About Caolan

I’m a calm, patient and grounded person who enjoys helping others learn. I like teaching because I get genuine satisfaction from seeing things “click” for someone.

I’m naturally quite structured in how I think, which helps me explain programming clearly and break problems down into manageable steps. I try to keep sessions relaxed and focused, so people feel comfortable asking questions and working through things at their own pace.

I’m genuinely interested in programming and spend a lot of my time building projects and learning more about how systems work. It’s something I enjoy outside of teaching as well.

Outside of tech, I’ve been playing guitar for over 10 years and I’m very into music, especially rap.

I also have a strong understanding of neurodivergent learning (including autism). I adapt how I teach to suit the individual, focusing on clarity, structure, and reducing overwhelm.

I have personal experience in this area, which helps me communicate clearly and create a learning environment that feels comfortable and predictable. If there are specific preferences or things to avoid, I’m happy to work around them.

About the lesson

Computer Science student and backend developer. I teach programming in a clear, structured way that actually makes sense.

I’m currently in my final year of a Computer Science degree. My main languages are C++ and Python. I build real systems, including a custom C++ game engine (OpenGL, SDL3, ImGui, ECS, client/server), along with backend services, tools and web applications. I’ve also completed software engineering internships working on real-world systems.

I don’t teach by throwing information at you. I break things down so you understand what’s going on and can solve problems yourself.

I can help with:

C++ (OOP, memory, pointers, STL)
Python (beginner to backend)
Java basics
Debugging assignments and projects
Core concepts (how code actually works, not just syntax)

I’ve worked as a Python lab tutor at DCU, supporting students with different levels and learning styles.

I work particularly well with people who struggle with typical teaching methods, including neurodivergent learners (autism, ADHD). I adapt sessions to how you think, keeping things structured and reducing overwhelm.

Lessons are practical, focused, and built around what you need — whether that’s passing an exam, finishing a project, or actually understanding programming.
