About Waseem
Hello! I’m a professional software engineer based in Edinburgh, currently working in the tech industry. I am passionate about helping students understand computer science and develop strong programming skills.
I graduated from Cairo University, where I ranked 6th in my class. During my time at university, I also worked as a Teaching Assistant, supporting students in programming courses and helping them understand key computer science concepts.
Interestingly, when I first started studying computer science, I actually struggled and didn’t enjoy programming at all because many of the concepts felt confusing and abstract. However, once I truly understood the underlying logic and problem-solving approach, everything started to make sense. From that moment, I developed a real passion for the field and went on to excel both academically and in the software industry.
Because I have personally experienced that learning curve, I understand the challenges many students face. My goal is to help students move from confusion to confidence by explaining concepts in a clear, practical, and structured way.
Whether you need help with university coursework, programming assignments, algorithms, or learning coding from scratch, I will guide you step-by-step to reach your goals.
Feel free to reach out if you’d like help with your coursework or want to improve your programming skills!

Teaching Methodology
I am a professional software engineer working at a big tech company in Edinburgh, and my goal is to help students truly understand computer science concepts rather than just memorising solutions.
My teaching approach is practical and structured. I break down complex topics into simple steps and focus on building strong foundations in programming, algorithms, and problem-solving. I usually combine:
• Concept explanations with real-world examples from industry
• Guided coding exercises
• Help with assignments, coursework, and exam preparation
• Debugging and code review to improve programming skills
I encourage students to think like engineers and develop the confidence to solve problems independently.
Lesson Structure
Typical lessons last 60 minutes, although longer sessions can be arranged if needed. A normal session includes:
1. Reviewing the student’s current problem or topic
2. Explaining the key concepts clearly
3. Working through examples or coding exercises together
4. Providing guidance for practice or coursework
Experience
I am a professional software engineer working in the tech industry in Edinburgh, with strong experience in programming, software development, and computer science fundamentals.
Before working in industry, I served as a Teaching Assistant at Cairo University, where I supported students in understanding core computer science concepts, assisted with coursework, and helped guide them through programming assignments and problem-solving exercises.
During my studies at Cairo University, I graduated 6th in my class, reflecting a strong academic foundation in computer science and software engineering.
My background in both industry and academic teaching allows me to explain complex topics clearly and help students bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and real-world software development.
Who My Lessons Are For
My lessons are suitable for:
• University students studying Computer Science or Software Engineering
• Students needing help with programming assignments
• Beginners who want to learn programming from scratch
I can help with a wide range of subjects including programming, algorithms, data structures, and general computer science topics.
