Private Programming Lessons
About Me
Hi, my name's Ammar T and I teach programming, I'd been teaching for about 6 months when I made this thread and I'd just started to get the hang of how to approach people in a teaching environment; keeping the lessons engaging both educationally and providing an ample amount of amusement within the lessons. I did this by utilising a fairly informal manner of speech when in the lessons to allow us to engage on a more personal basis which helps to augment the learning experience. Now that I've been doing this for more than 4 years, I've learnt a lot more alongside my students about programming as well as about the way to approach my lessons.

Other than that I'm from the UK so time-zoning may be an issue for students from Australia and other such regions where weekend lessons would be the best option.


What I Teach
I teach a multitude of high-level programming languages such as Java, C++, C# and Python; in each of these languages I have over 5 years of experience minimum. I do teach the Bukkit API but if basic Java hasn't been covered yet we will go over that before we start on it to avoid confusion (Personal experience). I can also teach game development in Java using LibGDX from which we can port to HTML5/JS, PC/Mac/Linux and Android.

Lessons
Lessons are conducted over Skype using the screen-share feature and neither a microphone nor speakers/headphones are necessary but both are strongly recommended. The lessons last roughly an hour each however they can spill over this limit free of charge.

Pricing
I like to keep my pricing fair and affordable and so I charge £4/lesson. Payment can be sent over PayPal or using this link if you'd prefer to use a credit/debit card. There are some offers if lessons are bought in bulk and are as follows:
  • 10 lessons - £35
  • 20 lessons - £65
  • 30 lessons - £90
  • 40 lessons - £115
  • 50 lessons - £130
  • 60 lessons - £150
  • 1 lesson / week - £3 / week
  • 5 lessons / month - £15 / month
  • 10 lessons / month - £27.50 / month
  • 20 lessons / month - £55 / month
  • 30 lessons / month - £75 / month
  • The number of lessons given is perishable on timed packages meaning that if lessons are not used by the end of the month, they do not carry over to the next month.
  • Refunds are under my discretion. Any unauthorized charge-backs made will result in a Scam Report being made and a response to any PayPal claims you have made; linking this page and it's TOS in.
  • It is the student's responsibility to message me about lessons.
  • Terms of Service are subject to change at any time.
  • By purchasing any package from me, you automatically agree to the Terms of Service.

As an extra note, I do accept equivalent CS:GO skins as well (Reasonable bounds, cheaper by a few GBP).
Any chargebacks will result in a Scam Report being filed against you and legal action being taken due to the breaking of the Terms of Services.

High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

I'm going to quote a famous line by a wise man, "If you think knowledge is expensive, you should see how expensive stupidity is". As the end of the day, knowledge allows you to produce money - therefore it's a valid economic asset. And who in their right mind would give that away for free? If I were to teach for free, that would take up so many hours of my time I could be doing free-lance work or learning myself, therefore I'm losing money.
