Master Cambridge AS & A Level Computer Science (9618) through structured theory, programming practice, real-world concepts, and exam-focused preparation.

About the Instructor

Welcome to A Level Computer Science!

My name is Sadia Kamran, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science with hands-on industry experience as a Software Engineer, meaning the topics we explore together are grounded in real-world practice.

I have further broadened my expertise with an MBA in Management, giving me valuable insight into how technology and business intersect — a perspective that enriches learning beyond the syllabus.

To keep my technical skills current and industry-relevant, I completed a Backend Programming Career Reboot Programme. I am also a formally trained educator, having earned an Online Teacher Training Diploma, because I believe that communicating concepts clearly is just as important as understanding them deeply.

My teaching approach focuses on:

• Concept clarity
• Real-world practical understanding
• Programming confidence
• Exam-focused preparation
• Logical problem solving

I look forward to making this an engaging and rewarding learning journey for every student.
