About Sandy
I'm a professional software engineer with 15 years of industry experience, specialising in Ruby on Rails, Python, SQL, and full-stack development. I've worked across a range of companies and projects, and throughout my career I've consistently supported junior developers and those new to coding. I enjoy helping people learn — whether it's breaking down a tough concept, guiding someone through a coding challenge, or helping them build confidence in their skills. I believe that technical knowledge is a powerful enabler, and I want to help others realise what they're capable of achieving with the right support and direction. I'm here for anyone who wants to get started with software development or take the next step from beginner or junior level. Whether you're learning for personal growth, a career change, or to strengthen your existing skills, I’ll tailor the approach to your goals and help you progress with clarity and confidence.

I’m a senior software engineer with 15 years of hands-on industry experience in Ruby on Rails, Python, SQL, and full-stack development. Over the years, I’ve mentored junior developers, supported career changers, and helped people go from zero experience to writing real, production-quality code. My tutoring style is friendly, focused, and flexible. I tailor each lesson to your level and goals — whether you're just starting out or trying to level up from junior developer to something more confident and independent. Lessons typically last between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on your preference and the topic. I focus on building a solid foundation in coding fundamentals through worked examples, interactive exercises, and open discussion. We'll look at real-world problems and practical workflows, not just toy examples — and I'll always encourage questions and critical thinking. I can also help you understand industry practices like testing, version control, and how to work in teams. Lessons are ideal for adults or older teens who want to break into software development, build confidence with code, or progress in their careers.
