll treat it like a puzzle worth solving. Tech archeology meets modern ingenuity. I’m also happy to travel and work on-site if needed—sometimes the only way to truly understand a system is to sit down with it in person.
“Legacy systems fear him. Devs envy him. Managers don’t understand him.” - one of my clients, probably.
